It is possible that the artist's brother Alfred William Reeve (1807-1854) with whom he lived in Fleet Street in the 1830s, collaborated with him. The present composition, and treatment of the subject, are strongly reminiscent of the watercolours of their contemporary, William Henry Hunt (1790-1864).
