Notes

Conrad Wise Chapman (sketcher); John Gadsby Chapman (painter).

"This was an important battery. Men are at work on the fortifications. The rocks shown in the picture have (sic) brought out remarkably well; in fact the artist himself has stated that he has used these rocks in a great number of his pictures, having never had a better combination of such." – Conrad Wise Chapman, 1898
