The present drawing depicts studies for one of the illustrations to Edward Gray in the Moxon Tennyson, 1857, p. 340, which was engraved by J. Thompson. Emma Moreland is the village girl who meets the eponymous protagonist walking on the road, and whose questions elicit an outpouring of grief about his ill-fated love for Ellen Adair.
