• General note
  
  Discovered by curator John McPhee in 2006 during research for the exhibition Joseph Lycett: convict artist, this painting is (in 2007) the only known artwork by Lycett before he was transported to Australia. It was probably painted while Lycett awaited trial for forgery in Shrewsbury Gaol.
