About this work

This print shows a man, John Boydell. He's the main figure in the image. The print was published by T. Cadell and W. Davies in 1814, which is interesting because it tells us about the people involved in making it available to the public. The details in the print are a result of the artist's skill and the printing technique used, which is why it's worth looking at the work of artist: Stuart, Gilbert.
