Geir Zoega and Brusa - Public domain portrait drawing

Humorous drawing shows Geir Z"ega, an Icelandic travel guide, holding a dog in one hand and a switch in the other. Brusa is a Scandanavian word for horsefly, but also any animal that disturbs livestock. Taylor visited Iceland in 1862, perhaps en route to Russia.
Original title: The consequences.
Inscribed above image: H.B. the animal is a dog.
Inscribe in a hand other than Taylor's, lower left: (see page - Brusa of the sheep).
Gift; Charles F. Heartman; 1922; (DLC/PP-46411a).
