These are two vintage aquatint prints from 1793 of "View of CARFAX & ABINGTON, from Whiteheads Oak" and "View of NUNEHAM, from the Wood" after Joseph Farington (1747-1821), from Joseph Constantine Stadler (1755-1828). The matted colored etchings are beautifully complimented by golden frames. The frames are in great vintage conditions with a few scratches and scuffs.
The dimensions of the frames are approximately 17 3/4 x 14 inches with the visible art approximately 12 1/2 x 8 1/2 inches.

The aquatints depict a man sitting under a tree and enjoying a lovely view of Carfax & Abington. The other features two women and two children, walking along a path in the right foreground in a forest, along the Thames winding in the middle distance, where a boat sailing behind a bridge, the Nuneham House on top of a hill in the background.

Joseph Farington was born in Leigh, Lancashire, son of the vicar of Leigh and rector of Warrington. He was educated in Manchester and studied under Richard Wilson in London from 1763. He entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1769 and became an Academician in 1785. His strength was in pen, ink and wash drawings of topographical views. He made extensive sketching tours of the UK and settled in the North Country from 1776. Works made there led to the publication ‘Views of the Lakes of Cumberland and Westmorland’ (1785). In 1780 he suffered a breakdown after his wife died. In the next year he moved to London. He died on a visit to his brother in Lancashire, when he fell down steps at Didsbury Church. His personal diaries were published in 1934.
Joseph Constantine Stadler was a prolific German émigré engraver of images after his contemporaries. His engravings are wide-ranging in subject matter and include landscapes, seascapes and portraits, as well as military, sporting and decorative subjects. Stadler was employed by the leading print publisher of the time, John Boydell (1720-1804). On 23 March 1799 Stadler married Ann Elizabeth Sandman at St Anne’s Church, Soho, in London. He was living in Knightsbridge when he died at the age of 73.
