One of this series of views tiles engraved by L T Swetnam around 1885, this of the corner of Cowgate and St Mary's Street in Edinburgh, named examples of this scene are entitled 'Cow Gate Foot, Edinburgh'. One of the more popular landscape series still not so easy to collect the full set. Of all Minton tiles these are the ones we find most often originally framed as art objects rather than fitted in to fireplaces, washstands etc or on walls, An earlier example with LTS, Swetnam's initial, engraved bottom left corner, later examples have the name of the view.

Verso very clean, embossed Mintons etc.
