"John Bunyan Reciting 'The Pilgrim's Progress' to his friends in Bedford Gaol", by G. F. Folingsby, of Munich, in the exhibition of Fine Arts at Melbourne, Australia, 1864. Engraving of a painting. 'Bunyan is reciting with characteristic fervour some scene of the "Progress" - let us suppose it to be the story of Christian and Eaithful imprisoned by the people of Vanity Fair - which scene he has just composed on the desk to his right, under which lies a huge book - either the Bible or the "Book of Martyrs," his constant companions. His listeners are two Bedford friends and the good gaoler, standing with his keys at his side; while, nestling under Bunyan's arm, is the poor little blind daughter who was long a daily companion of his captivity. The picture has great artistic merit, particularly as regards drawing and character, and is the work of a young artist studying at Munich. It has been purchased as one of the first pictures collected for the public gallery at Melbourne, Australia'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
