More Information
The Rescue Sketchbook p.37. Moore chose to enlarge the sketch lower left of the recto for the figures of Phemius and Telemachus, adding the background from the sketch upper left, see HMF 2300; the sketch upper right was enlarged as HMF 2294. On the verso, the sketch lower left was used almost unchanged for HMF 2302 and that on the right for HMF 2297.
