Summary

[edit]

This image is a hand-coloured aquatint portrait of Yagan by George Cruikshank. A black and white print of this image appeared in the frontispiece of Robert Dale's 1834 booklet A descriptive account of the panoramic view &c. of King George's Sound and the adjacent country.

A digital image of the portrait is available from the National Library of Australia (NLA) website. The NLA image contains spurious indexing information along the bottom; this digital image is a cropped version that eliminates this.

A de-yellowed version of this image is available as Image:Yagan.jpg, and a closely cropped de-yellowed version is available at Image:Yagan cropped.jpg.
