An artist signing as "A. Storer" executed two watercolours formerly in the topographical collection of Frederick Crace and subsequently in the British Museum: one dated 1841 is of the Sluice House at Highbury (London), and the other (dated 1845 by Crace) shows the Rosemary Branch Tavern in Islington (London). It is possible that the same A. Storer was also the creator of the present drawing
A drawing of the same composition by Dr Leonard George Boor (1825-1917), dated 1865, exists in a private collection (2022). Dr Boor practised as a doctor/surgeon in London before leaving in 1859 to settle in New Zealand. He settled in Wellington, building a historic house at 22 The Terrace in 1866, before moving to Nelson where he was a doctor in the hospital and asylum. One explanation for the existence of the two drawings would be that both drawings were copied from a plate in a drawing manual or from a print
