Douglas Adams and Conwy

I am sure you know the Douglas Adams paintings - the Drive etc - three of which represent Conwy. Does anyone know when Adams made the paintings? Can we date his actual visit? Again, any help would be most welcome.

Forgive my bumping this, but I'm trying to help the club find out more about its past.

Mark,

  I believe "The Drive" is signed "Douglas Adams 1893" and was published March 1894, copyright that year.

  Here is a link to a copy for sale with that info.
Douglas Adams Print 1894

You probably knew this already, but maybe not.
