East View of the East Gate |

Description |
Exeter’s East Gate is shown with buildings on either side. The figures in the foreground are out of scale. A man approaches the gate arch on horseback; another waves a cane in conversation in the foreground. Seagulls fly above. The East Gate was first built by the Romans, who built the walls round the city. William the Conqueror laid siege to the city of Exeter from the East Gate in 1086. During the early-17th Century the building was used as the Salutation Inn. The Gate was eventually pulled down in 1784. This painting was likely executed as a memorial or record of the East Gate. |
