William Mulready, 1845. Portrait of British artist William Mulready, who '...was never a very regular or a very industrious workman. He is a slow painter, one who achieves excellence by repeated strokes and touches. His pictures are therefore few in number, and, what is more, of a small or cabinet size. One picture a year is the utmost he ever painted; and such is the request his works are in, that a new collector must wait the turn of many years before he is likely to acquire a picture from his '. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
