Mezzotint, scarce, 265 x 220mm (10½ x 8½"). Cut to image.
A man sits disconsolately at a table, absent-mindedly toying with his snuffbox, with a friend looking at him across the table and a standing figure holding a straw-covered wine bottle. Engraved by Dutch mezzotinter Jan van Somer (c.1645-99) after Gerard Ter Borch's 'Scene at an Inn' (c. 1648/50, private collection). Unusually, Van Somer also made another print of the same scene, but in reverse. It has been said of the painting from which this print derives that 'no painting in Ter Borch's oeuvre conveys with such overwhelming power the emotion of loneliness and despair'. The model for the seated figure on the right was a member of the Spanish delegation to Munster for the signing of the 1648 treaty which made the United Netherlands independent from Spain. The same sitter appears in Ter Borch's famous painting of the ratification of that treaty. Hollstein: 62; for the painting see 'Gerard ter Borch' (NGA, Washington, 2005, cat.15).

A very rare and scarce engraving. Sheet 406 x 247mm. 16 x 9¾". Laid on separate sheet.
It was in 1839 that Mr. Richard Granger (1797-1861) the builder from Newcastle upon Tyne, known for taking on the task of building and developing Grainger Town, decided to buy the Elswick estate to the west of Newcastle with the intention of building a railway terminus. These plans never went ahead, as Grainger bankrupted himself in purchasing the land, and following his death, his debts were greater than his personal estate, so the sale of the land in the Elswick estate helped pay off these debts. Thomas Sopwith (1803-1879), also from Newcastle, was a miner and railway surveyor, writing his best-known book "Treatise on Isometrical Drawing".

Sculpture of Terpsychore, the muse of dance and choral singing, holding a lyre. The Greek inscription on the colomn reads 'Terpsychore Lyran'.

Sommariva, who was bessotted with the statue, referred to the sculpture as '[his] bride' and placed at the foot of his bed in his Parisian house. From the Berkeley Collection, Spetchley Park.

A Geddes ft [upper centre of image]
Etching with very large margins, platemark 140 x 175mm (5½ x 7").
Portraits of the actor Daniel Terry and his artist wife Elizabeth, seated in a dark room. Etched by the Scottish painter and etcher Andrew Geddes (1783-1844). The Oxford DNB states that 'as an etcher Geddes ranks higher than as a painter; his plates may be regarded as among the very earliest examples in modern British art of the brilliancy, concentration, and spirited selection of line proper to a ‘painter's-etching''. This plate was one of ten he published himself in 1826. CD 16.iii; Ex: collection of the Late Hon. C. Lennox-Boyd.
