ODNB Among prints singled out for detailed consideration are Salvator Rosa's "Death of Polycrates" Waterloo’s "Tobias" and Hogarth’s "Rake’s Progress." The collector is "cautioned against indulging a desire of becoming possessed of all the works of any master. . . . against a superstitious veneration for names. . . . against making the public taste our standard. . . against rating prints' value by their scarceness. . . against buying copies for originals" and against acquiring poor impressions.

First of a series of five works with similar titles exposing Gilpin to the satire of Combe's Dr. Syntax. In June of 1770 Gilpin embarked on his first picturesque tour. "Sailing down the Wye proved a very different trip from Gilpin's earlier tame journey down the Thames: the ruined castles and mountains of Wales were indeed exciting after the flat countryside of eastern and south-eastern England. . . . here was landscape that called for description that matched his conceptions of beauty and grandeur." Barbier According to Chilvers & Osborne Oxford Dictionary of Art Gilpin was "first to establish the picturesque as an aesthetic category and by his numerous writings illustrated by his own fine aquatints he exerted a profound and lasting influence on both English and European taste in natural and artificial scenery and landscape painting."
