Columbus-J. Sartain
Very intriguing image after a painting by J.M.W. Turner. There are angels leading the way in the clouds. This was “Engraved for the Eclectic Museum by John Sartain”. Some foxing on the left side and was cut fairly close (1/4 in.) on the right. Additional information about John Sartain in the “About the artist” section.
The Fall of Troy-Sartain
Very nice image after a painting by George Jones, RA (1786-1869). Slight crease across the print. Unable to verify which Sartain to attribute the engraving to.
