Sketches by Seymour was published in various versions about 1836. The copy used for this online version was published by Thomas Fry, London. Some of the 90 plates note only Seymour's name, while many are inscribed “Engravings by H. Wallis from sketches by Seymour.” The printed book appears to be a compilation of five smaller volumes.
These engravings are much older than those of Gustave Dore. In fact, Dore would have been only about four years ago when this book was published. Nevertheless, they provide an interesting comparison to Dore's work.
