Mr Cartwright Consul at Constantinople and his Albanian.
D Wilkie ft. Constantinople Novr 1st 1840. [Lithographed by Joseph Nash.]
[London: Graves & Warmsley, 1843.]
Tinted lithograph. Sheet 535 x 360mm (21 x 14¼") very large margins.
John Cartwright, consul-general at Constantinople from 1817-44, during which time the Levant Company was wound up, with Cartwright taking on the role formerly played by the Company's representative. Despite being described in the plate as an Albanian, Mustapha, Cartwright's janissary, was Swiss by birth. David Wilkie (1785-1841) set out for the East in 1840 to gather material for a series of biblical illustrations, visiting Constantinople, Beirut, Jerusalem, Cairo, and Alexandria. He died at sea on his return journey, before he could turn his sketches into the intended oils: This plate appeared in his 'Sketches in Turkey, Syria and Egypt' published in 1843. Abbey Travel: 379.

Second Edition with Improvements.
London. Printed for John Cary, Engraver, Map & Printseller, Strand. 1st Jan.y 1791. [&] London: Printed for John Cary, No. 181 Strand, 1802 [-3].
Two works in one; 8vo (180 x 120mm, 7 x 4¾"), original full diced calf travelling case with empty pockets front and back. 'Companion': engr. title, pp. (iv)+(6)+(2)(ads); index map, 42 maps printed back to back, 1 folding map. 'Itinerary': engr. title & dedication; pp. (iv)+(1)(ad)+868+(2)(ads). All maps with original hand colour. With the bookplate of Henry Pakenham-Mahon of Strokeston Park. Binding with tear to flap, some wear and fading. Folding map of Yorkshire with tear on fold; two folding maps of 'Itinerary' both trimmed to allow opening of segments, one segment loose, with tears on folds.
An unusual travelling edition of two works by John Cary. The 'Traveller's Companion' has a map of England and Wales, 41 counties and maps of North & South Wales. The 'Itinerary' has two road maps of England & Wales, with extensive indexes of the roads. The adverts list some of Cary's maps, with one page dedicated to his globes. The empty pockets in the covers would most likely contain larger folding maps not called for in either the 'Companion' or 'Itinerary'. Henry Pakenham-Mahon (1851-1922) was an amateur photographer: in 2012, a collection of 324 of his glass plates was uncovered at Strokestown Park including several explicit images of live models. Strokestown (in County Roscommon, Ireland) is now home to the National Irish Famine Museum. Henry's grandfather was Denis Mahon, whose responce to a rent strike by his tenants at Strokestown was to evict them and force them to sail to Quebec in 1847, filling four ships. When news came back to Ireland that nearly half the passengers had died on route (primarily from cholera) Mahon was ambushed and shot dead, to general celebration.

A moon-lit castle with a barge being punted under a bridge. The artist, James Hook (c. 1772 - 1828), became dean of Worcester in 1825. The owner of the original drawing, Lady Charlotte Susan Maria Campbell (1775-1861), became Lady Charlotte Bury after her second marriage. When the 'Diary illustrative of the Times of George IV' was published anonymously in 1838 it was widely believed to be at least based on, if not the actual, diaries kept by her while Lady-in-Waiting to the Princess of Wales, later Queen Caroline. Described as a 'filthy, shameless and execrable work' by the Monthly Review', no one has ever claimed authorship. See Whitman pg 286.
