介绍（中）	雅培是德文郡埃克塞特人，是一位多产且成就卓著的绘图员，以药剂师和外科医生为生。他的作品源于与水彩画家弗朗西斯·汤恩（1739-1816）的友谊，他的热情学生、追随者和赞助人雅培成为了他。他的大部分设计都基于附近的网站，采用了Towne特有的钢笔轮廓，充满了单色或彩色水洗。在这里，他加入了九张小纸，根据德文郡Ugbrooke公园的草图创建了一个设计。艺术家选择了一个未开垦的角落，专注于被溪流侵蚀的摇摇欲坠的河岸。他用灰色、黄色、蓝色和棕色墨水的精细水洗来描述树叶、土壤、光线和阴影的变化，并展示了博物学家对主题的敏感性。在山的背面，塞内卡的铭文证明了雅培对溪流纯净的喜悦，他在素描时一定是从溪流中寻求茶点。
介绍（英）	A native of Exeter in Devon, Abbott was a prolific and accomplished draftsman who earned his living as an apothecary and surgeon. His work developed out of a friendship with the watercolorist Francis Towne (1739-1816), whose enthusiastic student, follower, and patron Abbott became. Basing most of his designs on sites near at hand, he adopted Towne's characteristic pen outlines, filled with monochrome or colored washes. Here, he joined nine small sheets of paper to create a design based on sketches made at Ugbrooke Park in Devon. The artist chose an uncultivated corner and focused on a crumbling bank undercut by a stream. He used delicate washes of gray, yellow, blue, and brown ink to describe variations in the foliage, soil, light, and shade, and demonstrated a naturalist's sensitivity to his subject. On the back of the mount, inscribed lines from Seneca attest to Abbott's delight in the purity of the stream, from which he must have sought refreshment while sketching.
