Thomas Hosmer Shepherd Boeken

Thomas Hosmer Shepherd was een topografische aquarellist, bekend om zijn architectuurschilderijen. Zijn werk kenmerkt zich door een nauwgezette aandacht voor detail, waarbij hij levensechte taferelen vastlegde met figuren, koetsen en paarden. Shepherds kunst diende als basis voor gravures in talrijke publicaties, waarbij zijn eerste erkenning voortkwam uit een werk gericht op de moderne Londense architectuur. Hij documenteerde ook oude Londense gebouwen voor hun sloop, en bewaarde zo een belangrijk visueel archief.
