Thomas Hosmer Shepherd Knihy

Thomas Hosmer Shepherd byl malíř, jehož díla se vyznačovala mimořádnou pozorností k detailům. Specializoval se na topografické akvarely, často zachycující architektonické památky s živoucími scénami, ve kterých nechyběly postavy, kočáry ani koně. Jeho umění sloužilo jako základ pro ocelorytiny v mnoha publikacích, přičemž jeho první uznání přišlo s publikací zaměřenou na moderní londýnskou architekturu. Shepherd také zaznamenával staré londýnské budovy před jejich demolicí, čímž přispěl k uchování historického dědictví.
