La Fiancée d'Abydos (Ch. X) Je t'ai dit que je n'étias pas ceque tu avais cru jusque'ici; tu vois maintenant la vérité de mes paroles. (Lord Byron)
Géricault et Eug. Lami 1823. Lith. de Villain
chez Gihaut b.ard des Italiens N.5
Lithograph, printed area 180 x 180mm (7 x 7"). Collector's stamp of [?]Paul and Véronique Sanchez verso (probably variant of L.3289).
Illustration of Lord Byron's poem 'The Bride of Abydos'. Specifically, the scene corresponds with Canto 2, verse X and the lines 'I said I was not what I seem'd;/ And now thou see'st my words were true'. Salim throws his cloak aside, revealing himself as a dashing pirate, and reveals to Zuleika that she is not his sister. From a set of six lithographs illustrating Byron, by Théodore Géricault (1791-1824) and Eugène Lami (1800-90), of which two were by Lami alone. Prior to 1822, Géricault had been able to live without much thought to the saleability of his works owing to a comfortable annuity he received following the death of his mother. However, the loss of part of his fortune in 1822 required him to produce work designed to appeal to dealers and collectors, with illustrations of exotic literature such as Byron falling into this category.

A French Farrier.
J Gericault inv.t. C. Hullmandel's Lithography.
[London. Published by Rodwell & Martin New Bond St. Feb. 1. 1821]
Scarce lithograph. watermark 1820. Printed area 260 x 360mm (10¼ x 14¼"). Repaired tear touching image on left.
Two farriers and horses, by Jean Louis André Théodore Géricault (1791-1824). From the only edition of Rodwell and Martin's 'Various Subjects drawn from life on Stone', known as the 'English Series'. Despite its commercial failure at the time, Gericault's 'English Series' is now considered to have been of the greatest importance in the development of lithography as an art form during the first half of the nineteenth century. Due to the comparitively small number of impressions printed before the stones were effaced, exampes of Gericault's lithographs from this series are now exteremelty rare and have always been amongst the most sought after of his original printed works.
