[A man tunes a guitar.]
[Francis Fane.]
[n.d. c.1850.]
Etching, extremely scarce. 109 x 120mm. 4¼ x 4¾".
A man tunes a guitar sat in front of a large manuscript open to read: "W: W 1851. May." Colonel Francis Augustus Fane (1824-1893) was a Colonel who fought in the Indian Mutiny. He was commander of the Peshawar Light Horse. He gained the rank of Colonel in the service of the 25th Regiment. His life was full of excitement starting first as a soldier, then a banker before settling down as a country gentleman. He started life as a soldier in Antigua where he did some extensive sightseeing before returning to England for his second assignment which took him to Quebec, leading to further sightseeing with his uncle Major -General Mildmay Fane, around Niagara, New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Washington and Boston. In 1854 he returned to England to immediately join his uncle in India. It was until 1860 when he next moved to join the 25th regiment in Gibraltar. Following the death of his father in 1862 and the later death of his brother-in-law Anthony Willson, the Sleaford banker in 1866, he returned in November to end his army career, and embarked on a career in banking and finance. During his time as a soldier he managed to find a lot of free time to indulge in numerous pastimes. This enabled him to become adept at music, and at drawing, painting and engraving. Whilst in the West Indies he had a large organ, which he took with him and exchanged in Calcutta in 1857 for a large harmonium, which was lost during the Mutiny. This ability enabled him to play in church in Quebec and in 1860 he received a new piano from Berlin in Gibraltar. It wasn't until 1851 that he began etching, at which point he was in London based at a printers to learn that art of printing and engraving. He then bought his own printing press, which he took to India. After leaving finance he soon became involved in local affairs in Fulbeck and in farming. He became a Justice of the Peace in 1875; and was very active in the affairs of the Conservative Association and of the Agricultural Society. His diaries came to abrupt end in 1884, nine years before his death, so little can be said about his remaining years.

The Musician.
Mich Angelo Pinxit. On Stone by F. Sexton.
London, Printed & Published by A. Friedel, Jan.y 1838, at 252, Tottenham Court Road, London.
Lithograph. Printed area 305 x 210mm (12 x 8¼") with very large margins.
A man plays a musical instrument named "rumbling pot" as onlookers gaze at him admiringly. The instrument was very common in the Netherlands from 16th-19th century. Adam Friedel (1780- death date unknown) was a Danish artist, printmaker and publisher who, after serving in the Napoleonic wars, voluntarily joined the Greek army at the start of the Greek War of Independence, fashioning himself as Danish nobility. He was exposed by a real noble who proved his backstory to be a lie. After spending a year in Egypt he took refuge in London in 1824 where he opened a lithographer's shop. Between 1825 and 1826 Friedel printed and published, both in Paris and London, twenty-four lithographs with portraits of politicians and prominent military figures of the Greek War of Independence. He had drawn the portraits himself, in most cases from nature, while J. Bouvier coloured and lithographed these images. The series was a success and he was awarded for his contributions to the Greek Struggle for Independence with two decorations. For health reasons he travelled around a lot. He travelled to Smyrna and taught at a Greek school. He stayed at the Ottoman Capital during the Crimean War and painted several portraits of various politicians. In 1865 he asked for a pension for his services to Greece however little is known about what happened to him after that and his place and date of death is unknown.

Engraving, cut at top. 223 x 319mm (8¾ x 12½").
Alfred Louis Charles de Musset-Pathay (1810-1857), the French dramatist, poet and novelist. The tale of his celebrated love affair with George Sand, which lasted from 1833 to 1835, is told from his point of view in his autobiographical novel, 'La Confession d'un Enfant du Siecle'. He is also believed to be the author of Gamiani, or Two Nights of Excess (1833), a lesbian erotic novel, also believed to be modelled on George Sand. Victor Hugo (1802-1855), the famed French poet, novelist and dramatist of the Romantic movement. Musset's French Romanticism was not appreciated by Hugo, and the feeling was mutual on Musset's part. It is said that Musset's rivalry was seen as the natural revolt of the youngest of the Romantics against the leader of the tribe.

The tale of his celebrated love affair with George Sand, which lasted from 1833 to 1835, is told from his point of view in his autobiographical novel, 'La Confession d'un Enfant du Siecle'. He is also believed to be the author of Gamiani, or Two Nights of Excess (1833), a lesbian erotic novel, also believed to be modelled on George Sand. Victor Hugo (1802-1855), the famed French poet, novelist and dramatist of the Romantic movement. Musset's French Romanticism was not appreciated by Hugo, and the feeling was mutual on Musset's part. It is said that Musset's rivalry was seen as the natural revolt of the youngest of the Romantics against the leader of the tribe.

Mr. Bunbury del. Js.Bretherton f.
Publish'd by Bretherton 3d. January 1774.
Etching, platemark 235 x 300mm (9¼ x 11¾"). Good margins; glued to backing sheet; occasional spotting.
Two rival quack doctors (whose premises, both advertising Antiscorbutic Pills to prevent scurvy, face each other) argue while their wives fight each other. Even their cats and dogs are involved in the rivalry! Etched after Henry Bunbury, an amateur printmaker who subsequently enjoyed a successful career as a designer for printsellers. 'Prints by Bunbury an 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' (Clayton). The dubious claims of both are emphasised by the crest top centre, featuring two ducks and the motto 'quack quack quack'.

Sir Hugh Myddelton (1560-1631), goldsmith and entrepreneur, after Cornelius Jonson or Janssen. Early in the seventeenth century Myddelton became involved in the successful project to bring a supply of water to London, which was still the most important source of piped water into the metropolis two hundred years later. In 1605 an act of parliament was obtained to bring water from springs near Hertford to north London (a distance of nearly forty miles), as surveyed by the mathmatician Edward Wright (1561-1615, famed for his correction of Mercator's Projection). Myddelton's involvement is not recorded until 1609, when he took the lead in the project which was completed in 1613. The establishment of the New River was Myddelton's main claim to fame, and he was involved with the running of the company for the rest of his life, although he was also involved in mining and land draining projects.
