The architect Juan de Madrazo travelled around Western Europe and most of Spain in the middle decades of the 19th century. The initial aim of his travels was to study architecture, bringing with him the latest European developments. On his repeated visits to England he visited the Isle of Wight, as documented in this photograph from his collection. Among the architectural monuments he examines is Shanklin Church on the Isle of Wight. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
