Michael Rosenthal. 'Colonel Patersons Scrapbook'. Public Lecture Series: John Turner Memorial Lecture 2013. Newcastle City Hall (New South Wales, Australia).

When, in 1809, he knew he would be returning to Britain, colonial hand Colonel William Paterson took great care to commission watercolours from John Lewin and George Robert Evans, arguably the leading artists in the colony.

Rosie Dias. 'Memory and the aesthetics of military experience : viewing the landscape of the Anglo-Mysore Wars'. March 2013. Tate Papers (No.19). ISSN 1753-9854 Online
