Farm Yard and Printing House at Strawberry Hill. the Seat of the Hon. H. Walpole.
Drawn and Etch'd by E. Edwards.A. Engrav'd in Aquatinta by F. Jukes.
London Published as the Act directs [n.d., c.1790.]
Etching and aquatint with original hand colour, image 180 x 232mm. Trimmed to image top and sides.
View in the grounds of the fancifully 'Gothic' villa of Horace Walpole, a folly which he purchased in 1748 and rebuilt in stages to his own specifications, expanding the little property from five acres to forty-six over the years. Walpole built the Printing House in 1757. In September 1759 he wrote to the Earl of Strafford “…I have begun to build a new printing-house, that the old one may make room for the Gallery and Round Tower.” It was finished at the end of October when he wrote again to Strafford “My new printing-house is finished, in order to pull down the old one, and lay the foundations next summer of my round tower.” It was in use by the end of the following May. Although it possessed no Gothic features, it was probably the most important building as it was the headquarters of Walpole’s private press, “the Offinia Arbuteana or the Strawberry Hill Press.” The first book issued from the press was an edition of the Odes of Thomas Gray (1757), Walpole’s old schoolfriend. Amongst Walpole’s own works printed here were the Mysterious Mother (1768), a blank-verse drama, and the Essay on Modern Gardening (1785). A work particularly important for its documentary value was issued from the press in 1774. This was Walpole’s 'Description of the Villa of Mr Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill near Twickenham, with an inventory of the furniture, pictures, curiosities etc'. The 'Description' was subsequently revised and reprinted in 1784, accompanied by engravings.

Welbore Ellis's country cottage in Twickenham, Middlesex, depicting the house surrounded by trees, on the riverbank, with boats in the foreground and a group of figures with cattle to the left. Welbore Ellis, 1st Baron Mendip (1713 - 1802) was a British statesman. He held a number of political offices, including briefly serving as Secretary for the Colonies in 1782 during the American War of Independence. A proof impression from 'Des Jardins Anglais', a set of twelve plates representing lodges around London, first advertised in the Journal de Paris, 13th November 1788. Only five plates, etched by Guyot, are known, and it is quite possible that the rest of the set has actually never been engraved.

L. Altbalin Del.t [Louis Marie Baptiste Atthalin]. [J.C. Stadler Sculp.]
Published Aug.t 1st 1816, at R. Ackermann's Repository of Arts, No 101, Strand, London.
Very rare aquatint, Sheet 425 x 690mm (16¾ x 27¼"), watermarked 'J Whatman 1813' (partial). Trimmed into image on three sides (c.3cm on right, losing engraver's inscription), into plate at bottom, vertical crease, bottom corners snipped.
A view of Orleans House, a Palladian villa on the Thames in St Margaret's, Twickenham, home to Louis Philippe, Duke of Orleans, between 1813 and 1815. A very large image with coaches and riders. The artist, Louis Marie Baptiste Atthalin (1784-1856), had been an aide-de-camp of Napoleon before taking the same role for Louis Philippe in 1814, after the first exile of Napoleon, at which time he painted this view. Despite rejoining Napoleon for the Hundred Days, Atthalin remained a favourite of the Duke: after becoming king in 1830 Louis Philippe made Atthalin Maréchal de Camp. When Louis Philippe abdicated after the February 1848 Revolution, Atthalin also lost his position, after which he retired from public life.

South Front of Heath Lane Lodge, at Twickenham, the Residence of Isaac Swainson Esqr. [French translation below.]
Robt. Mitchell Archt.
[London] Publish'd March 25, 1801.
Etching and aquatint in sepia, watermarked wove paper, 235 x 310mm. 9¼ x 12¼". A fine impression, with full margins. Faint trace of offsetting from another plate.
View of a house in the Palladian style, the central building flanked by two wings with large doorways surmounted by rose windows. In 1788 Isaac Swainson took a lease of the Heath Lane Lodge estate. Most of the earlier mansion had been demolished by its owner the Hon. George Shirley in 1783. A new house was then built, to the design of the Scottish architect Robert Mitchell, or conceivably, by Swainson himself. The extensive land at Heath Lane Lodge enabled Swainson to realise the ambition to create a botanical garden, which was first laid out under the direction of Daniel Grimwood, nurseyman, of Kensington and later managed by Arthur Biggs. Numbered 'Plate 6' upper left. From architect Robert Mitchell's (1782 - 1809; fl.) folio 'Plans, and views in perspective, with descriptions of buildings erected in England and Scotland; and ... an essay to elucidate the Grecian, Roman and Gothic Architecture.' Mitchell designed Heath Lane Lodge, Twickenham, Middlesex.
