The Reverend William Gilpin,
British 1724-1804-
Five landscape views with lakes and mountains;

Note:
Unlike his brother Sawrey Gilpin (1733-1807), the Reverend William Gilpin did not work as a professional artist. He was a proponent of the 'picturesque' landscape, writing passionately about the principles of landscape painting, and producing travel literature in his attempt to discover the best vistas.
