George Orleans Delamotte – A South Wales Sketch Book c. 1816-1835

George Orleans Delamotte was a skilled topographical artist.

A sketch book of his which is now held by the West Glamorgan Archive Service contains many accurate and pleasing views focussed on Swansea, Briton Ferry and the Vale of Neath, and also includes scenes from across South Wales.

This book by Bernard Morris contains high-quality reproductions of these views with topographical descriptions, and a biography of the artist and discussion of his work.
