Museum). Because of his independent income he was able to turn his travels into a living. He had earlier published "Travels through Spain, 1775 and 1776" (1779).(DNB)**Engraver PETER MAZELL (active 1761-1797) was the child of Irish Huguenots who came to work in London by 176, and made many of the copper plate engravings from the Author Swinburne's original watercolors. He was a notable artist himself, and a Fellow of the Society of Artists from 1772, but made his career on interpreting landscapes, travel and natural history subjects for others. He provided engravings for, among others, Capt. James Cooks "Voyages" in the 1780's (see prints in British Museum) **PROVENANCE: GRANVILLE HASTINGS WHELER, (1701-1770) is perhaps best remembered as a clergyman and amateur scientist who, with his friend Stephen Gray, conducted experiments with electricity, in imitation of the work of Benjamin Franklin, at his house, Otterden Place, near Charing, Kent. He was later elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1728, and published his findings on the repulsive power of electricity in "The Philosophical Transactions" of 1729. (DNB). He took after his father, Sir George Wheler (1650-1723) who became canon of Durham Cathedral, in joining the church and writing about his travels. Wheler's father published "A Journey into Greece" in 1682 (ESTC R9388), highlighting relatively yet-unexplored destinations, and the work was translated into French. (DNB) **REF: ESTC T127398.
