Note 1 — CATALOGUE OF HOGARTH'S PRINTS.[1] (continued 3)
Reading edition
Among the prints bequeathed by the late Mr. Forrest to his executor Mr. Coxe, is this head cut out of a proof, and touched up with Indian ink by Hogarth. Mr. Forrest, in an inscription on the back of the paper to which it is affixed, observes it was a present to him from Mrs. Hogarth.
With these prints are likewise several early impressions from other plates by our artist; and in particular a March to Finchley uncommonly fine, and with the original spelling of prusia uncorrected even by a pen. I am told that both the head and this, with other engravings in the collection of the late Mr. Forrest, will be sold by auction in the course of the Winter 1786.
