Portrait of a Guerilla Chief.
WH [William Heath] Del et Sculp.
Pub May 8 1823 by G Humphrey 24 St James's St & 74 New Bond St.
Hand coloured etching. Sheet 260 x 205mm (10¼ x 8"). Trimmed to printed border.
Caricature of a Spanish guerrilla, dressed like a peasant mountaineer rather than of a soldier, standing on a ledge, cocking his musket as he sees regular troops below. In 1820 Spain, a revolt led to a Republican government, but by 1823 the country had descended into civil war. This figure is presumably a Republican, fighting against the Monarchist 'Army of the Faith' (subject of a companion print, BM 14522). In the end order was restored when the European powers agreed that Louis XVIII could lead a French Army of 100,000 into Spain.
BM Satires: 14523.

Plan of the Principal Field of Action between the Rivers Cottica and Marawina; with a Sketch of the Manner of Encamping in the Woods of Surinam.
London, Published Dec.r 1.st 1791, by J. Johnson, St. Paul's Church Yard.
Engraving. Plate 210 x 451mm. 8¼ x 17¾". Slight offsetting; folds as issued, with tears into lower edges of fold.
A map showing the action against the rebellious slaves; the insert map shows how the camp was designed so that the match was somewhat against surprise attacks. Nr. 1 is the cabin of Colonel Fourgeaud; 2. The huts of the officers; 3. The huts of the other men in a large triangle; 4. Ammunition, provisions, medicines, etc; 5. Campfires at each angle; 6. Trees or barns to cabins to build; 7. A creek to the camp of fresh water supply; and 8. The surrounding forest. Published in "Narrative, of a Five Years’ Expedition, Against the Revolted Negroes of Surinam, in Guiana, on the Wild Coast of South America", by Captain John Gabriel Stedman. The Dutch captured the British colony of Suriname during the Second Anglo-Dutch War (1667). Under the West India Company it was developed as a plantation slave society and became a primary destination for the Dutch slave trade. The brutal regime caused high mortality; despite the import of 300,000 slaves between 1668 and 1823, the population never grew beyond 50,000. ‘Maroonage’ became the major form of resistance. Fugitive slaves, or ‘maroons’, escaped inland to form permanent communities from where they waged a campaign of guerrilla warfare against the Dutch. In 1774 the Scottish-Dutch soldier John Gabriel Stedman witnessed the brutal oppression of slaves during a campaign against the maroons, which he described in this book. The work contained 80 engravings by various hands which are generally acknowledged to have been based on drawings made by Captain J.G. Stedman, although only two of the plates bear his name. Stedman was a personal friend of William Blake’s and it is likely that William Blake modified Stedman’s designs, being those of an amateur artist. From the sole surviving watercolour by Stedman for this work, it is known that the engravers involved were allowed considerable liberty in adapting Stedman’s designs. The book was adopted by those who advocated the abolition of the slave trade, though Stedman was thought to support reform rather than abolition.

Stipple. Sheet 145 x 95mm (5¾ x 3¾"). Trimmed within plate, losing publication line, mounted in album paper.
Dr. Joseph-Ignace Guillotin (1738-1814) hoped that a more humane and less painful method of execution than hanging would be the first step toward a total abolition of the death penalty. The use of his name for the machine designed by Antoine Louis was a life-long embarassment. Although he was arrested during the Terror he avoided the death penalty and died of natural causes.
