The Don-Key Turn'd Mayor Or an Ass in the Chair.
[Anon., 1830.]
Lithograph, sheet 360 x 255mm. 14¼ x 10".
An ass with the head of Sir John Key (1794 – 1858), Lord Mayor of London, sits erect in an arm-chair, hind legs on a stool, forelegs extended towards a horse prancing towards him over a table. The horse represents Sir Claudius Stephen Hunter (1775 – 1851), a former Lord Mayor, and it looks at Key with startled eye and open mouth. The King and Duke of Wellington’s visit to Guildhall for the Lord Mayor’s Day dinner on 9th November was abandoned on Key’s advice; he feared riots and the Duke’s assassination. He and his colleagues were widely lampooned as a result.

Doctor Adam Donald, Prophet of Bethelnie. Born Anno 1703. ob: Anno 1780. Engraved for The Bee.
J: W,,s [John Williams] ad viv: delint. 1772.
[n.d., 1791]
Rare copper engraving. 145 x 90mm (5¾ x 3½").
Quack doctor Adam Donald (1703-80). Born in Aberdeenshire with disabilities that prevented him from a life of manual labour, his mannerisms, charm, and apparent skills led to his calling as a spiritualist. Donald was called to consult on all matters related to health by the local citizens. A habit of lurking through churchyards ‘speaking’ with the dead fuelled his supernatural legitimacy, while owning several books in other languages (of which he could not speak) contributed to his scholarly image among the townspeople. Prescribing remedies ranging from milk baths to singing on chimneys, he could do no harm. If a death occurred it was the patient’s mistake for not following the ‘Prophet’s’ orders, never Donald’s. While Donald’s wife kept his secret during their marriage, his daughter exposed him as a quack and fraud following his death in 1780.

Ginevra Donati. She was an only child-her name Ginevra-The joy, the pride of an indulgent Father; And in her fifteenth year became a bride, Marrying and only son, Francesco Doria...Within that chest had she concealed herself, Fluttering with joy, the happiest of the happy, When a spring-look that lay in ambush there, Fastened her down for ever. Vide Roger's "Italy".
Painted by John Porter. Engraved by John Porter.

Nürnberg im Verlag von G.N. Renners Kunsthandlung. [n.d., c.1830.]
Etching. Sheet 165 x 265mm (6¼ x 10¼"). Trimmed, lateral edges toned, small tear. Damaged.
A scene of the Russo-Turkish War of 1828–1829, showing the Russians crossing the Danube in boats. The war started after the Russians helped the Greek independence movement fight the Battle of Navarino in 1827: the Turks closed the Dardanelles to Russian ships and revoked the Akkerman Convention. The war ended with the Treaty of Adrianople, which increased Russian dominance around the Black Sea area and Georgia, and, most importantly, forced the Sultan to promise autonomy for Greece.

Thomas Doolittle (1630-1707) was a nonconformist clergyman. Doolittle learnt his preaching methods from Richard Baxter, who later encouraged him to enter the ministry, leaving his occupation as assistant to a county lawyer. In 1653 Doolittle received Presbyterian ordination but committed himself to a Church of England congregation where he served until he was eventually ejected for nonconformity in 1662. He was however eminently successful at that ministry.

He returned to the throne after the disasterous conclusion to the war for the British. The Hon. Emily Eden, the seventh daughter of William Eden, first baron Auckland, accompanied her brother, George, Lord Auckland (1784-1849) to India, where he served as Governor-General from 1835-1842. A highly gifted amateur artist and writer, Eden recorded her observations of life in India during this period in the form of letters and an extensive collection of sketches, meeting people like Dost Mohammed using her brother's influence. On her return to England in 1842, Eden arranged to have her images printed privately as a portfolio of 24 lithographs.

Dost Mohammed Khan had been Emir of Afghanistan until he was deposed by the British in 1839 at the beginning of the First Afghan War and exiled to Mussoorie. He returned to the throne after the disasterous conclusion to the war for the British. The Hon. Emily Eden, the seventh daughter of William Eden, first baron Auckland, accompanied her brother, George, Lord Auckland (1784-1849) to India, where he served as Governor-General from 1835-1842. A highly gifted amateur artist and writer, Eden recorded her observations of life in India during this period in the form of letters and an extensive collection of sketches, meeting people like Dost Mohammed using her brother's influence. On her return to England in 1842, Eden arranged to have her images printed privately as a portfolio of 24 lithographs.
