Views in Greece
Views in Greece is a set of aquatint topographical views by the traveller and archaeologist Edward Dodwell, published in 1821 for readers of travel literature and archaeology. The plates show Greek towns, rocky landscapes and ancient ruins drawn from life, with figures and goats placed in the foreground. A designer might borrow their layered horizon compositions, warm hand-coloured tints and the way stone walls and ruins are framed against distant hills.
