. English: A grazing horse [Bray album] No. 5 of 74 (PAJ1976 - PAJ2049) Dated and signed 'May 74 AVprGB' (to the life by Gabriel Bray), this sketch of what is probably a riding horse (from the docked tail) is likely to have been done in Kent, while Bray was at home before being appointed to the 'Pallas' for a voyage to Africa later in the year. It is one of 73 drawings by Bray (plus one signed 'NF 1782') preserved in a 19th-century album. They have now been separately remounted. Bray (1750-1823), was second lieutenant of the 44-gun ‘Pallas’ under Captain the Hon. William Cornwallis (1744-1819

Bray (1750-1823), was second lieutenant of the 44-gun ‘Pallas’ under Captain the Hon. William Cornwallis (1744-1819) – later a well-known admiral - on two voyages (1774-77) to report on British interests in West Africa, including the slave trade. The dated drawings refer only to the first of these, from December 1774 to September 1775, though a few may be from the second. Others comprise country views, some of Deal, Kent (where Bray may have come from), and others of social-history interest. A horse grazing . May 1774.
