Dr. Martin Luther "Hier siehe ich, ich kann nicht anders, Gott helfe mir! Amen" [...]
Lucas Cranach Pinxt Fr. Muller Sculp.t
Inst. Bibl. Excud.t
Line engraving, platemark approx. 520 x 400mm (20½ x 15¾"), with very large margins. Uncut.
Martin Luther (1483-1546), theologian whose writings inspired the Protestant Reformation. In 1517 he famously published his '95 theses' attacking papal abuses and the sale of indulgences. Excommunicated by the Catholic church and declared a heretic, Luther's ideas were the foundation of a new conception of Christianity. He also translated the Bible into German to make it accessible to a larger number of people, contributing to the growth of the German language in the process. Engraving supposedly after Cranach, although far more in the idiom of the nineteenth century than Cranach's portraits of Luther.

A rare engraving. 500 x 620mm (19¾ x 24½"). Trimmed close to plate, a few nicks in edges.
King John confronted by his barons in 1215. Despite the title it was only after the death of John in 1216 that either Crown or nobility attempted to abide by the terms of the document. Despite Ryland's name as engraver this plate is not all his work, the result of him being executed for forging bills of exchange in 1783. His widow continued his business, and had Bartolozzi finish this plate.

Samuel Plimsoll.
Lock and Whitfield [...] Woodbury Process [c.1875].
Photograph mounted on printed sheet, sheet 270 x 205mm (10½ x 8").
Samuel Plimsoll (1824-98), politician and shipping reformer. An M.P. for Derby, Plimsoll's six-year campaign against overloaded 'coffin-ships' (over-insured and then deliberately overloaded in the hope of collecting insurance money) resulted in the 1876 Merchant Shipping Act. This introduced the 'Plimsoll Line', a load line reflecting a vessel's buoyancy. Plimsoll's name was also bestowed on the rubber-soled canvas shoes manufactured by the Liverpool Rubber Company in 1876: the company's salesman, Philip Lace, said that the shoes were water-tight as long as they were not immersed above the level of the band, and that this reminded him of the Plimsoll line.
