"The Corn Bin" is a mezzotint engraving of the Prince of Wales in his stable with another man who possibly worked for him. In the bottom left hand corner it says, "Painted by G.Morland" (George Morland), and in the right corner it says, "Engraved by J.R.Smith, Mezzotinto Engraver to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales".  It was published on May 1, 1799, Ram original, by King Street Covent Garden in London, England.

It is the original size, 23" x 31", and has been museum mounted. It is in excellent condition!

John Raphael Smith was one of the most celebrated engravist of his time and assumed to be the best mezzotint engraver to ever live.  He is famous for other mezzotint engravings he did such as "The Slave Trade" on Feb.1, 1791, and was also a skilled painter and well known for his portraits of political figures such as: Frederick Duke of Schomeerg, William Prince of Orange, and Field Marshall Keith.  Smith was born in 1752 and died in Doncaster, England in 1812.

My information came from the Davenport Auction Catalog, and The Mezzotint History and Technique by Carol Wax which came from the New Orleans Museum of Art.  The painting was purchased from a castle in Scotland.
