Coming to auction, an aquatint on paper by William Daniell (1769-1837) of Tynemouth, dated 1822.
16.5cm x 24cm.
It's likely that this was produced by Daniell for his monumental work "A Voyage Round Great Britain", 1814-25.

Just a quick one from me today - the last one of this seafaring trek from Percy Main.
The corner building where Church Way meeting Savile Street has been serving punters for nearly 200 years at least. Though it's Rosmarino today most will know it as the Alnwick Castle.

"The first light of day spills over Tynemouth Priory and Castle...
Perched on the edge of the North Sea, this historic coastal landmark feels timeless at sunrise...
A perfect reminder of why the North East coastline never disappoints." -Graham.
