Luigi Kasimir [pencil signature.]
[n.d., c.1920.]
Large coloured etching from a limited edition, numbered 177/250 in pencil. 530 x 395mm, 21 x 15½". Paper age toned. Extremities tatty, with tears and chips.
Impressive and vibrant view looking up Fleet Street and Ludgate Hill towards St Paul's Cathedral. The street id thronged with people and vehicles of all kinds. By Luigi Kasimir (1881 - 1962), world renowned Austrian-born etcher and painter, born in 1881 in Pettau, a part of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Kasimir attended the Vienna Academy of Art where he studied under William Unger, who introduced him to the technique of the coloured etching. Kasimir was among the first to develop the technique of the coloured etching. Prior to this, prints were usually hand coloured with the colour being applied in a casual, haphazard manner. Kasimir first did a sketch- usually in pastel. He then transferred the design on as many as four to six plates, printing one after the other and applying the colour on the plate, all done by hand. The finished etching is a true original.

Watercolour with attached woodcut from 'Punch, or the London Charivari', sheet 600 x 470mm (23½ x 18½"). On paper with Whatman 1820 watermark.
In around 1784 an equestian statue of George I, previously at Canons in Middlesex, was moved to Leicester Square. As the condition of the square deteriorated so did that of the statue. In 1866 practical jokers painted the horse with spots, placed a dunce's hat (from the nearby Alhambra Theatre) on the monarch's head, and lodged a broomstick in the crook of his arm. The statue was sold for £16 in 1872 and removed from the square.

Lith. de Becquet frères Maçons Sorbonne 5
Paris, Tharin, édit. rue du Temple, 63
Coloured lithograph with fine colour, printed area 200 x 480mm (8 x 19"), large margins.
Unusual long view emphasising the tremendous length of the Crystal Palace, erected in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. Designed by the landscape gardener and architect Joseph Paxton (1803-65) and contractor Sir Charles Fox (1810-74) who both received knighthoods for their efforts. At the close of the exhibition Paxton campaigned for keeping the building in Hyde Park as a winter garden. The public were generally in favour of its retention in Hyde Park but Prince Albert wished the building moved, and the directors of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway floated a company to buy the materials and re-erect the building at Penge Park, near Sydenham, Kent. The project was an investor's nightmare but proved a great popular success.

![Transverse Secitonal Perspective of the Lobby to the New House of Commons as proposed by Francis Goodwin Architect [...]](jpegs/39756.jpg)
Transverse Secitonal Perspective of the Lobby to the New House of Commons as proposed by Francis Goodwin Architect [...]
Drawn on Stone by T. Allom Printed by C. Hullmandel
Arnold's Magazine of the Fine Arts [c.1833]
Rare lithograph, sheet 275 x 220mm (10¾ x 8½").
Francis Goodwin (1784-1835) was one of seventeen architects invited to submit designs for a new House of Commons in 1833. Goodwin's Perpendicular scheme, seen here, was much admired when he published it. They influenced entries for the new Houses of Parliament which were solicited after the disastrous fire of 1834 made a whole new Houses of Parliament building necessary. That competition, of course, was won by Charles Barry, whose designs resulted in one of London's most iconic buildings.

[Site of the Hunterian Establishment, Leicester Square?] Dr Hunters, Leicester Sq [ms below image]
B W Hanhart[?]
[c.1850]
Watercolour, sheet 135 x 70mm (5¼ x 2¾").
In 1783 the surgeon and anatomist John Hunter (1728-93) acquired a large house at 28 Leicester Square (on the east side of the sqaure), London. That is seemingly the address portrayed in this watercolour (the original site is much changed). Since there the site depicted is a bathhouse and the watercolour was certainly made after Hunter's death, however, it presumably shows the appearance of the building after Hunter's death.
