Description

Watercolour over pencil on two sheets of joined paper. This important early watercolour dates from circa 1814/15 after Cox had moved to Hereford to teach at Miss Croucher's Drawing School. It relates to a more finished version of this view painted in 1815 for Samuel Cane, a Hereford Surgeon, and now in Hereford City Art Gallery.

In 1837, Butcher's Row on Hereford High St. was torn down during redevelopment of the city. Only the large twin gabled house on the right house of the picture still remains.
