To Lady Jervis This Print of The Cowthorpe Oak is Most Respectfully dedicated by her Ladyships most obliged Servant Charles Empson.
Painted by Geo. W. Fothergill. Drawn on Stone by W. Monkhouse, York.
[London: Ackermann & Co., 1842.]
Rare & scarce tinted lithograph, heightened in white. Sheet 340 x 400mm (13¼ x 15¾"). Small stain in sky.
A famous oak tree at Cowthorpe, near Wetherby, Yorkshire, said to predate the Norman Conquest. By the 19th century many of its branches had to be propped, but it lasted until 1950, when it fell and died, apparently after being hit by lightning. Dugdale wrote in his 'Antiquities of England': 'At this village may be seen the famous oak, exceeding in size even the Greendale oak at Welbeck in Nottinghamshire. The principal branch was rent off in 1718 in a storm, and being accurately measured was found to contain upwards of five tons of timber. Its present circumference at the ground is 60 feet, its principal limb extends 45 feet from the trunk, and its shadow is said to cover half an acre'.

A man is sat down having removed his wig to reveal a large bare head; a scientist with a look of glee, stands over fingers poised to examine. From a collection of Six amateur caricatures, drawn by Edward Stanley (1779-1849), who served as Bishop of Norwich 1837-1849. At the time of publication he was rector of Alderley, Cheshire, a position he held for 32 years. This and the two other satires he produced ('Bustle’s Banquet' & 'Dinner of the Dogs') were probably published locally, accounting for the absence of these caricatures in our national collections. His authorship is only confirmed by the 1907 publication of his collected letters.

Portrait of William, Earl of Craven; one hand on his helmet to the right, the other holding a truncheon. Illustration to John Guillim's, 'Display of Heraldrie' (1679). William Craven, 1st Earl of Craven (1608-1697), an English nobleman, Royalist and soldier. He fought for Frederick V on the Continent and fell in love with his wife, Elizabeth of Bohemia, the daughter of James I. On the outbreak of civil war in 1642, Craven was living at The Hague with Elizabeth, whom he supported financially for many years. He took no direct part in the civil wars, but his royalist sympathies and and financial assistance to the Crown provoked retaliation- in 1651 his English estates were seized and sold to raise funds for the Commonwealth fleet.
