In 1815, Bedlam was moved to St George's Fields, Southwark, into buildings designed by Sydney Smirke now used to house the Imperial War Museum.

Engraving, sheet 450 x 315mm (17¾ x 12½"). Crease through centre.
Plate from 'Relation du voyage à la recherche de La Pérouse', compiled by Jacques Julien Houtou de Labillardière. Labillardière was the botanist on board an expedition led by Chevalier Bruni d'Entrecasteaux which in 1791-3 attempted to find Jean-Francois de Galaup, comte de La Pérouse, who disappeared in 1788 after setting sail from Botany Bay (Australia). Despite finding no trace of La Pérouse, losing its commander and many crew to scurvy, and finally splitting between royalist and republican factions, the expedition was judged a success because of the important observations made by the expedition's scientists (and sketches by the expedition's artist Jean Piron) which were published in this book.

Beautemps-Beaupré was in fact named after the hydropgrapher and explorer Charles-François Beautemps-Beaupré (1766-1854), who was also part of the expedition.

Plan, Section and Elevations of Fleet Market.
G. Dance delin. W.H. Toms sculp.
Published April the 25th 1737 by George Dance pursuant to a late Act of Parliament.
Rare engraved architect's plan, watermarked laid paper, sheet 400 x 620mm. 15¾ x 24½". Centrefold as normal. Trimmed to plate, new margin added. A little soiled and stained.
Key below title; plan includes a scale. The Fleet Market was constructed above the course of the enclosed Fleet Ditch in the City of London. The architect was George Dance the Elder (1695 - 1768). Work began in 1734 to arch over the River Fleet, as it had become an open sewer; and to remove the considerable expense of clearing the river of rubbish and filth. The course of the river was covered between Holborn Bridge and Fleet Bridge. The market, consisting of two rows of open one-storey shops linked by a covered walkway, opened on 30 September 1737. The market replaced the Old Stocks Market that itself had been cleared for the construction of the Mansion House. By 1829, the market was rundown and considered an obstacle to the increasing volume of traffic; and was cleared for the construction of Farringdon Road. Farringdon Market [New Fleet Market] was constructed to replace it, but was never successful.

Photogravure, artist's proof signed by the artist, limited to 275. Sheet 380 x 695mm (15 x 27½"). Printsellers' Association blind stamp. Trimmed within plate.
Riders rounding up some of the New Forest ponies. Lucy Kemp-Welch (1869-1958) exhibited the original painting (approximately 5ft x 10ft) at the Royal Academy in 1897, when she was only 26 years old. It caused a sensation and was promptly sold for £525 to the trustees of the Chantrey Bequest, a fund set up to buy British art to create a national collection. Despite being set up in 1875 this was only the third artwork by a woman bought by them. The painting was then transferred to the Tate Gallery when it opened that year, but was never displayed: it is said her support for the suffragette movement meant her work was blacklisted by the patriarchal establishment.
