St Helier viewed from Fort Regent
This is St Helier, viewed from the sea in 1868 - or is it? That's the description which came with the picture in 2016, although it did not look much like St Helier. Now we are are told that it is from a book of 1786 views around the British Isles. Further research suggests that the engraving, a print from which is in the British Museum, was made in 1868 from an earlier drawing by Clint (presumably George Clint, who lived from 1770 to 1854). It still does not look much like St Helier and we are investigating further.
