Agricultural Employment.
Published, October 18th 1825 by R.H. Laurie, No 53 Fleet Street, London.
Engraved writing sheet, watermark J. Green & Son. 420 x 360mm (16½ x 14¼"). Cracks and tears in edges restored. Creasing, small margins.
A writing sheet with eight agricultural scenes. Above is a large view of Stanborough Farm, with six panels down the sides (Sowing, Reaping, Going to Market, Ploughing, Sheep Shearing and 'Gathering Apple's'), and a vignette of a hay wain at the bottom. Only one panel is humorous, perhaps as a treat for a bored pupil: 'Gathering Apple's' in the bottom right shows a man falling head-first from a tree.
