[21] The engraving prefixed to this memoir is from West's celebrated picture, and represents the moment when news is brought that the victory is in favour of the English. This picture attracted extraordinary notice, not only for the event it represents, but also for its general excellence, and from the circumstance of the characters being dressed in appropriate costume, and not habited as Greeks or Romans, which was considered the classic dress in historical pictures of this period. It is one of the best of our historical pictures, and the painter has happily and poetically introduced the Indian warrior, who is watching the dying hero, to see if he equalled in fortitude the warriors of his own savage race.
