Editor: So, this is "[inscriptions not by Turner]" by Philip James De Loutherbourg. It looks like just a small piece of paper with some writing on it, sort of mysterious. What's your take on this? Curator: It's funny, isn't it? Like finding a note in a bottle. Perhaps this was a quick sketch, an aide-memoire, not meant for our eyes. I wonder what "benglog" was like? I bet De Loutherbourg saw something magical there. Editor: I hadn't thought of it as a personal note before. It's cool to think about what it meant to him. Curator: Exactly! Sometimes the most seemingly insignificant things hold the greatest stories, don't you think?
