Little Wenlock Rectory, Wellington, Shropshire - CHH sends WW a picture he has done of Caernarvon Castle. He has 'just made sufficient advancement in art to see clearly my defects'. He gives his opinion on the effect of colours in painting, followed by a description of his own work. When is a painting too grey or green?: 'Is it possible to be too natural, for things to be too like nature in painting? I think not in Landscape - But I think it is in Historical Subjects'. Could WW give him some information concerning microscopes.
