Battaglia Navale trà Inglesi et Olandesi seguita alli XI, e iz di Settembre L'Anno 1666 nel Mare Brittanico.
[Etched by Gerard Bouttats?]
[Vienna, c.1672.]
Etching, scarce. 305 x 415mm (12 x 16¼"). Small margins, slightly foxed. Tear and splits in binding folds with old repairs, chips in margins.
A sea battle during the Second Anglo-Dutch War (1665-7), fought over mercentile supremacy. As no notable sea battle was fought in September the battle is likely to be the 'St James' Day Battle', fought 4-5th August off North Foreland and Orfordness. The Flemish engraver Gerard Bouttats, who worked in Antwerp, Cologne and Vienna, illustrated Galeazzo Gualdo Priorato's histories, including an Italian-text map of the Dutch attack on Medway in 1667.

Sofonisba Angosciola.
From an original Painting by herself in the Gallery at Althorp. Engraved by Hawksworth.
[n.d. c.1760.]
Engraving. 165 x 121mm. 6½ x 4¾". Trimmed to platemark.
Taken from a "Self-Portrait with Clavichord", 1561. Sofonisba Anguissola (c.1532-1625) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance. As a female artist and within a certain class, she could not transcend the contraints of her sex. Despite this setback, she sought to stylise portraiture which in turn led her to be invited to join the Spanish Court, which became the turning point in her career, and King Philip II took a great interest in her future, wellbeing and artwork. She is one of few female artists mentioned in Vesari's "Lives of Artists."

Anne, queen of Great Britain and Ireland (1665-1714). Anne's twelve year reign proved a watershed between the violence of the seventeenth century and the stability and prosperity of the eighteenth century, which owed much to her personally. In 1707 she signed the Act of Union, uniting England and Scotland to create the Kingdom of Great Britain; Anne's fervent support for the Union contributed significantly to its acceptance by both kingdoms. Meanwhile, her staunch support of the duke of Marlborough in the face of opposition made it possible for him to use his skills to re-establish the balance of power in Europe. During Anne's reign neither political party triumphed; the final victory of the whigs came only after her death, with the reign of George I (whose Hanoverian succession Anne supported).

[1660]
Engraving with accompanying letterpress sheet, each 470 x 350mm (18½ x 13¾"), with very large margins. Slight foxing.
Anne de Montmorency (1493-1567), French soldier, statesman and diplomat. Montmorency spent most of his career serving under king Francis I, fighting in the Italian wars and then, as governor of Languedoc, defending Provence against the invasion of Charles V from northern Italy. He was also an important diplomat, working with Cardinal Wolsey to negotiate an alliance between Francis I and Henry VII in 1527, although he fell from favour after a settlement he brokered with Charles V failed. Montmorency recovered his previous status, however, under subsequent French monarchs. From 'Les Portraits des Hommes Illustres Francois qui sont Peints dans la Galerie du Palais Cardinal de Richelieu' (1660). The book reproduces the portraits of great men hanging in Richelieu's 'Galerie des hommes illustres' by Simon Vouet and Philippe de Champaigne (although only four of the original paintings survive). The final 'illustrious figure' was Richelieu himself.
