| Production | This drawing was offered for sale to the Museum as anonymous but is clearly related to the monument of Daniel Lock in the chapel of Trinity College, Cambridge. This drawing is in many ways comparable to other Roubilliac drawings, for example, for the Argyll Monument (museum number 8381). |
