[Ten plates from Charles Dickens's Bleak House.]
[H.K. Browne ('Phiz').]
[London, 1853.]
Set of ten loose wood-engravings, including frontispiece, after H.K. Brown. Proofs on india paper, with captions. Each c. 225 x 140mm. 9 x 5½". Fine impressions, with occasional marginal foxing.
Bleak House was published in 20 monthly parts between March 1852 and September 1853. It is held to be one of Charles Dickens' (1812-1870) finest novels, containing one of the most vast, complex and engaging arrays of minor characters and sub-plots in his entire canon. At the novel's core is a long-running litigation in the Court of Chancery, Jarndyce v Jarndyce, which has far-reaching consequences for all involved. Hablot Knight Browne (1815-1882), painter and illustrator; known as 'Phiz'.

J: B. Rush [facsimile signature]
Browne [written inside the image.]
[n.d. c.1840.]
Soft-ground etching. 243 x 186mm. Trimmed.
James Bloomfield Rush (1800-1849) murdered Isaac Jermy (his landlord), Mrs Jermy and the maid at Stanfield Hall, Norfolk, England, on 28 November 1848. Rush became known as the ‘Killer in the Fog’ and was hanged for his crime on 21 April 1849. Following the mysterious deaths of his father and mother, he soon discovered that he was not left any inheritance, and thus supposedly forged a codicil to state that the youngest child would have to turn 18 before any of them could inherit. It is clear that Rush essentially stole the inheritence of his step-father, and his wife, in order to help bail himself out from imminent bankruptcy. All the loans owed to Isaac Jermy fell due on 30 November 1848, two days after the murders took place.
