Letters on demonology and witchcraft. Addressed to J. G. Lockhart, Esq / by Sir Walter Scott, Bart.

Walter Scott, John Gibson Lockhart · 1831 · London : John Murray, 1831. · 2 pictures

Published in London by John Murray in 1831, Letters on Demonology and Witchcraft is Walter Scott's essay collection addressed to J. G. Lockhart, illustrated with steel-engraved views. Both pictures show the same narrow old town street, with a tall stone tower, a stair up the wall, figures on the cobbles, and a wheelbarrow. A designer could take its tonal, sepia-toned engraved street scene as a model for atmospheric historical townscape.
