[Rubens with his Wife and Child. From the Collection of His Grace the Duke of Marlborough at Blenheim.]
[S.r Peter Paul Rubens pinx.t. J.s M.cArdell fecit.]
[n.d., c.1750.]
Mezzotint, UNRECORDED PLATE, proof before inscription. Sheet 510 x 355mm (20 x 10"). Trimmed within plate. Ink stamp of the Lennox-Boyd Collection on reverse.
An unrecorded plate of McArdell's mezzotint, a very close copy but with some noticeable differences: for example a greater number of bands around Hélène's cuff; Rubens' finger does not extend as out from the hedge; and the caryatid has a different expression. The British Museum has a published example (1902,1011.3379), described as the same as CS 159. A self-portrait of Rubens in an ornamental garden with his second wife Hélène Fourment and their unnamed young son, a parrot in the rosebush behind. The painting, formerly in the collection of Baron Alphonse de Rothschild, is now in the Metropolitan Museum, New York.
See CS 159, i of ii. Goodwin: 121 Variant. Ex: Collection of the Hon. Christopher Lennox-Boyd.

Engraving with hand-colouring, platemark 255 x 145mm (10 x 5¾"). Uncut sheet. Very large margins.
Portrait of Emmanuel Sweert (1552-1612), who in 1612 published his famous 'Florilegium' (to which this portrait is the frontispiece), a superb volume of engravings of flowers. The volume was essentially a sales catalogue, in which the beauty of the engravings served to promote the desirability of the plants. This portrait however, with the flower in Sweert's left hand balanced by the skull on which his right rests, is a reminder of the mixed symbolism of flowers.

Stipple engraving on india. Plate 253 x 171mm. 10 x 6¾". Staining on right.
Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775-1851) in his studio, with several paintings visible including his famous 'Shipwreck' of 1805 (London, Tate Gallery) resting on a chair. In the top left can be seen part of what may be his 'Eruption of the Soufriere Mountains in the Island of St Vincent, 30th April 1812' (University of Liverpool Art Gallery). Contrary to the legend belowthe print, Turner himself had no hand in this print. It was engraved by his namesake Charles Turner after Count Alfred D'Orsay and published in 1852, shortly after Turner's death (see NPG D6997). This is a later republication after the text had been changed. Turner was unarguably one of Britain's most famous and innovative artists. He elevated landscape painting to an eminence rivalling history painter, his work regarded as a Romantic preface to Impressionism.

Etching, platemark 140 x 95mm (5½ x 3¾"). Small margins; on white laid paper; damage to top margin extending inside platemark.
Dramatic portrait of Anthony van Dyck, probably copied from Vorsterman's in the 'Icones Principum Virorum' of c.1630-45. That print itself purported to be after a self-portrait by van Dyck, but the grisaille on which it is based (now kept in the collection of the Duke of Buccleuch, Boughton House) is of uncertain attribution. Lifetime impression of this print.
