White remarks that "Dublin has never had its Canaletto" and he commends Martin's drawings for their "mystery tour quality" and salutes his work in preserving for posterity "what the bull-dozer threatens". Martin specialised in topographical art and a lot of his work is buildings and streets in Dublin which have changed drastically such as the Gasometer, Camden Street, the Old Gaol in Smithfield, Fitzwilliam Street, Horseman’s Row (no longer in existence) and Winetavern Street.
