Moseley Hall, belonged to John Taylor, and was burnt down after the rioters had carefully moved all the furniture and belongings of the occupant, the Dowager Lady Carhampton, a relative of George III . The Priestley Riots, the Birmingham Riots of 1791, targeted religious Dissenters, most notably the politically and theologically controversial Joseph Priestley. From "Views of the Ruins of the Principal Houses destroyed during the Riots at Birmingham. 1791." On the 14th of July, 1791, a party having met at an hotel to celebrate the anniversary of the French revolution, collected together as a mob, and proceeded for several days their devastations, setting fire to several meeting-houses and private mansions, but on the arrival of the military from Oxford and Hounslow, order was restored: at the ensuing assizes four of the ring-leaders were convicted, two of whom suffered the penalty of the law. Shortly after this occurrence barracks were erected on the Vauxhall-road, near the town, consisting of a range of handsome buildings, enclosing a spacious area for the exercise of cavalry, and a smaller for parades, a riding-school, a magazine, and an hospital.

Lithograph, sheet 435 x 320mm (17 x 12½"). Glued to original backing sheet.
Mary breastfeeding the Christ child in a landscape, probably after a panel by the Netherlandish painter and ecclesiastic Jan van Scorel (1495-1562). Large lithograph by Ignaz Bergmann, probably for the 'Galerie des Frères Boisserée', an ambitious project in the early nineteenth century to publish prints of the extraordinary collection of early German and Netherlandish painting assembled by Sulpiz and Melchior Boisserée following the closure of many churches and monsteries by the invading French. This was instigated by Johsnn Neopomuk Strixner, who after seeing the collection in 1819 gave up a steady job, sold his house and possessions, and dedicated all of his energies to the project.

A scene showing the prophetess Ursula Southeil (1488-1561) known as Mother Shipton, sitting before a fire with Abbott of Beverly. The true story of Ursula Southeil is unknown and various legends exsist about her life and powers. One story states that she was the daughter of a 15 year old unmarried girl who took Ursula and went and lived in a cave. They were helped by the Abbot of Beverly who found a good home for the child. Mother Shipton's cave is now a tourist site in Knaresborough.
