War on the continent, by stopping the supply of madder from Holland , threatened to impede his progress. This obstacle, however, led him to consider the nature of its cultivation, and with a well-devised project he waited on Sir Joseph Banks for his advice, and, as he hoped, his co-operation. Sir Joseph, after unsuccessfully attempting to cultivate madder in Essex , had made up his mind that it could not be done in England.

Field then commenced the cultivation in his own garden, and from roots of his own growth produced beautiful specimens of colouring matter. A contrivance, both mechanical and chemical, was still wanted to reduce the liquor to its finest consistence. Oddly enough the percolator was patented by others several years after, and applied to the clearing of sugar.

Field continued his application of science to the purposes of the artist with good effect; his dexterity and care in the preparation of delicate colours set all competition at defiance. Anyway, I digress. This speculation comes from his contempory, T. However it does occur to me that Church may well have experimented with it, to see how it painted up.
