Note: Hart, writing in 1904, does not offer a date for this engraving.  The Holden Collection sale catalog (1910) states (lot 184) that the engraving was published in Edinburgh in 1791 but supplies no source for the information. The engraving also appeared in the Mitchell Collection sale catalog (1906), lot 148, and the Whelen Collection sale catalog (1909), lot 103.
