Credits:Attributed to Angelo Maria Bigari (fl. 1772-1779) and this is confirmed by the letterpress on p. 76 of Vol. II of Francis Grose's "Antiquities of Ireland" (1796), which describes the engraving of this drawing (Pl. 99) as "taken from an original drawing by Bigari, in the collection of the Right Hon. William Conyngham."
