The painting took whole year, and is con-
sdered the finest Of the entire list Of numerous
populor productions by Lili M Spencer. The
engraving was the labor OF four years, by
three eminent aTtisis--John Rodgers, Samuel
Halpin, and Samuel uolycr; The last named
having been induced TO come from Europe TO
finish it. The cngravers have ably seconded
the successfuLlabors OF the painter. None but
artists can fully appreciate the skill and labor
lavishcd on this engraving The general ef-
tect is very fine and impressive, and the deli
rate finish to the heads will bear the most mi
mute inspection. The union Of line and stippe
is executed with unusual ability, and their
skilful combination has greatly contributed TO
the success of the engravers in this unsurpass-
ed proof Of their genius.
