Eigentliche Abbildung des Frankosisch-gewesenen Obristen De la Brosse.
[n.d., c.1677.]
Rare engraving, pt 17th century watermark. Sheet 165 x 135mm (6½ x 5¼"). Trimmed to plate, mounted in album paper.
A caricature portrait of Captain De la Brosse, a French soldier nicknamed 'L’incendiaire' (arsonist) for setting fire to Haguenau (then a German city) on 10th February 1677, during the Franco-Dutch War (1672-78). De La Brosse was killed in a melée with Imperial troops soon after, his body stripped and left. In this satire, by Johann Chrisoph Sartorius, he is depicted with long hair, wearing a hat and lace cravat, sash and jacket, his face seemingly blackened. The letterpress mocks his appearance.

Waterloo Bridge & St Pauls from Richmond Terrace.
On Stone by M.A.J. Whitby. 1858. Sketched by Adm.l Sartorius.
Rare lithograph, printed on chine collé, with hand colour. 180 x 230mm (7 x 9").
An amateur view of the Waterloo Bridge, St Paul's Cathedral and the Shot Tower, by Admiral George Sartorius (1790-1883), who had witnessed the surrender of Napoleon Bonaparte aboard the Bellerophon at Rochefort. The printmaker, Mary Anne Theresa Whitby (1784-1850), was married to Captain John Whitby, flag captain for Admiral Sir William Cornwallis. They lived on the admiral's estate, Newlands: after John's death in 1806, Mary stayed on, spending much of her time with Cornwallis, who left his estate to her on his death in 1819. Being a keen amateur lithographer, Whitby established a private press at Newlands, but she is better remembered for the first successful sericulture (silk production) to England after three centuries of attempts, presenting twenty yards of damask to Queen Victoria in 1844. She performed genetic experiments on her silkworms for Charles Darwin, who published her results in his 'The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication' (1868).
