  • 1817.01.14/ maison de ventes : Hoggart and Phillips. Vente de l'œuvre décrite comme [[St. Cecilia. The natural and divine Expression of Countenance, the beautifully expressive Attitude of the Figure, the Richness and Variety of the Drapery, with the Simplicity of the Folds, render this Picture truly fascinating; though Orpheus could lead the savage race, And trees up-rooted left their place, Sequacious of the lyre; But bright Cecilia rais'd the wonder higher, When to her organ vocal breath was giv'n, An angel heard, and straight appear'd, Mistaking earth for heav'n (D.

The Works of Wilson have greatly conduced to place British Reputation in its proper Orb: from the Time of his producing the Classical Specimens of his Powers, we may date the Elevation of the English Name to its illustrious Situation. The Composition of this and the following Picture is natural, chaste, and beautiful. Still let me pierce into the midnight depth Of yonder grove, of wildest, largest growth, That, forming high in air a woodland choir, Nods o'er the mount beneath: at every step, Solemn and slow, the shadows blacker fall, And all is awful listening gloom around.
