Gulnare and the Seyd; Gulnare sitting in the left foreground, Seyd standing behind on the right, about to draw his sword.
Illustration to Byron’s ‘The Corsair’, 1814.
Engraved by John Henry Robinson (1796 – 1871). A line, stipple and occasional mezzotint engraver from Bolton. He was apprenticed to James Heath between 1814-1818 and then set up initially as a book-illustrator. He engraved portraits and prints after popular contemporary painters, e.g. Landseer. He fought a long battle to win respect from the Royal Academy as a line-engraver and was eventually elected Associate Member of the Royal Academy in 1856.
From a painting by John Rogers Herbert (1810 – 1890). Most notable as a precursor of Pre-Raphaelitism.
