MORLAND, George. The fruits of early industry & oeconomy. London, T. Simpson, 1789.Large mezzotint engraving after George Morland by W. Ward with below two, four line poems, by Samuel Collings. Ca. 46 x 35 cm. Beautiful image after the painting made in 1789 by George Morland (1763-1804), one of the most successful genre painters of his time. 'The title of this fictional scene implies that the diligent oversight of the businessmen-presumably owners of the dockyard outside the window and the country estate over the mantel-has enabled the family to enjoy richly patterned carpets, wine, and glassware. The young Black servant holding a basket of fresh fruit is a reminder of how much British wealth depended on enslaved labor and the slave trade in this period. African servants were considered a mark of social status at the time, and the presence of such a figure in this picture draws attention to disparities of power, privilege, and income' (Philadelphia Museum of Art).

A fascinating depiction of the loss of a French man-of-war steamer Le Papin, and half her crew on 6 December 1845 off Mazagan, now El Jadida, in Morocco. Le Papin was one of the vessels destined to form the French squadron on the coast of Africa for the suppression of the slave trade, and was on her way to Senegal, intending to call at Mogador. 'I have this moment heard from the office of the British consul of the total wreck on the coast, between Azmoor and Mazagan, of another French man of war steamer, of 650 tons burden, and 140 horse power. The details are very shocking, and the number of lives lost are 77, including the captain and all the officers. with the exception of one midshipman. The newly appointed French consul to Mogador is numbered among the victims. Exactly one half of those on board the unfortunate vessel were drowned, the other half were saved under circumstances which reflect the highest credit on the British and French consul at Mazagan. Mr. Redman, for it was to his prompt arrival at the spot, and his energetic persuasion of the Moors to assist him, that the survivors owe their lives' (Shipping Gazette). [Boeknr.: 33254 ]

John Newton (1725-1807) is probably the best known of the captains, not only because his published journals contain one of the most detailed descriptions of everyday life in the trade, but also because he later fought vigorously for abolition.
