Mezzotint, platemark 410 x 290mm (16 x 11½"). Staining below image. Small margins.
Edward Bright, a grocer from Maldon, Essex, famed for his corpulence. Amongst other men of the 18th century also famous for their weight, Bright, at 42 stone, far exceeded John Love of Weymouth (d.1793, 26 stone) but was still far from the weight of the most famous, Daniel Lambert of Leicester (1770-1809, 52¾ stone). An American contemporary, Miles Darden, outweighed even Lambert at 71 stone. Mezzotint published by the Haid family of Nuremberg, Germany, copied from a mezzotint by James McArdell, the well-known Irish engraver. McArdell's print was itself based on a portrait by David Ogborne (d.1800/1801), a painter based in Chelmsford, Essex who gained a certain reputation by painting local provincial monsters such as a calf with six legs and a winged fish.

1779.
Mezzotint, very scarce. Sheet size: 215 x 135mm (8½ x 5½"). Trimmed to image. Slight repaired hole on top left.
Justus Claproth (1728 - 1805) was a German jurist, or teacher of law, and inventor of the deinking process of recycled paper. Before the invention of the paper machine in 1799 the most common fibre source was recycled fibres from used textiles. The rags were from hemp, linen and cotton. It was not until the introduction of wood pulp in 1843 that paper production were independent of recycled materials. The process for removing printing inks from recycled paper was invented by Justus Claproth in 1774. He practiced together with German paper producer Johann Engelhard Schmid. Today this method is called deinking.
