| Description |
English: 'Nelson's reception at Naples' [1798] The inscribed title on the drawing of 'Nelson's arrival at Naples, the barge of Sir William Hamilton' appears to be by the artist, with other notes to the publisher cut off down the right edge. The ship is the 'Vanguard' arriving at Naples after Nelson's victory at the Battle of the Nile in 1798, with a fanciful image of Mount Vesuvius behind. This is the second second of a group of 11 designs for wood-engravings (from 32 that Foster did) to illustrate the 1854 edition of Southey's 'Life of Nelson' published by David Bogue, London. This one formed the heading to Chapter VI on page 187.The others, not all in necessarily finished form and not in chronological order, are PAE5373-PAE5383. Other images in the edition were done by Edward Duncan (10) or reproduced pictures by Richard Westall, Sir Thomas Lawrence and other uncredited but mostly identifiable sources. The title here is as published. For Foster's full contributions to the edition see PAE5373. [PvdM 9/15] |
