$a The date of 1786 is also given at the end of the Invocation. This satire on the Royal Academy takes the form of a drama in one act. The work is decorated with a title-page vignette showing a faun carrying a bow, and a large goose, crowned, wearing a medal marked 'Diploma' round its neck and stuck with two arrows. A second edition was published in the same year, with a slightly re-set title-page. An expanded version was published in 1796 in the collection entitled 'An Authentic History Of The Professors Of Painting ... By Anthony Pasquin'. |
