This rearly seen draft image of the #walrushunt scene by #JohnWebber (1778) received delightful discussion in #maritimebritain conference last week.

🦄 'Sea horse' was widely used to mean 'walrus' in the 17th and 18th C English; compare with Norwegian and Icelandic words like morse and rosmarus

John Webber sailed with Captain Cook - but here he's painting Goodrich Castle on the Wye. The title says "Hertfordshire." The castle is in Herefordshire. Someone mislabeled it centuries ago.

Watercolor over graphite, now at Yale Center for British Art.

Watercolor over graphite by John Webber showing the Gothic ruins of Goodrich Castle. Pointed arches rise from weathered stone walls, with vegetation and climbing plants clinging to the masonry in places. Lush green and yellow-green trees grow through and around the ruins, their foliage softening the angular stonework. A small, indistinct figure appears near the Gothic doorway at the far left, dwarfed by the architecture. The palette is muted — cool blue-grey shadows on the stone contrast with warmer greens
