notes:
|
The engraver may be John Pine (1690-1756), chief engraver of seals and compiler of an eighteenth-century survey of London. Between 1718 and 1722, George Shelvocke completed the last of the English buccaneer circumnavigations. His account has achieved a place in literary history for its story of the unlucky albatross, immortalized by Smauel Taylor Coleridge in his Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
