Mr Cartwright Consul at Constantinople and his Albanian.
D Wilkie ft. Constantinople Novr 1st 1840. [Lithographed by Joseph Nash.]
[London: Graves & Warmsley, 1843.]
Tinted lithograph. Sheet 535 x 360mm (21 x 14¼") very large margins.
John Cartwright, consul-general at Constantinople from 1817-44, during which time the Levant Company was wound up, with Cartwright taking on the role formerly played by the Company's representative.

David Wilkie (1785-1841) set out for the East in 1840 to gather material for a series of biblical illustrations, visiting Constantinople, Beirut, Jerusalem, Cairo, and Alexandria. He died at sea on his return journey, before he could turn his sketches into the intended oils: This plate appeared in his 'Sketches in Turkey, Syria and Egypt' published in 1843.
