John Hawkesworth (c.1715 - 1773) compiled ‘An Account of the Voyages undertaken by order of his present Majesty for making Discoveries in the Southern Hemisphere...', 1773, which contained the official account of Captain Cook's first circumnavigation. Adverse criticism to the book affected his health and he died the year of publication. This is engraved from a portrait by Reynolds. According to DNB, 'Hawkesworth appears to have sat to Sir Joshua Reynolds four times, viz.: in September 1769, January 1770, October 1772, and July 1773'. It also notes that 'Malone also records that Sir Joshua Reynolds told him that Hawkesworth was latterly ‘an affected insincere man and a great coxcomb in his dress'. Not in Kivell.

[n.d., c.1748.]
Engraving. Plate: 185 x 120mm (7¼ x 4¾''). Damage on right edge.
A scene showing a group of men standing around the body of a man. William Galley was a customs officer called as a witness of the events of the Hawkhurst Gang raiding the Customs House in Poole. The Hawkhurst Gang were a notorious criminal smuggling gang that terrorised the Southeast of England for over ten years. The gang had organised a large shipment of about thirty hundredweight of tea, 39 casks of brandy and rum and a small bag of coffee to be unloaded at Christchurch Bay, however the ship was captured and the cargo taken to Poole Custom House. The Hawkhurst Gang successfully raided the Custom House and took all the tea, leaving the rum and the coffee, perhaps due to difficulties with transportation. William Galley got lost on his travels to identify a captured member of the Hawkhurst Gang and so stayed at the White Hart Inn at Rowlands Castle which happened to be a smugglers inn and he was attacked by members of the gang who happened to be at the inn at the time. The gang were ultimately defeated by the Goudhurst militia and the leaders were executed in 1748 and 1749.

Fine engraving. 349 x 260mm (13¾ x 10¼"). Trimmed.
Lucy Hay, Countess of Carlisle (1599-1660) was an English courtier known for her beauty and wit. She was involved in many political intrigues during the English Civi War, and became second wife to James Hay, 1st Earl of Carlisle. She is known for disclosing to her cousin Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex of the King's intended arrest of the five members of Long Parliament, which enabled Essex and the other to escape. Lombart's most famous work was the series of twelve portraits after van Dyck that he engraved around 1660, often known as the 'Countesses' from the Latin of their titles. Mariette in his entry on Lombart in his Abecedario stated that this set alone would suffice to place him 'au rang des premiers graveurs'. All twelve plates are the same size, and show three-quarter-length figures, ten women and two men, in 15mm wide borders that imitate frames of the period.
