  • 1820.03.-/ maison de ventes : Robins (John). Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[Reading the Will. This subject admits of such a great display of variety of Character arising from the many different persons interested in the irrevocable Will, that the Artist had ample scope for his Talents, and the result must convince every one that he has fully comprehended it, by the faithful delineation of the various Characters depicted in this admirable painting. Every Figure tells his own tale, and in each countenance may be read the feelings excited by the Testament. The subject is well composed and coloured, and the effect powerful; all the subordinate parts are painted with precision and truth, and may with justice be ranked with Wilkie. We have to regret that this admirable Artist died last year, at a premature age, probably hastened by his intense application to his beloved Art (Bird)|Reading the Will.
