- Abstract
-
"Johnson and Boswell walk together; their landlord, wearing a knitted cap and tartan stockings, walks in front (left) holding a candle; he turns round smiling up at the couple. Johnson walks with a heavy, dignified melancholy, leaning on his stick, Boswell walks jauntily, as in BMSat 7034, his hands thrust in the pockets of his short coat, the Journal under his arm, his pen behind his ear. Behind (right) walks a bare-legged waiter holding a lantern. On the stone wall of a dark building (left) two Gothic niches are indicated."--British Museum online catalogue.
