Book excerpt: Excerpt from George Morland, Painter, London (1763-1804) Morland family, and because it is by an artist of some standing and knowledge. No attempt in Dawe's bio graphy, or in these pages, is made to extenuate George Morland's faults, but the reader will be gratified to learn that the artist's life, which is invariably depicted by recent writers in such dark colours, possessed many good features. Like his contemporary, Robert Burns, George Morland may lay claim to that gentle forbearance which, in consideration of sterling work performed, ought always to be extended to genius.
