Walker Sculp." [sculpsit. i.e. engraved it] and "I Johnson Liverpool". The engraver Richard Walker is recorded at various Liverpool addresses between 1790 and 1808. Joseph Johnson is thought to be a potter of that name who worked at Newburgh some 15 miles from Liverpool. The capture of Quebec from the French by Wolfe in 1759 sealed the possession of Canada by the British. Wolfe's death in the hour of victory sealed his status as a national hero. |
