About this work
This pen and ink drawing by John Hamilton Mortimer, dated 1765, is titled The Reviewers' Cave and combines study sheets on the left with a larger scene on the right. The right side shows a dark cave filled with a seated figure surrounded by a crowd, with a reclining figure floating among clouds above. The left side holds several sketched heads, seated men, and a bust on a pedestal.
