Brockham, Dorking, 3 May 1842. John Frederick Tayler (1802-1889), artist, studied under Vernet, and for a time shared a studio with Bonington. It was as a painter of 'elegant' sporting and pastoral scenes in watercolour that he achieved the popularity which was maintained throughout his long career. His sporting subjects were of two classes, some dealing with the costumes and accessories of eighteenth-century stag-hunts, others with incidents of contemporary sport in the highlands of Scotland. Akin to these were his illustrative drawings of costume and scenery, many of them suggested by incidents in the 'Waverley Novels.' He became president of the Royal Watercolour Society.

2pp., 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Mourning border. The recipient's 'most entertaining note' finds Tayler 'just starting off to Highgate'. He only has time 'for a line in reply', and he ventures 'at the risk of being thought impertinent' to advise the recipient's mother not to 'put too Fanciful a price on the Sketches, but let them go to the advancement of the Charity with all their imperfections on their heads'. Tayler considers himself 'the obliged party', and ends with his best respects.

He begins the letter by explaining that he is 'dating from my little Cottage here', and that he has let his house in town, 'reducing my Rent to less than half and I can paint to more purpose and without interruption of idle Callers here'. The delay in replying has been occasioned by 'so much of bustle and packing'. He states that he is going to take Hills's advice 'and write immediately to Lord Uxbridge begging his Lordship to send a check either to me or to you if you will be so kind as to keep it for me'. He expresses sorry at 'poor old Worley's death', stating that he had 'quite a regard & no small share of respect for him which was increasing with every transaction in which we had any share'.

3pp., 12mo. Bifolium. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper, but with a corner of the first leaf torn away, resulting in some loss of text, including the year. The reverse of the second leaf laid down on a leaf removed from an album. The image of the 'design', 8 x 6.5 cm, is on the second leaf, which also carries Tayler's signature. It is a crude but pleasing sketch of an intended painting, done with the sureness of a watercolour artist. Tayler begins the letter by writing that he hopes that he is not trespassing far on your goodnature' by asking if Faed can 'help me to a Cottage Door. I am painting a Girl carrying a Basket of Puppies, the anxious Mother following, it is on a large scale for Water Colour, and I have nothing sufficiently real to work upon.' He adds: 'I dwell still th grateful recollection on ne or two Cottage Interiors you lent me many years ago'. He had wished that Faed had 'made some use of me in return in the Horse or Dog or Animal line'. Beneath the sketch Tayler writes: 'This is my design. If you should have anything of a Doorway you could lend me send me a line and I will send a messenger for it at your own time.' From an album of letters received by Thomas Faed.
