$a From 1818 to 1821 Mrs. Bray had been married to Thomas Stothard's son, Charles Alfred (1786-1821). This account of her former father-in-law praises him as one of the foremost history-painters of his day and one of its most prolific illustrators. The frontispiece shows a portrait of Thomas Stothard by Harlow. The many in-text illustrations show works by Stothard, published and unpublished. The portrait is a lithograph; most in-text illustrations are printed in sepia. |
