Description
Engraved by F. Bartolozzi after a design by Cipriani and used as Plate No. 1 in John Hawkesworth. An account of the voyages... for making discoveries in the southern hemisphere... 4to. Since it is seldom cold enough in Hawaii to wear furs around a blazing fire, this is probably a scene from Tierra del Fuego.
Giovanni Battista Cipriani (1727 -1785) was an Italian painter and engraver, who lived in England from 1755. He is also called Giuseppe Cipriani by some authors. Cipriani was a founding member (1768) of the Royal Academy, and designed its diploma, which was engraved by Francesco Bartolozzi. He was much employed by publishers, for whom he made drawings in pen and ink, sometimes colored.
