A Correct Likeness of William Corder, Taken in Bury Gaol, previous to his Trial for the Murder of Maria Marten, in the Red Barn.
Published Aug.t 4, 1828, by John Fairburn, Broadway, Ludgate Hill.
Scarce etching with hand colour, plate 230 x 150mm (9 x 6"), large margins. Some very light foxing and surface dirt.
William Corder (1803-28), the Red Barn murderer. Corder, a fraudster and ladies' man, made a rendezvous with his girlfriend Maria Marten at the barn (which is shown here below the portrait) on the pretext of eloping. Instead he killed her, stuffed her body in a sack and buried her. Corder disappeared and wrote home pretending the two were together, but Marten's body was discovered and a hunt for Corder started. He was, arrested, tried, and sentenced to be hung and dissected. The hanging attracted a huge crowd; the dissection was performed before an audience of Cambridge students. A battery was connected to his limbs to demonstrate muscle contraction; Corder's skin was tanned by the surgeon George Creed and used to bind an account of the murder; and his skeleton was put on display in the Hunterian Museum in the Royal College of Surgeons.

[London: Elizabeth Stuart, 1794.]
Engraving. 360 x 510mm, 14 x 20". Trimmed to plate at top, large margins on 3 sides..
A view of the exterior of the Temple of Apollo, Corinth, published in the 'Antiquities of Athens and Other Monuments of Greece' by James 'Athenian' Stuart & Nicholas Revett. Stuart (1713–88) and Revett (1720–1804) joined Gavin Hamillton and Matthew Brettingham on a Grand Tour of Italy, the Balkans & Greece between 1748-55. On their return they started work on the 'Antiquities', which was the first accurate survey of the surviving classical buildings of Athens, with the first volume published in 1762, the second 1789, third 1794, fourth 1816 and fifth 1830 (nearly 80 years after the first). The work was incredibly influential, fueling the Greek revivalist style in 18th-century English architecture. The attention to detail was such that it attracted the attention of Hogarth, who satirised the work with his 'Five Orders of Periwig'.
Stuart's gouache of the temple is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, RIBA Library Drawings Collection, SD146/2.

Very fine stipple, printed in brown. 420 x 490mm (16½ x 19¼"). Trimmed to platemark bottom & top edge. Small margin at sides.
Scene from Act 5, Scene 3 of Shakespeare's tragedy 'Coriolanus'. Stipple engraving by Francesco Bartolozzi after Angelica Kauffman. Bartolozzi was born in Florence but migrated to England, and in 1768 was elected as a founding member of the Royal Academy in London (the RA did not admit engravers at this time but made an exception in his case, getting around the rules by electing Bartolozzi as a painter). He was already hailed as the best engraver in Italy when he met George III's librarian Richard Dalton in 1763. Dalton enticed Bartolozzi to London with a promise of an appointment as engraver to the king. In England he became the most celebrated exponent of the 'stipple' technique whereby he produced prints using dots rather than lines. In 1801 Bartolozzi was invited to Lisbon to reform the royal printing press, and he spent his final years in Portugal.
