William
DANIELL,1769-1837
'A Voyage Round Great Britain' In early 1813,
Daniell conceived of the ambitious plan to travel around the entire
coastline of Britain while producing an illustrated work of the voyage.
,In 1814, artist engraver William Daniell set out to record the people,
places, towns and villages around Britain's coastline. Eleven years
later he completed his magnum opus having travelled from Land's End to
John 0'Groats via the west coast, then back to Land's End via the
east.The result was a collection of 308 aquatint engravings, the last
great artist's voyage before photography was invented. images all 9" x
11",
William Daniell, an engraver and painter,
belonged to a family of English artists. He was raised by his uncle,
Thomas Daniell, a painter and engraver, lived with him in India from
1784-94, and worked with him on publications based on his travels. In
1795 he settled in London, where he remained for the rest of his life.
He collaborated with Thomas on A Voyage Round Great Britain (1814-25).
Daniell was a member of the Royal Academy and exhibited there from 1795
to 1838
This series was published in 8 volumes during
the period 1814 to 1825. The journey was initially started in 1813 and
was a joint project with William Daniell producing the drawings and
William Ayton the text. This partnership lasted for the first two
volumes, thereafter Daniell produced the text as well. The latter text
relates to the plates and is relatively pedestrian, whereas Ayton used
the voyage for his own agenda and sociological interests, his text is
only loosely related to the plates and concentrates on the manners and
customs of people he met.308 handcoloured aquatints.
Thomas Sutton in The Daniells Artists and
Travellers outlines the journey as follows: . . "During the summer of
1813 Ayton and Daniell surveyed the coast from Land's End up to
Holyhead, where the first year's voyage closed near the middle of
October (plates 1-26). The following year their journeys re commenced
at Holyhead, at the beginning of August, and proceeded as far as
Creetown or Dunsky Castle in Kircudbright. This at any rate, was the
limit of Ayton's tour (plates 27-56). Daniell started off alone from
Wigtown, early in the summer and finished his survey of the entire
coast of Scotland, as far as Dundee, which he reached in October. This
very lengthy tour was rendered possible by an exceptionally fine spell
of weather (plates 57-195).
Six years elapsed before Daniell commenced the
further prosecution of his journey. Arriving at St. Andrews on August
4th, 1821, he surveyed the remaining portion of the Scottish coast, and
the east coast of England as far as Southend, which he reached towards
the end of September (plates 196-224). The following year he left
Sheerness on July 28th, and explored the south coast as far as Torquay,
whence he returned to London on September 27th (plates 225-277). The
concluding tour, a comparatively short one, commenced from Torquay on
Thursday, August 21st, 1823, and embraced the final portion of the
south coast to Land's end, which was reached for the second time on
September 14th (plates 278-308). "
