Original 1893 4 1/8 inch x 7 1/8 inch Engraving titled THE VALLEY OF THE LLUGWY.

River Llugwy is a tributary of the River Conwy, and has its source at Ffynnon Llugwy, a lake in the Carneddau range of mountains in Snowdonia in north-west Wales.

From the painting by Benjamin Williams Leader (1831 - 1923). A Victorian-era painter whose primary subject was English landscapes. His subjects ranged from riversides at dusk to country scenes of quaint homesteads or churches. He began his career working as an engineer, but after much persistence on his part, his father let him pursue his art. Benjamin Williams Leader's paintings show his attention to detail, love of bright colors, and clever techniques when capturing natural light.
