Six plates from a very scarce album of lithographs of Newmarket which, according to the frontispiece, includes portraits of the 'most celebrated running horses in 1809', some descended from the Godolphin arabian.

Antoine Dubost (1769-1825) was a neoclassical painter with a penchant for racing, owning and riding horses in a number of important races. Having served in the Corps du Genie (enginneers) he came to England in 1806, attracted by the racing at Newmarket, painting the originals of these plates in 1809, before returning to France in 1813. He fought a duel with a neighbour over a pavilion in which both participants were killed.

Rare lithograph on india. 160 x 220mm (6¼ x 8¾").
A very atmospheric view of Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire. When Byron inherited the estate it had been greatly run-down (on purpose) by Byron's great-uncle, William Byron, 5th Baron Byron, meaning the cost of maintaining it was a constant millstone to the poet. In debt, Byron first attempted to sell Newstead in 1812 but, after several false starts, it was only in 1818 that Wildman bought it. The Abbey is now owned by Nottingham City Council and houses a museum containing Byron memorabilia. In the garden is the memorial to Boatswain, Byron's beloved Newfoundland dog, who died of rabies in 1808, inspiring 'Epitaph to a Dog'

[Newton Abbey] At Newton - Trim. Co. Meath.
9th October 1864.
Ink and watercolour. Sheet 255 x 465mm (10 x 18¼"), laid on the original card. Backing card soiled.
The ruins of Newton Abbey, a 13th century Augustinian monastery. Suppressed in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1537, it is now an Irish National Monument. In the foreground is "the Tomb of the Jealous Man and Woman", that of Lucas and Jane Dillon. Sir Lucas Dillon (1530-92, judge of the trial of Nicholas Nugent, hanged for treason in 1582) and his wife are separated by a sword of state, which may suggest some estrangement between the couple.

An allegorical monument to famed mathematician, astronomer, theologian and physicist Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1726), with a decorative border showing scientific aparatus. From Eugene Mac-Swiny's 'Tombeaux des Princes, Grand Capitaines et Autres Hommes Illustres, Qui ont fleuri dans la Grande-Bretagne'. Owen McSwiny, former manager of Drury Lane and the Haymarket Theatres, had travelled to Italy where he bought works of Italian painters, including Canaletto, to sell to English collectors. He also planned a series of historical pictures to decorate the Duke of Richmond's apartment at Goodwood, commemorating the deeds of famous Englishmen.

Monument Erected to the Memory of Sir Isaac Newton in Westminster Abbey.

Trimmed to plate, glued on album sheet at edges.
Obelisk shaped monument with relief sculpture, Newton reclining on top of a casket or sarcophagus decorated with frieze; he gestures towards a scroll held by two cherubs to right, a female figure relining on a globe above at top. Sir Isaac Newton FRS (1643 - 1727) was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, alchemist, and theologian who is perceived and considered by a substantial number of scholars and the general public as one of the most influential men in history. His 1687 publication of the Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica is considered to be among the most influential books in the history of science, laying the groundwork for most of classical mechanics. In this work, Newton described universal gravitation and the three laws of motion which dominated the scientific view of the physical universe for the next three centuries. Newton showed that the motions of objects on Earth and of celestial bodies are governed by the same set of natural laws by demonstrating the consistency between Kepler's laws of planetary motion and his theory of gravitation, thus removing the last doubts about heliocentrism and advancing the scientific revolution. In mechanics, Newton enunciated the conservation principles of momentum and angular momentum. In optics, he built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into the many colours that form the visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of cooling and studied the speed of sound. In mathematics, Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of the differential and integral calculus. He also demonstrated the generalised binomial theorem, developed the so-called "Newton's method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, and contributed to the study of power series. From Bowyer's edition of David Hume's 'History of England'.
