(Engraved by Simon François Ravenet. This illustration was first made for the series ‘English History Delineated’, 1750–2, and was afterwards reworked for inclusion in the second edition of Tobias Smollett’s Complete History of England (London, 1758), where it appears, folded up, between pp. 124 and 125 of the first volume. The present example resembles the version included in Smollett’s History but shows no signs of having been folded. See Simon Keynes, ‘The Cult of King Alfred the Great’, in Anglo-Saxon England, vol. xxviii (1999), pp. 294¬–5.)
