Notes (Hamnet):
History: The only item pertaining to Midsummer Night's Dream listed in the Reid Catalogue of Cruikshank's Work is a woodcut, no.3564, which was designed by Cruikshank and engraved by T. Wright. The woodcut is a vignette and Reid notes that it was executed by Wright as a specimen of his craft, but never published. FSL has a copy of the woodcut (ART Vol. c87, no.15a) and this sketch may have been a preliminary design for the vignette. It is also possible that this was a preliminary sketch for a picture from MSND which Cruikshank exhibited at RA in 1853.
