Description: From a later edition of the complete works of Deuchar (A Collection of etchings after the most eminent Masters ..., first published in 1803.) This ed. which varies quite a bit from the earlier version, with less prints, but many more prints by Deuchar himself and others, we estimate was printed around 1870. The original work, was printed in a limited number for Deuchar's art friends. As such they are quite scarse. The date in our titles is the date the etchings were originally etched.
Artists and Engravers: Made by 'David Deuchar' after 'Cornelis Bega'. David Deuchar (1743-1808) worked as an engraver and etcher in Edinburgh. Cornelis Pietersz. Bega (1620-1664) was a Dutch genre painter, draughtsman and engraver from Haarlem. He was the son of Pieter J. Begeyn and he was a pupil of Adriaen van Ostade. He travelled to Germany, Switzerland and Italy.
