A View in the Island of Jamaica, of Roaring River Estate, belonging to William Beckford Esq.r near Savannah la Marr; To whom this Plate is Dedicated by his most Obliged Servant, John Boydell. No. 2.
Drawn on the Spot, & painted by George Robertson. Engraved by Thomas Vivares.
Published Mar: 25th, 1778 by Jn.o Boydell Engraver in Cheapside London.
Engraving. Sheet 400 x 550mm (15¾ x 21¾"). Trimmed within plate. Bit messy in borders.
Plate 2 of six views of Jamaica by George Robertson, of which three were his patron William Beckford's sugar plantations in Jamaica. The illegitimate nephew of Alderman Beckford, William inherited four such estates but squandered his wealth (for example employing Mozart as his son's piano teacher) and lost his holdings. He returned to London in 1776 and seems to have sold the paintings to Boydell for publishing. The John Carter Brown Library's exhibition, 'Aestheticizing the Landscape of Sugar', describes the engravings as 'the most aesthetically ambitious views of Jamaica published in the eighteenth century'.
