Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

Richard England ('A general view of Old England') NPG D10869

by and published by Robert Dighton

Richard England is depicted in the uniform of a Lieutenant-General, a rank he had held since 1803. A related drawing in the Royal Collection, but depicting England standing, seems to have served as the basis of this etching. The drawing is inscribed 'A General View of Old England taken from the Citadel at Plymouth'. The citadel, a fort begun in the reign of Charles II, was the military headquarters of Plymouth. Richard England had been appointed Lieutenant-Governor of Plymouth in 1803.
