- Curator's comments
- This drawing was registered on its acquisition by the British Museum as a view of West Cowes on the Isle of Wight and catalogued as such by Binyon (LB1). However, at some point before its acquisition by the Museum, the identities of this view and the one it was acquired with were switched. Thus 1875,0508.808 is not a view of Yarmouth, as it was catalogued originally (LB2) but in fact is a view of West Cowes.
