[Monogram of Paul Pry - John Phillips?] Esq.r.
Pub by S. Gans, 15 Southampton St. Strand, July 28 1829_Sole publisher of Paul Pry's Caricatures.

Pub. by S. Gans, 15 Southampton St. Strand June 1, 1829.
Fine coloured etching. 245 x 355mm (9¾ x 14"), with large margins. Slightly creased down centre.
Henry Hunt, in a rage, hurls a jar of his 'Hunts Matchless Blacking' at Lord Mayor William Thompson's head. Thompson, in his gown, smiles and raises the City mace in both hands defensively. At Hunt's feet is a paper: 'Petition against increased Duty on Coals'; just behind him is a pugnacious coal-heaver (Lord Durham) clutching a blacking-jar. Behind the Mayor is a barrister in wig and gown, probably the Recorder (Newman Knowlys). Henry Hunt the demagogue is here conflated with another Henry Hunt, one of the City Auditors, who presented a petition to the Lords through Lord Durham alleging that obstacles had prevented his auditing of City Accounts and of mismanagement of City Estates. The petition by his feet relates to the City's request for a tax on coals towards the expanses of the new London Bridge, part of Hunt's objections.

At Hunt's feet is a paper: 'Petition against increased Duty on Coals'; just behind him is a pugnacious coal-heaver (Lord Durham) clutching a blacking-jar. Behind the Mayor is a barrister in wig and gown, probably the Recorder (Newman Knowlys). Henry Hunt the demagogue is here conflated with another Henry Hunt, one of the City Auditors, who presented a petition to the Lords through Lord Durham alleging that obstacles had prevented his auditing of City Accounts and of mismanagement of City Estates. The petition by his feet relates to the City's request for a tax on coals towards the expanses of the new London Bridge, part of Hunt's objections.

Margate, from the Parade.
P.J. De Loutherbourg R.A. del.t. J. Hill sculp.t.
Pub.d Oct.r 1, 1809 by I. & W. Macgavin, No. 107 New Bond Street, London.
Fine coloured aquatint, 390 x 550mm (15¼ x 21¾"), on paper watermarked 'J. Whatman 1808', with wide margins.
The harbour of Margate, Kent, from Philip James De Loutherbourg's great work 'Picturesque Scenery of Great Britain'. This series of six large aquatints had been originally published by Bowyer in 1801, with plates etched by J.C. Stadler; for this second edition the plates were re-engraved by John Hill, with only slight differences. The German-born painter had already made his name in Paris before moving to London in 1771, where he became the principal scenery designer for Garrick at London's Drury Lane Theatre. Also in the theatre, he invented the 'Eidophusikon', a moving panorama enhanced with mirrors, displayed with accompanying music.
