Légende

National Exhibition in Regent-street, [London] - No. 122 - "Scene from Moore's 'Epicurean'" - painted by O. R. Campbell, 1850. 'Mr. O. R. Campbell seems to divide his time pleasantly and profitably between poetic compositions (such as the one now before us) and the solid pudding of portraiture, for which he seems to have many qualities likely to lead to excellence in the most lucrative branch of his art'. "The Epicurean" was a novel by Thomas Moore, published in 1827. It relates the story of Alciphron, leader of the Epicurean sect in Athens in the 3rd century AD. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
