| In addition to being a painter, John Martin was a major mezzotint
engraver and for significant periods of his life he earned more from
his engravings than his paintings. In 1823, Martin was commissioned
by Samuel Prowett, an American publisher, to illustrate Paradise
Lost by John
Milton, However, before the
first 24 engravings were completed he wascommissioned to do a
second set of 24 engravings on smaller plates. |
