Peoples of all parts of the world bring fruits, plants and animals to the French monarch for use in natural medicines. Frontispiece to 'Pharmacopée Royale, Galenique, et Chymique' (first published 1676), an important treatise by the French apothecary Moyse Charas (1619-98) and the first European medical book translated into Chinese. While the frontispiece remained the same for several subsequent editions of the work, the excellent impression substantiates the claim that it was printed by 1680. According to manucript on the album sheet to which it is attached, the print was presented by Charas himself to the Earl of Winchelsea in 1680, and Charas wrote the inscription on the reverse of the print. Charas' other achievements included publishing the formula for theriac, a medicine used to treat a variety of ailments. Due to persecution in France, he also spent time in England, Spain, and the Netherlands.

[King Charles I.]
W.M. scul: [William Marshall.]
[n.d., c.1640.]
Engraving. Sheet 210 x 155mm (8¼ x 6¼"). Trimmed close to image. 17th century watermark.
Equestrian portrait of Charles I, sword in hand, mounted on a grey. The manuscript suggests the print was engraved from a painting by van Dyke that came up for sale in 1840; however it is a composite from different sources. William Marshal is most famous for his 'Eikon Basilike' (The Image of the King), published just ten days after Charles' execution, showing the monarch as a Christian martyr.

Engraving. Sheet 540 x 350mm (21¼ x 13¾"). Trimmed into image, damaged, tears to folds bottom right.
An equestrian portrait of Charles I in armour, battle scene behind, an impression from the famous 'headless horseman' plate. The king has a distinct 'halo' from obvious re-engraving. Although the original oil (attributed to van Dyck, with one copy now in Buckingham Palace, the other in Petworth House) depicted Charles I, the earliest known impression of this plate shows Cromwell, although even that example had been re-engraved. The next state is also Cromwell, followed by one headless, two of Louis XIV, a Cromwell, a Charles I and finally Cromwell again.
