[n.d., c.1817]
Etching on blue paper. Plate 342 x 197mm. 13½ x 7¾". Scarce, laid on album sheet.
Copy of Hogarth's satire on William Kent's altarpiece at St Clement Danes; a group of five angels playing musical instruments; the dove of the Holy Ghost above, surrounded by seven heads of putti. William Kent's altarpiece was much criticised for Roman Catholic overtones, and was said to include a depiction of Princess Maria Clementina Sobieska, wife of the Old Pretender; in 1725 the Bishop of London ordered it to be removed. Like Hogarth's original print of 1725 it is printed on blue paper but is distinguished by more uniform text below the image (including a modern 's' at the end of the final 'Wings') and other small differences.

Photographs to accompany the papers relating to the Crimean Testimonial, dated August 26, 1862.
Four rare photographs in card booklet with title and list of photos. Largest photograph 230 x 185mm (9 x 7¼"). Some wear.
A full set of photographs issued to soldiers of the Royal Artillery to raise money for the Crimean Memorial Windows in St George's Garrison Church, Woolwich. The photos are the new obelisk dedicated to the fallen of the Crimean War, a sketch of the proposed interior and two sketches of proposed stain glass windows. A contemporary source noted that 'as the expense of supplying photographs to every subscriber would be very considerable, a limited number only has been struck off, which will be sent to Stations, at which subscribers will have the opportunity of seeing them'. St George's Garrison Church was destroyed by a V1 in 1944. Even as a ruin the building was listed in 1973 for its architectural merits, especially its polychromatic Victorian brick, and a canopy roof has been build over the top.
