Engraved by Tomas Carlos Capuz in 1862, this image is a testament to Capuz's exceptional skill as an artist. Fowke's dignified presence is captured in exquisite detail, with his head and shoulders forming the focal point of the portrait. Sporting fashionable Victorian attire, Fowke's distinctive mutton chops, whiskers, and mustache add character to his already striking features.

This engraving serves as a tribute to his immense talent and contributions to British architecture. The print originates from The Universal Museum publication known as El Museo Universal.
