[Girl in Greek dress with peacock]
Painted by J. Northcote R.A. Engraved by H. Dawe
[n.d., c.1810]
Mezzotint with very large margins, rare; platemark 505 x 315mm (19¾ x 12½").
Girl in Greek dress, with a peacock to her right and a plant to her left. After James Northcote (1746-1831), painter and author. The engraver Henry Dawe (1790-1848) was part of a family of engravers, who like his brother George spent many years working in St Petersburg. Unfortunately during his career the technique of mezzotint, demonstrated so well here, went into decline as it was supplanted by lithography and engraving onto steel plates, both of which enabled publishers to make many good impressions whereas mezzotints yielded very few.

Published Oct.r 1784 by T. Gaugain, No. 4 Little Compton Street, St. Ann's, London
Rare stipple engraving. Sheet 525 x 650mm (20¾ x 25½"). Trimmed within plate and laid on archival paper; top right corner reinstated to image, with small tear repaired; small area of loss in English title.
A dramatic naval scene showing the twelve members of the crew of HMS Centaur taking to one of the ship's pinnaces and attempting to push away from their ship as it founders. HMS Centaur, a French frigate captured during the Battle of Lagos in 1759, was one of a fleet escorting prizes from the Battle of the Saintes back to Britain from Jamaica when the 1782 Central Atlantic hurricane hit off Newfoundland. Captain J.N. Inglefield and eleven crewmen reached the island of Faial in the Azores after more than sixteen days in an open boat. It is believed that 3,500 lives were lost from the various ships of the fleet. The painting, now lost, was exhibited at the Royal Academyin 1784.

[Samuel Whitbread.]
[Engraved by S.W. Reynolds after James Northcote.]
[n.d., c.1815.]
Mezzotint, proof before letters. 630 x 355mm (24¾ x 14"). Framed. Lettered in pencil. Trimmed to plate, laid on album paper. Mounted over paper edge.
Full length portrait of Samuel Whitbread (1756-1815), politician and brewer, shown with a bust of Fox, the Bill of Rights and a Magna Charta scroll. Whitbread was a friend and early patron of the engraver, Samuel William Reynolds. This mezzotint comes from an album belonging to the Northcote family and is the only example we can trace. Probably the plate was never published, shelved by the family after Whitbread's messy suicide. A lithographed version by Samuel Cecil was published by Ackermann in 1831. The painting hangs in Bedford Magistrates' Court.
Not in CS or Whitman. Ex: Collection of The Hon. C. Lennox-Boyd.
