He made these drawings during a visit to Italy in 1771-76 and, until recently, they were preserved in an album that descended in the family. Interestingly, each composition relates closely to a drawing in a sketchbook that Joseph Wright of Derby (1734-1797) used in Rome in 1774-75 (57.102.1(1-44)). These visual links suggest that the two artists sketched together and took it in turns to use an optical instrument. While the outlines of their related compositions are close was then developed in markedly different ways. This is drawing relates to no. 9 in the group (its counterproof) and to Wright's sketchbook page 57.102.1(5). View more. Ruin Monument Near Rome.
