Painted by Samuel Lane. Engraved by W.m Ward, Engraver to His Majesty.
London, Published March 15th 1836, by Francis Graves & Co. Late Colnaghi & Co. Cockspur Street, Charing Cross.
Mezzotint. 405 x 330mm, 16 x 13". Crease in margin.
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!

I.C. [Isaac Cruikshank]
London Pub Nov 10 1796 by S W Fores 50 Piccadilly.
Coloured etching. 350 x 210mm (13¾ x 8¼"). Narrow margins.
Satirical portrait of James Harris (1746-1820), 1st Earl of Malmesbury, sitting with both thumbs in his mouth. A career diplomat, he served in Madrid, Berlin, St Petersburg and the Hague and was sent to Brunswick to solicit the hand of Princess Caroline for the Prince of Wales. This satire relates to one of his less successful missions: in 1796 he was sent to negotiate peace with the French Directory. A conversation was quoted in the London Chronicle in which Malmesbury told Delacroix, French Minister of Foreign Affairs, that he would have to contact London to ask if he was authorized to conclude a treaty for the allies of Great Britain.

Taniers, better known as Malplaquet, was the bloodiest battle of the eighteenth century, fought during the war of the Spanish Succession (1701-14). The Allies, under Marlborough and Prince Eugene of Savoy, beat the French, but, having 21,000 dead to the French army's 11,000, it was a pyrrhic victory. The losses prompted the English Tory party to begin agitating for a withdrawal from the war.

Taniers, better known as Malplaquet, was the bloodiest battle of the eighteenth century, fought during the war of the Spanish Succession (1701-14). The Allies, under Marlborough and Prince Eugene of Savoy, beat the French, but, having 21,000 dead to the French army's 11,000, it was a pyrrhic victory. The losses prompted the English Tory party to begin agitating for a withdrawal from the war.

Capitulation de la Ville de Malte, le 14 prairial, an 6.e.
Duplessi-Bertaux inv. & del. Desaulx Sculp.
[Paris: Auber, 1804.]
Etching, 230 x 305mm (9 x 12"), with four pages of text.
A view of the capture of Valetta by the French, 1798. Napoleon Bonaparte was en route to Egypt when he stopped at Valletta. When his request for supplies was refused by the Knights of Malta he made ready to attack the fortress. The Grand Master, Ferdinand von Hompesch zu Bolheim, capitulated immediately, knowing he could not depend on the allegiance of the French Knights. Six days after he arrived Napoleon sailed on to Egypt, leaving Malta in French control until 1800. A popular revolt had driven the French into the safety of Valleta, which a British blockade, led by Nelson, forced the garrison to surrender. Published in the 'Collection complète des tableaux historiques de la révolution française'.

from a Daguerrotype. Hullmandel & Walton, Lith.
Lithograph on india paper, printed area 170 x 100mm. Glues stains in margins.
Provenance: Bracebridge Archive. Selina Bracebridge, maiden-name Mills, was a pupil of Samuel Prout. Her husband was the Bracebridge celebrated in Washington Irving’s Bracebridge Hall. From the mid-1830s, they settled for some years in Athens. He owned large properties in Karea and Euboca, the latter of which he sold to the Noel family; and they both lived in a large house on Adrianou Street. 1850, saw the publication of Mr. Bracebridge’s 'Letter on the Affairs of Greece'. Bracebridge was Florence Nightingale’s uncle. Their time spent in Athens and the Levant is not clear; however it seems likely that they were settled in Athens from about 1835 to 1839, with frequent trips to England. Similarly, it is most likely that on their return back to the UK, they continued to own property in Greece. A painting by Selina is in the possession of the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.
