A collection of 10 architectural engravings. The designs are intricately rendered and display beautiful symmetry. The set consists of 9 engravings by the architect James Paine, completed circa 1800. They depict the facades of British buildings, including an elaborate design for a ceiling. The 10th is a print of a Genoan palazzo design by Galeazzo Alessi, printed by the publishing house Lichtdruck von Römmler & Jonas. This last print was made later than the Paine engravings.
