In den WarenkorbHand-colored etching and aquatint, 13 ½" x 37 ½" sheet. As pointed out by Stokes (1918) the "Panoramic View of New York Taken From the North River" exists in different states; the present copy was published in the 1840s and unlike earlier editions, it shows a two-funnel steamer, as well as the dome of the Merchants' Exchange on…Wall Street. The latter also suggests that Havell drew his view some time after the fire of December 16, 1835 when the first Merchants' Exchange was destroyed; the new building was only completed in 1840. Together with the additional publisher's line, this points towards the identification of the Arader print as the fifth state of the famous cityscape. As for the colorist, it is safe to recognize the hand of Henry Havell - Robert's brother - in the delicate handling of the blues. He lived in New York during the years 1844-45 and is recorded as "printcolourer" (sic) at 7 ½ Bowery. Robert Havell is best known as the formidable engraver of John James Audubon's "Birds of America". As one of the pre-eminent English engravers, his name first appears in connection with the Audubon elephant folios. In 1839 he emigrated to the United States and after an initial stay in Brooklyn, he settled in Ossining and Tarrytown where he perfected his skills in the engraving and aquatinting of city views, as well as in the depiction of landscape scenes. Havell is considered a member of the Hudson River School. Lit. Isaac Newton Phelps Stokes: "The Iconography of Manhattan Island", New York 1915-1928. #10165F.

In den WarenkorbHand-colored etching and aquatint, 13 ½" x 37 ½" sheet. Excellent condition. In his discussion of Havell's panoramas of New York, Stokes (1918) suggests that the view from the East River is based on a later drawing than its companion piece. It furthermore seems to have been the product of at least two hands, as the vessels are d…ifferent from Robert Havell's more eloquent style. They have been attributed to James Fulton Pringle who conceived them as staffage elements lacking the agency of, for instance, the "British Queen" or first transatlantic steamboat in Havell's twin composition of Manhattan. The view from the East River is nevertheless an impressive testament to urban development in the United States and the bourgeois taste in documenting socio-economic growth through high-quality prints. It is thus not surprising that Havell's iconic panorama is a rarity on the market with the Rare Book Hub database recording only two sales in over 70 years. The Metropolitan Museum of Art owns a copy from the collection of Edward W. C. Arnold. In its Spring Bulletin (1988), the museum captures the zeitgeist of the Golden Century of American Printmaking - a description that also applies to Havell's panorama: "The demand for images of buildings, civic events, and broad vistas made this an active period for printmakers of all degrees of competence."
