- Abstract:
- Four watercolors depicting scenes from accounts published in periodicals of the early 1820s, including The Mirror of Literature, Amusement and Instruction (volume I, 1822-23), John Long's Voyages and Travels of an Indian Interpreter and Trader (1791). The Mirror (November 1822) and Knapp and Baldwin's Newgate Calendar (1824)., The first drawing, 'Sultan Mahamoud punishing a Ravisher', from Knapp and Baldwin's Newgate Calendar, 1824, shows the Sultan kneeling surrounded by four women and another man with a dagger in his handl, The second drawing 'Janvier About to Kill the Indian Who had Relieved His Hunger' illustrates the tale of Charles Janvier who with two other servants had been sent by their master, Mr. Fulton, to catch supplies of meat and fish. Saved from hunger by a passing native Canadian, Janvier kills and eats the stranger, a fate he later inflicts on one of his fellow servants, The third sketch, 'A Miser Distracted', is perhaps a depiction of Aesop's fable 'The Miser and his Gold', in which a miser concentrates all his wealth into one lump of gold which he buries before it is stolen from him. Here he is shown kneeling on the ground, arms extended in a gesture of surprise as a couple in the distance run towards a town in the distance, the man clasping a bag, and The fourth and final drawing shows a scene from 'Rescue of the Emperor Basilius Maredo', as he is snagged by a stag whilst hunting; he is saved by the sword of a servant who is subsequently sentenced to death for drawing his sword in the presence of the Emperor
