Historical information

The location of the original painting is unknown (it may not have survived). In 1841 J. Hitchen produced a coloured lithograph from the painting (see B 7070); another version held is attributed to lithographer S. Straker of London (B 13772) based on Hitchin's engraving. The key was published in the 'Register' newspaper on 26th March 1910, but some versions show it as 'published by Mr J.C. Hailes' suggesting that the key was available prior to the publication by the 'Register'. Other versions are held at B 2803 and B 45433.
