In A. C. Coxhead's illustrated monograph on Thomas Stothard, R.A (London, 1906) he describes the miniature publications produced by Pickering in the mid 1820's for which Thomas Stothard designed frontispieces: 'Catullus, Tibullus and Propertius has a group of nymphs and fauns; Horace has a picture of Venus stepping from a shell, attended by young sea-gods, cupids flutter in the air above her head.' (p. 214).
