Theft by an ayah of an English child from a bungalow while the mother's back is turned
- Scope & Content:
-
Theft by an ayah of an English child from a bungalow while the mother's back is turned. c.1825.
Pen-and-ink and water-colour; 3.5 by 6 ins.
Note: Original drawing either for or after ‘Confessions of an Oxonian’ (London, 1826), iii, plate 33, engraved by J. Findlay. This book was reputedly written by 'Thomas Little', perhaps a pseudonym for the publisher J.J. Stockdale. The name of the artist who made the drawings for Findlay's engravings is not, however, known. For a discussion of the book, see J.R. Abbey, ‘Scenery of Great Britain and Ireland in aquatint and lithography, 1770-1860’ (London, 1952), no.281.
