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.

Tinted lithograph. Sheet 285 x 380mm (11¼ x 15") very large margins. Some abrasion in title and publication line.
The 'Ladies of Llangollen' were Sarah Ponsonby (1755? - 1831), daughter of Chambre Brabazon Ponsonby, cousin of the Earl of Bessborough, and Lady Eleanor Charlotte Butler (1745? - 1829). For fifty years they lived together in complete isolation from society in a cottage at Plasnewydd in the vale of Llangollen, Denbighshire, north Wales. Neither left the cottage for a single night until their deaths. Their devotion to each other and their eccentric manners gave them wide notoriety, becoming a tourist attraction. They lie buried in Plasnewydd churchyard under a triangular pyramid inscribed with their names.

Peasants of the Vale of Llangollen.
H.W. Bunbury Esq.r del.t. J. Baldrey Sculp.t.
London, Pub'd Nov.r. 2; 1783, by W. Dickinson, Engraver & Printseller No. 158 New Bond Street.
Pair of stipple engravings, both sheets 285 x 280mm (11¼ x 11"). Both trimmed to platemark.
Pair of stipples depicting Welsh rural life after Henry Bunbury (1750-1811), amateur artist who enjoyed a successful career as a designer for printsellers. Tim Clayton writes: 'Prints by Bunbury and his imitators were conspicuously 'polite' and appealed, like novels, 'To the Fashionable World and Polite circles'. Of good family, amply endowed with social skills, a beautiful wife and connections in high society, Bunbury's appeal was not solely aesthetic' and his admirers 'recognized his comic talent, his informed enthusiasm for literature, and his ability to draw a momentary pang with something of the sensitivity with which Sterne could write it.' These plates were originally published by the printmaker Joshua Kirby Baldrey in 1781 (for which see ref. 1069)- these are slightly later reissues after the plates had been sold on.
For the individual (coloured) prints see refs. 1068 and 1069.
