Artist's Comments

This is an old engraving of the ruined abbey at Much Wenlock in Shropshire, UK. It was made by some unknown artist (possibly after a sketch by Gastineau but that's a guess on my part) and published in The Leisure Hour magazine in the 1880s or 1890s. So, as far s I can tell, it's out of copyright, since anyone experienced enough to make this was probably dead by 1937, some 50 to 60 years after the print was made (70 years ago, the applicable rule since it was published in the UK).

There is a 1600x1200 pixel version on my Web site at [link] too.

You can also use this image for stock (both commercial and non-commercial) if you like. I can also give you the scan file, which is at 2400dpi, about 20,000 by 15,000 pixels.

I have also submitted this for a print.

Great find! The details are so rich ... amazing!
Thanks! Yes. I've submitted it as a print, too. We'll see if anyone ever buys it. I doubt it :D

I wish :D but no, someone else did, some time before 1890 or so. It's 120 years old; I just scanned it.
