David Carnegie Andrew Agnew

“ As an engraver, he has worthily represented his father and uncle. His style is less minute but more spirited. His plates occur in Ruskin’s Modern Painters and Stones of Venice, and in various modern architectural works, annuals, and costly serial publications. ”

“ For these facts concerning him I am indebted to The Register for 1869 (vol. i., p. 132) ; and on the same authority, I note that “more than thirty years ago he gave up engraving, and retired to Bocking, in Essex, being engaged by the firm of Samuel Courtauld & Co., crape manufacturers, for the chemical and scientific department, and he continued in that employment until the age of eighty-one, his health failing a short time before his death.” He died 3d October 1868, and was buried at Halstead, in Essex. ”
