The late Mr. H. P. Parker, 1874. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. Caubert. 'The death of this artist, who was much esteemed in the north of England, has lately been mentioned. He was founder of the School of Design at Sheffield, in which he was aided by Dr. Harwood of that town, and by the well-known painter, Mr. B. R. Haydon. At Newcastle, where he long resided, the establishment of the Academy of Arts was in great part due to him. Among his own works of considerable merit are "John Wesley's Escape from Fire," now in the Wesleyan Centenary Hall, Bishopsgate-street; "The Wreck of the Forfarshire," with portraits of Grace Darling and her father; "The Covenanter," "Smugglers" and "Poachers," and "Looking In and Looking Out".' From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
