GEORGE PIKE NICHOLLS. British Institution Exhibition - "The Covenant of Judas" - painted by J. Franklin, 1850. Creator: George Pike Nicholls.

GEORGE PIKE NICHOLLS. British Institution Exhibition - "The Covenant of Judas" - painted by J. Franklin, 1850. Engraving of a painting in a London exhibition: 'The event is told in these words: 14. Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests. 15. And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him imto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. 16. And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him. St. Matthew, chap. xxvi. The subject, we need scarcely observe, is of the highest class that has ever exercised the art of painting, in which the old masters maintain unapproachable excellence. Mr. Franklin's picture does not lack vigorous composition; His figures remind one of those in Haydon's large performances. "The Covenant of Judas" hangs in the North Room of the Institution: its dimensions are 5 feet 2 inches in height, and 6 feet 0 inches in width'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
