Mezzotint. 190 x 135mm (7½ x 5¼"), with margins, with slight 17th century watermark.
'Princess of Conti' was a noble title held by the wife of the Prince of Conti. Although this portrait is often said to be Marie Anne de Bourbon (1678-1718), Duchess of Vendôme, it is more likely to be her successor as princess, Marie Thérèse de Bourbon (1666-1732), who received the title on her marriage in 1688.

Pair of hand-coloured etchings with aquatint. Sheets 295 x 355mm (11¾ x 14) Hinged into mount at top. Trimmed. Some repaired tears.
A pair of aquatint copies of Rowlandson's water-colours, all signed 'Rowlandson'. Satires on married life. The first a happy scene; a young couple sit at a breakfast-table near a fire, at which the husband toasts a muffin, while gazing at his wife adoringly who puts her left arm round his shoulder, they are surrounded by their children and pets in a tranquil and loving enviroment. The second scene is of an unhappy marriage; a man and wife fight furiously across a falling table from which dishes of meat crash to the floor. Three scantily clad and screaming children and a barking dog add to the confusion. The high-chair (and potty) of the baby has fallen over, and the child lies on its back helpless.

[Isaac Cruikshank]
London Pub.d by SW Fores N.o 50 Piccadilly Oct.r 29. 1796.
Hand coloured etching, part watermark 1794; 310 x 420mm (12¼ x 16½"). Trimmed within plate mark. Hinged into mount at top corners.
The English mission advances humbly from the left, led by the English diplomat James Harris, 1st Earl of Malmesbury (1746-1820), who bows low before three of the Directors, who are seated haughtily on a platform. Behind them is a canopy on the back of which is a picture of Hercules trying in vain to break a bundle of rods; this is enclosed in a motto: 'Les Francais unis sont invincibles'. They wear an approximation to the official costume of the Directors: long cloaks with deep collars and feathered hats, but which deviates from correctness by its greater resemblance to that of a Spanish don: they wear ruffs over their collars, and breeches instead of the long-belted tunic and sash. The central Director says, with a scowl, "Now you have made your Bow retire till we order you in again Va-t-en"; he takes a pinch of snuff from his neighbour's box. The other two echo 'Va-t-en Va-t-en'; one contemptuously uses a toothpick, the other takes snuff. From Malmesbury's pocket hangs a paper inscribed 'Finesse'. His suite hold banners and all bend low except a man just behind him who carries on his head heavy bales, resembling folded textiles, but inscribed: 'A clear & explicit explanation of an intended Negotiation to procure an hon[or]able Just & Permanent Peace according to existing circumstances'. A sailor on the extreme left, erect behind the bowing diplomats, shouts "Aye, Aye, as clear as mud". He stands in the doorway, which is inscribed 'Directory'. The eight banners are respectively inscribed: '60,000 Foot Militia'; '200,000 Fencibles'; '60,000 Additional Seamen'; '40000 Horse 100,000 Yeomanry Cavalry'; 'Navy Victualling Exchequer Bills Funded'; '50 000 Game Keepers for Rifle Men'; 'Another Loan of 40.000.000'; 'Fortifications all round the Coast'. Malmesbury and five of his followers wear ribbons.

![[Mortimer's Etchings of Figures] To Jos.a Reynolds](jpegs/53765.jpg)
[Mortimer's Etchings of Figures] To Jos.a Reynolds President of the Royal Academy, these Etchings are dedicated by his humble Serv.t J.H. Mortimer.
Published Dec.r 8th 1778 by J. Mortimer Norfolk Street Strand [but Thomas Palser, 1812?].
Folio, 370 x 275mm (14½ x 10¾"), original boards with printed title label; etched title and 16 plates, some watermarked '1811'. A little wear to covers, plates generally clean.
A posthumous edition of Mortimer's 'Fifteen Etchings', a collection of romantic scenes inspired by Mortimer's hero, the painter Salvador Rosa (a portrait of whom is one of the plates); the subjects include banditti, allegorical figures of Comedy and Tragedy, a portrait of painter Gerard Lairesse and six fantastical plates of sea-monsters. Two of the monsters are additional plates, by Mortimer but dated 1780, added to the work by Mortimer's widow Jane. The series was dedicated to the President of the Royal Academy the year that Mortimer first exhibited there (rather than at the Society of Artists) and, shortly after, elected A.R.A. Mortimer died in 1779, aged only 38. His widow republished the plates in 1780, with the addition of two more plates of sea-monsters ('Revengeful' and 'Sleeping', dated 1780 but both drawn and engraved by Mortimer). Christie's held a sale of Jane Mortimer's property in 1808, at which Thomas Palser presumably bought the printing plates: he published 'Mortimer's works: a collection of fifty historical designs' (including this series) in 1812, with a second edition in 1816
