Ap. Antonio Zatta e Figli. G.Z.s. [Venice c.1780.].
Engraving, very scarce. Sheet 335 x 400mm, 13¼ x 15¾". Trimmed within plate, some creasing and wear; small tear at top.
A scene from the life of Francis II Rákóczi (1676-1735), leader of the Hungarian uprising against the Austrian Habsburgs, 1703-11). Brought up under Austrian supervision, he was arrested when secret dealings with the French were uncovered in 1700. Sent to the fortress of Wiener Neustadt, it was expected that his trial would end with his death, but, with the aid of his wife, he managed to escape (whether in women's clothes, as shown here, or not, is unclear), fleeing to Poland. When the War of the Spanish Succession broke out in 1704 the Hungarian rebellion began, but it floundered when the Battle of Blenheim made french support evaporate. In 1711 he again went into exile, settling in Turkey. He remains a hero in Hungary. Antonio Zatta & Son, important publishers in Venice, have given the scene a very contemporary look, perhaps reflecting their current problems with the Austrians.

Ralegh was also 'a soldier in Ireland; a sailor [...] celebrant of colonialism (in his 'Discoverie of the Large, Rich and Bewtiful Empire of Guiana' of 1596); a poet; a dancer; a royal favourite who brilliantly mastered the Elizabethan court rhetoric of chaste love only to plummet into disfavour after a marriage the Queen didn't like; an enthusiastic brawler who laughed throughout the Earl of Essex's execution; and atheist; and an associate of what Nicholas Popper calls "poet-ruffians". He was also [...] a prisoner, condemned to the Tower of London for his part in a plot to promote Arabella Stuart to the throne.' (Adam Smyth, 'Wrong Rivers' in TLS June 14 2013).

Sir Walter Rawleigh. Rawleigh, alike eminent in the field, and in the closet, presents a life the most fertile of incidents, of all our illustrious men. He was descended from an ancient family in Devonshire; and, while at Oxford, displayed uncommon talents, and a passion for academical studies; but the activity of his temper led him to more enterprizing schemes of life...This illustrious man was, at once, a scholar, a statesman, a navigator, and a soldier. We know not in which to admire him most-such was the felicity and rarity of his genius!
