Castles, designed landscapes and farm animals show the range of William Forrest, a Scottish engraver who lived from 1805 to 1889, in prints dating from 1849 to 1868. In The Imperial Gazetteer of Scotland he is credited as both draughtsman and engraver of Edinburgh Castle, with its new Chapel Tower, and of Murthly Castle. Landscape-gardening plates published by Fullarton turn to the laying out of grounds, and an illustration for the Encyclopaedia Britannica shows Hereford cattle and Southdown sheep.
