About the Item

Late Georgian period Mezzotint Etching print By English Artist Henry Pidding titled Massa Out “Sambo Werry Dry”. The print features a young man seated by a table on which are keys marked 'cellar', pouring wine from a bottle into a glass, and addressing a dog that is watching him. The letter with title and dedication by the artist to the owner of the painting, Lord Charles Townshend, and with "Painted and Engraved by Henry Pidding" and "London Published for the artist Decr. 8th 1828 by Pidding & Co. No.1 Cornhill" A fine mezzotint on woven paper by Pidding (1797 – 1864) depicts a black man sitting at a table near the window, pouring out a glass for himself with a dog sitting at his feet.
