Notes | Leyland bought the picture “in lieu of a Hero commissioned some years previously and never executed, for which 800 gns. had been paid” ( Surtees , vol. 1, 144 [no. 244.r.1]). WMR says he bought it in late 1880, but he did not take possession until February 1881 (see Doughty and Wahl's Letters, vol. IV, 1842-46, and WMR's DGR as Designer and Writer, 110-11). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
