Summary
Print, line engraving, The Castle of Ischia (after Clarkson Stanfield, RA) by Edward Goodall (1795 – London 1870). Castle set upon a cliff. The print was made after Clarkson Stanfield's painting: 'Castello d'Ischia, from the Mole, Italy', exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1841(9), and acquired by Sunderland Museum in 1981 with the note: "On Monday, December 24th, 1838, it blew a heavy gale from the south-west; several small craft from Procida and Baiae, moored without the mole that connects the castle with the town of Ischia, parted from their felucca - was entirely wrecked, and it was with difficulty the crew were saved." Displayed within a glazed Hogarth frame.
