The Canal was opened in 1800 and mostly completed by 1805 and its 93 miles of waterway with two long tunnels, greatly improved cargo shipping. It is now, like all the canals of England, usand#233;d mostly for pleasure cruising.John Hassell wrote and illustrated numerous topographical works, of which this is one of the most appealing, due to the beauty of the countryside through which the canal passed. In his preface, Hassell declares that the Grand Junction 'embraces a variety far exceeding that afforded by many rivers, as combining all the beauties of landscape - the elegance and splendor of the mansion and the ville - and the venerable remains of antiquity'.CONDITIONOriginal antique print in excellent condition with large margins, perfect and ready for mounting and framing.SIZEOverall size including margins approx 210mm x135mmAll our prints and maps are 100% guaranteed original antiques as dated.We do not sellreproductions.WE ARE HAPPY TO COMBINE POSTAGE FOR AN UNLIMITED AMOUNT OF PRINTS.PaymentWe prefer payment via PAYPAL.
