Other Notes: Peter La Cave travelled to England and lived here from 1789 until his death. In 1801 he showed two works at the Royal Academy. He painted views in Worcestershire, Berkshire and Devon. La Cave was a friend of Julius Caesar Ibbetson and quite possibly an assistant to George Morland. He painted in oils and watercolours and was also a draughtsman. La Cave had a number of pupils including J R Morris and John Thomas Gower.
Drover - a little browning around the edges.
