Michel Malard (b.1676), religious controversialist and tutor in French. Raised by Catholic parents in France, he moved to England in around 1700 and converted to Protestantism at the French church of the Savoy in London. He then became an episcopalian and began publishing frequent attacks against the French committee for the distribution of the £15,000 allocated annually to French protestants (Malard's own allowance was withdrawn). Malard also wrote several manuals on French grammar, and in one, dedicated to George I, Malard is described as French tutor to the duaghters of the prince of Wales (and future George II).

D.d Lockley Sc. [c.1719]
Engraving, sheet 160 x 95mm (6¼ x 3¾"). Trimmed; false margins added. Rare.
Michel Malard (b.1676), religious controversialist and tutor in French. Raised by Catholic parents in France, he moved to England in around 1700 and converted to Protestantism at the French church of the Savoy in London. He then became an episcopalian and began publishing frequent attacks against the French committee for the distribution of the £15,000 allocated annually to French protestants (Malard's own allowance was withdrawn). Malard also wrote several manuals on French grammar, and in one, dedicated to George I, Malard is described as French tutor to the duaghters of the prince of Wales (and future George II).

Sir Pulteney Malcolm (1768-1838), GCB, GCMG. In 1805 a refit to his ship caused him to miss the battle of Trafalgar, although he helped with the mopping-up. Promoted to be rear-admiral on 4 December 1813, he carried a detachment of the army from Bordeaux to North America for the War of 1815. In 1816-17 he was Commander-in-chief on the Saint Helena station, ensuring that Napoleon Bonaparte remained. After being appointed vice-admiral in 1821, he was commander-in-chief in the Mediterranean 1828-1831. His final rank was Admiral of the Blue, from 1837. As this portrait was published a decade after the death of William Ward, the engraver is likely to be his son, William James Ward.

Maria F. Malibran. [Ink:] We have observed her in different points of view: we have seen her exalted on the dangerous pinnacle of worldly prosperity, surrounded by fawning and flattering friends, and an admiring world. We have seen her marked out by prejudice as an object of dislike. We have seen her bowed down by pain and bodily weakness; but never did we see her forget the urbanity of her sex, her conscious dignity as a rational creature, or a fervent aspiration after the highest degree of attainable perfection. We have seen her on the bed of sickness, enduring pain with the patience of a Christian, with the firm belief that the afflictions of this life are but for a moment!

Peint par F. Eisen le Pere Gravé par Louis Halbou 1763.
A Paris chez la V.e de F. Chereau rue St. Jacques au 2 Pilliers d'Or Ou chez Halbou rue de la Comedie Francoise au Soleil d'Or
Fine engraving, platemark 355 x 270mm (14 x 10½"). Trimmed to platemark on left; glued to album sheet at corners.
Scene in trompe l'oeil border showing a mischievous boy with his weapons (a blowpipe and balls), with verses below warning him that one day the arrows of love will injure him in the same way. Engraved after François Eisen (c.1695-1778), painter who specialised in such genre pictures in a light-hearted Flemish manner. Eisen's son Charles was also a notable artist, hence the need to identify Eisen as 'Pater' [father] on this print. Part of a series of prints in this format after paintings by Eisen, with texts focusing on love, beauty and deception (in particular compare ref.44945, 'Le beau Commissaire').
