Content Description

Provides a critical response to the work, exhibited in 1780. The writer is more intent on sythenthising the opinions than offering their own, and goes on to mention the general reception of Zoffany's other works and those by Thomas Stothard, Henry Fuseli and Edward Penny. Anderdon notes that the extract is taken from "one of the journals".
