In the photo of the back, I think I see (on the right 'steps') a touch of verdigris, the blue-green product of copper oxidation that can develop...
I've spent a lot of time this past year getting my eyes improved. Isn't it fortunate you can listen to info on this painting. Did you give it a try?

Because of the little dish, I was going to say it looks like a kit for making Chinese ink, but AJ, as usual, has a better understanding.
Continuing that train of thought, John Wiseheart was born in 1802. His dad was not in the business. Could he have had his own establishment when...
Guess they've learned that people look at pictures more than they read, so, to learn some things, you have to expand sections to find the text....
