EDL008 - Edward Lear. Tirana, Albania, with a view of the Lana River and the old Tanners’ Bridge (Ura e Tabakëve), 28 September 1848. “The immediate neighbourhood of Tyrana is delightful. Once outside the town and you enjoy the most charming scenes of quiet, among splendid planes, and the clearest of streams. The afternoon was fully occupied in drawing on the road from Elbassan, whence the view of the town is beautiful.” Edward Lear in Albania (London 2008), p. 50.
