The Irish Schoolmaster. Tableau
J.D. Scott 17/77.
[c.1876].
Pen & ink drawing on two sheets, 275 x 220mm (10¾ x 8¾") Trimmed and glued to card.
7 out of 10 verses of the song/poem by James A. Sidney illustrated/engraved by J.D Scott plate 17 out of 77. The original verses 3 regarding Old Marmion, 5 regarding Bonaparte and 9 regarding London being in Spain are missing suggesting a local bias. The text and Music is transcribed in School of Scottish Studies (in its entirety) and published in Robert Ford's 'Vagabond Songs and Ballads' Volume 1 1899. The style of the "Tableau" is similar to J.D Scott's 'Combination Atlas Map of Bucks County, Pennsylvania' 1876 indicating that this might also be his work. This would have been a popular item at the time when Irish schoolmasters were "in vogue" particularily in the USA.

Welsh Moutain Ponies.
J. Trasott, Nelson Sq.e
A very rare etching. 260 x 382mm. 10¼ x 15".
Welsh mountain ponies are known for their good nature; their movement is bold and free, and often characteristically fast, especially at the trot. The Welsh Pony is reputed to be trustworthy and to have a good disposition, but is also spirited and enduring. They are known for their stamina and soundness; they generally have even temperaments and friendly personalities. They are usually easily trained, in part due to their high level of intelligence.
