Garden Island.
Woodthorpe sc.
Published March 5 1803 by M. Jones Paternoster Row.
Hand-coloured stipple, sheet 125 x 210mm (4¾ x 8¼"). Cut to plate at bottom.
Garden Island, an inner-city locality of Sydney since joined to the mainland, and used for government and naval purposes since the first days of British settlement. From 'The History of New South Wales [...]' supposedly by the famous pickpocket George Barrington (first published 1802), although there is no evidence of his involvement with the book, and London publishers used his name without scruples. As Tim McCormick shows, the views and text in the book were plagiarised from various sources. This engraving does not relate to any other known views but uit and the other views of the book 'are of interest because they illustrate how the already complex process of converting an original field drawing to a published book illustration can be still further extended by an illicit traffic in images'.

Published Dec. 24. 1803, by M.Jones Paternoster Row.
Hand-coloured stipple, sheet 125 x 210mm (4¾ x 8¼"). Cut to platemark.
Early view of Sydney, from 'The History of New South Wales [...]' supposedly by the famous pickpocket George Barrington (first published 1802), although there is no evidence of his involvement with the book, and London publishers used his name without scruples. This view, as McCormick notes, is a mirror-image of an engraving published in David Collins' 'An Account of the English Colony' (London, 1798), itself after a watercolour by Edward Dayes. The source has been augmented with the addition of an Aboriginal Australian aiming a spear at a British settler, drawing parallels with violence against settlers often depicted in prints such as those documenting Cook's voyages.

Lithograph on india with back-sheet printed with title; extremely rare. Sheet 470 x 350mm (18½ x 13¾"). Some spotting, corner creased.
Half-length portrait of William Henry Phillips, whose 'Patent portable fire annihilator, for extinguishing fire by gases and vapour, affording a means of saving life and property when water may be unavailing' was exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1851, winning a prize. This was a device that used a chemical reaction to produce a cloud of carbon dioxide to smother a fire. A motion was presented to Parliament that every government vessel should have an Annihilator. However the Fire Annihilator Works, at Battersea Fields, burned to the ground in 1852, and the business failed. P.T. Barnum invested in the company that bought the American patent, but after some unsatisfactory trials, that company also closed, although the Great American Showman still believed the invention was a valuable one, writing about it in his autobiography.
