Show moreHenry Salt entered the employment of Viscount Valentia, embarking with him on an eastern tour in 1802. In 1805, Valentia sent him on a mission to improve relations with the rulers of Abyssinia. During the sailing, on October 13th 1809 he anchored in Mocha where he remained, housed at the British Factory, until December 14th. It is probably during this stay that he had the chance to take this view; before starting his career as officer of the British government, he was an antiquarian and wanted to become a painter.
