Mezzotint. Sheet 275 x 200mm (10¾ x 8"). Trimmed within plate. Slight crease bottom right.
Reginald Heber (1783-1826) was the Church of England's second Bishop of Calcutta. His missionary hymn 'From Greenland's Icy Mountains', written in 1819 for a service in aid of the 'Society for the Propagation of the Gospel' in Wrexham, was widely sung until recently, but lost favour when it was denounced by John Betjeman and Gandhi as patronising, particularly the line ''the heathen in his blindness [bowing] down to wood and stone''. Other hymns, for example ''Holy, Holy, Holy'', remain popular. First published by Reynolds in 1824.
