The Butcher, taken from ye sign of a butcher in ye Butcher Row.
[attributed to George Bickham the Younger]
Decem.r 19 1746.
Etching, 335 x 200mm (13¼ x 8"), with large margins. Old folds
Caricature depicting Prince William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland (1721-65) as a butcher, symbolised by an ox dressed in butcher’s garb with axe, cleaver, and meat-tray armour, his Garter Star partly visible. He stands before a block bearing a heart, while in the background a house burns, guarded by grenadiers, with bodies on the ground and others hanging from a gallows. The scene is framed with ornate imagery: satyr heads, flaming torches, an inverted thistle, and a snake encircling a cartouche inscribed with verses. Prince William Augustus was nicknamed, 'butcher Cumberland' for his harsh suppression of the Jacobite Rebellion in 1746.

London. Published by John Miller, Bridge Street & W. Blackwood, Edinburgh. [n.d. c.1824]
Fine hand-coloured etching, sheet 290 x 350mm (11½ x 13¾"). Trimmed within plate three sides except bottom. Creasing where previously folded. Small hole in fold. Transferance in publication area.
A scene by James Gillray satirising the coaching prints of Charles Loraine Smith (1751-1835). A dilapidated post-chaise with a thatched roof stands outside a ramshackle inn. The emaciated horses refuse to move despite being whipped. A boy raises a pitchfork to strike the beasts and a bare-footed woman approaches with a huge red-hot poker. After Gillray’s death, Miller and his Edinburgh partner William Blackwood issued a major nine-volume posthumous edition, 'The Caricatures of Gillray' (1824–27). Unusually, they created new engravings rather than reusing Gillray’s original copper plates. Buyers could also choose from several levels of hand-coloring, from simple washes to more elaborate work.

Publish.d Feb.ry 17.th 1800 by SW Fores Piccadilly.
Fine hand-coloured etching, SWF in ink, 265 x 400mm (10½ x 15¾"). Thread margins top and bottom. Laid on backing sheet. Very small tear top right border.
Satire on the return of Fox (1749-1806), to Parliament for the debate of 3rd February, but without application to the debate itself. A schoolroom stands in for the House of Commons. Dundas (1742-1811) sits on the left with a cane; on the right, Pitt (1759-1806) suavely receives a new scholar. In the centre, Fox in a fool’s cap marked ‘Truant’, stands on a heap of papers and weeps, a birch-rod in his left hand. The papers include ‘Lists of Traitors, Reports of the Secret Committee, Reports, Quigly’s Life, Ld E. Fitzgerald, O Conners Confession, and Death & Caract[er].’ Pitt tells the boy in Court dress: "You are a New Scholar. I Perceive, be a Good Boy & you shall be rewarded. Say after me, P-E-N-Pen SI-si-Pensi-ON-on - Pension - thats a Good Boy!!!" The reply is: "P-E-N-Pen . . . [&c.]". Pitt holds a paper, 'Aye No Place Pension', and another on his desk, 'Plan for an Union'; from his pocket protrudes 'A List of Secret Traitors.' Beneath his stool are two bags: 'Old Wigs for Bad Boys' and, spilling guineas, 'Candle Ends Cheese Pareings & Sugar Plumbs for Good Boys.' Dundas, in tartan, turns threateningly toward desks labelled 'Forms for Sulky Boys', where Sheridan (1751-1816) and Burdett (1770-1844) look uneasy. He warns them: "Haud yere Tongues, Young Gentlemen - or Ye'll never Thrive i the World, Good Boys Should never Say any thing but Aye, or NO!"

[John Lambton] A Row in the Play-Ground.
HB. [John Doyle.]
Published by T. Mc Lean 26 Haymarket 3rd Dec. 1838 A. Ducote's Lithog.y 70 St Martins.
Lithograph, printed area 270 x 350mm (10 x 13¾"). Trimmed close to printed border.
A satire on John Lambton, 1st Earl of Durham (1792 - 1840) and his brief spell as governor-in-chief of British North America. He stands against a tree, a handkerchief held to his eye, injured by three rocks at his feet inscribed 'Act / of / Indemnity', thrown by Brougham, who lurks behind a tree on the far right. Durham's allies, including Sir William Molesworth and Lord Howick, attempt to console him, but Durham is upset at their failure to prevent the assault. Behind stands the Duke of Wellington, holding a cricket bat, saying 'It was a very hard blow, but he brought it on himself'. Lambton was appointed governor in 1837 to tackle unrest in Quebec but soon ran into problems, overstepping his powers by deporting imprisoned rebel leaders to Bermuda. When the matter was brought before the House of Lords by Brougham, Lambton resigned from his position after barely five months.

Publish.d Nov.r 30 1799 by SW Fores Piccadilly where f[olios] of Caricatures may be had for the Evening
Hand-coloured etching, 355 x 270mm (14 x 10½"). On 18th century watermarked paper. Stamp of Samuel William Fores 'S.W.F' in brown ink in right corner. . Thread margin on left and trimmed to plate on right.
One phrase within the image, "Constitutions Ready for all Occasions", is in the typically neat hand of F. Sansom( fl. c.1797-1810); the remainder of the lettering is less carefully etched. Bonaparte (1769-1821) sits enthroned among clouds, brooding, his face in both hands. His right leg rests on a skull, his left trampling papers titled ‘Hymn Marselos’ and 'Council of Cinq Cents.’ Beneath the skull lie more papers: ‘Liste of the Judges’, ‘Myself in Egypt an Oratorio’, ‘Ca ira ira’. He wears uniform and a plumed cocked hat, framed by a radiant triangle of daggers inscribed ‘Seyes’, ‘Buonaparte’, ‘Ducos’; within it appears Abbaye. Behind him stand two attendant demons: Sieyès (1748-1836), wearing a bonnet-rouge, and Ducos (1747-1816), both emerging from clouds in long gowns, looking anxiously at their master; a label reads ‘Constitutions Ready for all Occasions’. In the air, four small, tailed demons with the heads of English Jacobins swarm around; Sheridan (1751-1816) spits fire at Bonaparte, while Fox (1749-1806) is at the right, the remaining figures likely M. A. Taylor (1757-1834) and Stanhope (1753-1816) .Along the lower edge appear rough Frenchmen cheering their new ruler, waving bonnets-rouges or daggers. One shouts "Down with the Councils up wth the Committees", another "Vive La Babouf Ca ira".

[n.d. c.1814]
Scarce etching, 270 x 320mm (10¾ x 12¾"), with large margins
Satire on the final campaign against Napoleon had been characterized by Schwarzenberg's caution and diplomatic hesitation. Blücher (1742-1819) and Schwarzenberg (1771-1820), play badminton, batting a puppet-like Napoleon (1769-1821) back and forth as if he were a shuttlecock. Blücher calls out: “Bravo, Schwartzenberg! Keep the game going! Send him back this way, and—damn him—I’ll drive him off again.” Schwarzenberg replies: “There he goes! Why, Blücher, he used to be quite a heavy plaything—but damn me if he isn’t light as a feather now!” Both wear military uniforms, though Blücher is bareheaded. In the distance lies Paris, shown as a grand city of palaces and spires; three buildings display the double-headed-eagle flag, and one dome flies that flag above the tricolour.

Satire on Napoleon's (1769-1821) defeat by the Allies at the Battle of Leipzig, 1813. A spinning top with Napoleon’s head whirls above the ground while representatives of the Allied powers, Wellington (1769-1852), Schwarzenberg (1771-1820) (or Francis I (1768-1835)), the Tsar (1777-1825), Bernadotte (1763-1844), and Blücher (1742-1819), stand in a circle striking it. Napoleon’s severed limbs lie scattered around, each labeled with the name of a territory from his former empire. To the left, the future King of Holland (1772-1843) raises one of the legs, while in the distance to the right, Napoleon’s (1791-1847) wife and son (1811-32) flee in a carriage. Overhead, a demon carries off a despairing Joseph Bonaparte (1768-1844).

Etching, 18th century watermark; platemark 235 x 300mm (9¼ x 11¾"). Thread margin on bottom and small margin at top.
Two rival quack doctors (whose premises, both advertising Antiscorbutic Pills to prevent scurvy, face each other) argue while their wives fight each other. Even their cats and dogs are involved in the rivalry! Etched after Henry Bunbury, an amateur printmaker who subsequently enjoyed a successful career as a designer for printsellers. 'Prints by Bunbury an his imitators were conspicuously 'polite' and appealed, like novels, 'To the Fashionable World and Polite circles'. Of good family, amply endowed with social skills, a beautiful wife and connections in high society, Bunbury's appeal was not solely aesthetic' and his admirers 'recognized his comic talent, his informed enthusiasm for literature, and his ability to draw a momentary pang with something of the sensitivity with which Sterne could write it' (Clayton). The dubious claims of both are emphasised by the crest top centre, featuring two ducks and the motto 'quack quack quack'.

J. Fairburn Broadway Ludgate Hill London. [n.d. 1831]
Hand-coloured etching, fine colour, 250 x 360mm (10 x 14¼"). Trimmed within plate and laid on backing sheet.
Satire on the 1831 dissolution of parliament to call a general election for the purpose of passing its Reform Bill. John Bull uses a pitchfork marked “Reform” to drive human-faced rats out of his barn. His dog, bearing Brougham’s (1778-1868) bewigged head, lunges at them, encouraged by William IV (1765-1837), who leans forward and commands, “Get out, you vermin.” The rats have been gnawing malt sacks; one reads “This is the Malt that lay in the house that Jack built.” Newcastle (1785-1851) still chews at it, with (London) Derry (1778- 1854) just below. Brougham moves toward a mitred rat-bishop (Robert Gray, Bishop of Bristol (1762-1834)) and Eldon (1751-1838) (“Old Bags”). John Bull’s fork has just knocked Wellington (1769-1852) and Peel (1788-1850), tagged “Water Rat” and “Orange Peel”, from the top of a sack. Other rats scatter toward their holes.

Satire on the Duke of Clarence's unwarranted expenditure as Lord High Admiral, which led to a dispute between he and Wellington which was laid before George IV (who found Clarence 'in error from the beginning to the end'). Further defiance by Clarence led to his forced resignation in the same month this print was published. George IV listens to the dispute between Wellington (brandishing a long scroll of Clarence's expenditures) and the Duke of Clarence, whose waterman's outfit and silver oar refer to his position. He wears a cap-like ducal coronet, a star, on his sleeve: Clarence Yacht Club.
