Aquatint. Sheet 240 x 155mm (9½ x 6"). Trimmed slightly into plate.
Portrait of François-Adrien Boieldieu (1775 - 1834), French composer, mainly of operas, often called "the French Mozart". In 1825, he produced his operatic masterpiece, La dame blanche (revived in the Salle Favart in 1997 and recorded by the conductor Marc Minkowski). Unusual for the time, La dame blanche was based on episodes from two novels by Walter Scott. The libretto by Eugène Scribe is built around the theme of the long-lost child fortunately recognized at a moment of peril. The style of the opera influenced Lucia di Lammermoor, I puritani, and La jolie fille de Perth. La dame blanche was one of the early attempts to introduce the fantastic into opera.

Etching, sheet 155 x 125mm (6 x 5"). Trimmed; glued to backing sheet, slight foxing
Henry St John, styled first Viscount Bolingbroke (1678-1851), politician, diplomatist and author. St John first entered parliament in 1701 and was appointed secretary at war in 1704 before resigning in 1708. He was subsequently secretary of state (1710-14) and aligned himself with the Jacobite cause to secure power for himself and the tories (spending several years in exile in France from 1716-23 as a result). Pardoned in 1723 Bolingbroke returned to England and tried to rally tory opposition in parliament, but was mostly active as a writer in later years. Portrait by Jonathan Richardson published as frontispiece to a volume of Bolingbroke's works in 1753 which attracted little critical attention.
