[n.d., c.1859.]
Tinted lithograph with large margins. Extremely rare. Sheet size: 400 x 515mm (15¾ x 20¼"). Creasing, some foxing. Loss to margins top left.
The 'Little Lucy', built in 1858 in Stockton, by Richardson, Duck & Co. was Teeside's first steel ship. It was built for river service in the Brazils, travelling from England to Bahia after it was originally due to be sent in loose plates and constructed on arrival. It was decided to test 'Little Lucy', sailing to Falmouth from the Tees before embarking across the Atlantic under sail and steam, to South America. The severe weather the ship successfully endured on this test trip proved that for such a small ship, she was a 'good and safe sea boat'. An explanation of the ship's construction and voyage is printed below the title.

Very scarce lithograph with hand colour. Sheet 310 x 245mm (12¼ x 9¾"). Laid on scrapbook page.
A racist satire, the second in a series of three, taking the form of a man advertising his desire to find a wife. Although the illustration makes it clear he is black, the text, written in the third person, includes the line 'he has already expressly stated that he is by no means a [n-word]', and makes in plain that he is looking for a white wife, not a 'sable lady'. He writes he can be viewed in Hyde Park or the Burlington Arcade if it is raining. The third print in the series (BM Satires 15154) shows him as a very short man, engaged to a white woman who towers above him; an ink and watercolour sketch in the Lewis Walpole collection (lwlpr13368), apparently unpublished, shows him with a son.

Liverati, Giovanni (1772-1846). Dramatic singer and composer; born at Bologna. His early musical instruction was under Giuseppe and Ferdinand Tibbaldi, who were celebrated composers. At the age of fourteen he began to study under Abbate Mattei for piano, organ, thorough-bass and composition. Later he took singing lessons from Lorenzo Gibelli. At seventeen he had composed some psalms, and two years later appeared his first dramatic composition, a one-act opera. About the same time he composed a mass for two voices with organ accompaniment, also The Seven Words of Jesus Christ on the Cross, for three voices with wind accompaniment, and A Grand Requiem Mass. In early youth he had been a singer in churches and concerts, and in 1792 he became first tenor in the Italian Theatre in Barcelona. Afterwards he went to Madrid, and for several years he directed Italian Opera at Potsdam, besides performing the duties of chapel-master at Prague and Trieste. He went to Vienna in 1805, where he taught singing, remaining there until 1814, when he went to London as a composer to the King's Theatre. In Vienna he stood on terms of intimacy with the celebrated masters, Haydn, Beethoven, Kozeluch and Salieri. Liverati wrote fourteen operas; several cantatas; two oratorios; many vocal compositions; several stringed quartets; and much sacred music.
