Henricus Sacheverell S.T.P.
A. Russell pinx: Geo: Vertue Sculp: 1714.
Fine engraving. 375 x 267mm (14¾ x 10½"). Trimmed close the plate along lower edge.
Henry Sacheverell (1674-1724) was an English High Church clergyman and politician. He came to fame when preacher at St Saviour's, Southwark. His famous sermons on the church in danger from the neglect of the Whig ministry to keep guard over its interests were preached, the one at Derby on 15 August 1709, the other at St Paul's Cathedral on 5 November 1709. They were immediately reprinted, the latter being dedicated to the lord mayor and the former to the author's kinsman, George Sacheverell who was high sheriff of Derbyshire that year, and, as the passions of the whole British population were at this period keenly exercised between the rival factions of Whig and Tory; Sacheverell's arguments on behalf of the church which supplied the Tories with most of their support made him their idol.

Fishing scene, inspired by the idea of a London Angling Society outing to the River Lea, the Sussex Ouse or the Thames, and the fishing of a friendly competition amongst the members. Sadler's painting of 1884 (now in the Beaverbrook Gallery in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada) has been described as his greatest angling scene, which 'shows contemporary fishing in a thoroughly naturalistic and unsentimental way'.

An ode to sartorial variety at the pleasure gardens at Sadler's Wells (sometimes called 'New Tunbridge Wells') in Islington, London.

By George Bickham the Younger (c. 1706 - 1771), printmaker and publisher, and son of George Bickham the Elder. From a book of sheet music. Plate inscribed '42' upper right.
