Friendship was often symbolically portrayed, sometimes as putti or cherubs, but more commonly as two boys. As is the case on this particularly finely decorated glass, the majority of boys depicted on Dutch stipple-engraved 'Friendship' glasses are shown with a wine glass, sometimes also shaking hands.Opaque twist glasses with Dutch stipple engraving are rare and this is a particularly unusual choice of glass for Wolff. Only six such glasses engraved by him are recorded by Smit (1993), four of which are of comparable size and form to the present lot with straight double-series stems. They include no.Cb.2, similarly decorated with two boys shaking hands, and no.Ac.19 which is illustrated by Pieter C Ritsema van Eck, Glass in the Rijksmuseum, Vol.2 (1995), p.455, no.574.

During the winter of 1783-4 the prison suffered a severe outbreak of gaol fever. The cause of the fever was generally attributed to 'foul air', the nature of which was not understood at the time. Among Day's suggestions was the use of a lime-water shower of his devising which would carry down the impurities in the air. He drew on the maritime experiences of James Lind, and the writings of the prison reformer Sir G.O. Paul and Joseph Priestley.
