Engraving, sheet 310 x 230mm (12¼ x 9"). Crease lower left. Slight marking at top.
Clara Novello (1818-1908), singer and daughter of the music publisher Vincent Novello.

Following her marriage to Count Giovanni Baptista Gigliucci in 1843 Novello put her career on hold to raise a family and assist her husband in the fight for Italian independence. However, when Count Gigliucci lost his property in the 1848 uprisings, Novello returned to the stage, performing both in the UK and on the continent. Novello retired, while still popular, in 1860, to live with Count Gigliucci in Rome and Fermo.

Three-quarter length portrait of George Nugent-Temple-Grenville (1753-1813), 1st Marquess of Buckingham. As Lord Lieutenant of Ireland under Pitt, he was denounced by Grattan for extravagance and was censured by the Irish Houses of Parliament for refusing to transmit to England an address calling upon the Prince of Wales to assume the regency. He maintained his position by bribery for a time but resigned his office in September 1789. The engraver, John Keyes Sherwin (1751-1790), was a painter and engraver who succeeded Woollett as engraver to the king in 1785. Despite an income of more that £12,000 a year he died in penury in 1790 because, as the Encyclopedia Britannia describes him, he was "shiftless, indolent, and without method" and a reckless gambler. However the Encyclopedia also states that his portraits of Buckingham and Pitt (both after Gainsborough) "occupy a high place among the productions of the English school of line-engravers".

[Nuremberg flood of 1784] Der durch Nürnberg, fliesende Pegniz Flus, wie selbiger im Jahr 1784. von 27. bis 28. Februar...
Nach der Natur gezeschen et und gestochen von J.L. Stahl Norb. 1784.
Zu finden beÿ E.C. Grattenaur in Nürnberg [n.d., c.1784].
Rare etching. Sheet 265 x 465mm (10 ½ x 18¼"). Trimmed to plate, creased, with some wear.
In Feburary 1784 the Pegnitz River flooded the city of Nuremberg, sweeping away houses. It was caused by the eruption of the Iclandic volcano Laki, not only spewing out basalt lava but also belching clouds of hydrofluoric acid and sulfur dioxide compounds into the air. The resulting clouds caused a mini ice-age, causing heavy snow falls and hail large enough to kill cattle in Europe and the Mississippi to freeze at New Orleans. The thaw of the extra snow in the spring caused floods throughout Europe. This view of the devastation was drawn by the engraver Johann Ludwig Stahl (1759-1818) who witnessed the catastrophe.
