The Connfel, after Rating what he conceived to be the law on this fajta, and after many obfer vations on the evidence on the part of the Plaintiff, in order to hew that the Ilaintiff had not ful fi lled his contrad, called fourteen *metres who were .

The fubtlance of ' their evi dence was, that this being an hi(torical cotnpo fition on a modern fubjea, all the figures that were introduced (and there were near 6o of them) were portraits. The great circumnance that recom-, mended the original piaure was the liketteffes of the figures introduced. In proportion as the like , I Wks were thong, the public at large admi re d it * and in proportion as it was deficient in that, they condemned it. When futh a comporition went abroad, foreigners not being fo much interelted itl the likeneffes of the figures introduced, attended chiefly to the executive power and compofttion of the *miff. The witnefes raid the ,Print of the . Plaintiff was extremely deficient in the likeneles of the figures, and from the talte and abilities with which other parts of the Print were executed, it was fuppofed that this defea proceeded more from Rant of attention than of full in the Plaintiff — that Mr. Copley could not take and pnblifh the Feint continently with a doe attention to his own aliantaer and reputation—that it was the dirty of ea Engraver, who engaged to copy a Print, to copy eorreeily and accurately the likeneffes, and front the defe4 of this Print in that refpea, it could be of no fervice to the Defendant. The Counfel for the Plaintiff in reply contended, that die Plaintiff had fully performed his eontraa. The Defendant was acquainted with his abilities from his having aMiled Bartolozri in the fir ft plate. to whom he gave aOOO/. an d as he. engaget with the Plaintiff for 8001. it clearly fliewedfrom the inferior price, that he mutt have exp e ll e d an inferior performance ; and it had been proved by thofe that were acquainted with the Plaintiff's works, that this Print was the ben thineffe had ever executed.
