Book: D/W. Quarto. pp. 240. Illustrated colour wrappers. Profusely illustrated in both colour and monochrome throughout.
Although George Stubbs is best known for his images of hounds and horses charging round the British countryside, the painter was also an avid student of the broader animal world. This volume features gorgeous colour reproductions of paintings that highlight the painter's genius for combining realism and lyricism. It includes numerous drawings and prints - among them the exceptional studies for his 'The Anatomy of the Horse' series. Informative essays discuss Stubbs' superb aesthetic sensibility, his far-reaching scientific studies, and his place in the pantheon of eighteenth-century European painters.

A drawing lesson. Etching by Francesco Bartolozzi (1725-1815), Florentine engraver and founding member of the Royal Academy in 1768.

In England he became the most celebrated exponent of the 'stipple' technique whereby he produced prints using dots rather than lines. This is the medium employed here, one of many prints he made from designs by his fellow Italian, G.B. Cipriani (it was published in 'A Set of Etchings by Francis Bartolozzi R.A. in Imitation of Drawings from the Sketches of the Late John Baptist Cipriani R.A.' in 1788.

Rare lithograph, printed on chine collé. Printed area 370 x 265mm (14½ x 10½") very large margins. Slight crease above head to left.
Joseph Sturge (1793-1859), Quaker and founder of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, now Anti-Slavery International. He spent his life engaged in Radical political actions supporting pacifism, working class rights, and the universal emancipation of slaves. In Jamaica, Joseph Sturge helped to found Free Villages with the Baptists, one of which was named Sturge Town in his memory. The dedication is to Howe Browne (1788-1845), 2nd Marquess of Sligo. Although he campaigned for abolition he inherited two slave-holding plantations from his grandmother. When he was appointed Governor and Vice-Admiral of Jamaica in 1834, only a year after the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833, his attempts to transition to a free society put him at odds with the Jamaican Assembly, who forced him to resign the governorship.

Joseph Sturge (1793-1859), Quaker and founder of the British and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, now Anti-Slavery International. He spent his life engaged in Radical political actions supporting pacifism, working class rights, and the universal emancipation of slaves. In Jamaica, Joseph Sturge helped to found Free Villages with the Baptists, one of which was named Sturge Town in his memory. The dedication is to Howe Browne (1788-1845), 2nd Marquess of Sligo. Although he campaigned for abolition he inherited two slave-holding plantations from his grandmother. When he was appointed Governor and Vice-Admiral of Jamaica in 1834, only a year after the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833, his attempts to transition to a free society put him at odds with the Jamaican Assembly, who forced him to resign the governorship.
