Rendlesham.
T. H. Maguire. 1850.
[M. & N. Hanhart.]
Lithograph, printed on india. Printed area: 340 x 240mm (13½ x 9½").
A seated portrait of politician Frederick Thellusson, 4th Baron Rendlesham (1798-1852), Conservative MP for Suffolk East from 1843 until his death. He was the grandson of Peter Thellusson (1737-97) whose odd will, in which his estate was allowed to accumulate over the lives of the next three generations of his family, led to law regulating such wills. In 1856 a lawsuit about who were the actual heirs, which eventually reached the House of Lords, inspired the case of 'Jarndyce and Jarndyce' in Charles Dickens' novel Bleak House.

[London, Published May 17th 1889 by E.E.Leggatt, 62 Cheapside, E.C.]
Rare etching. 285 x 355mm (11¼ x 14"). Various repaired tears not in the cricket image.
The central image of two terriers either side of a guinea pig's hutch is surrounded by nine vignette scenes. One of these is a cricket match, a scoreboard inscribed with the scores of the opening batsmen: 302 and 189 runs for numbers 1 and 2 respectively. Frank Paton (1856 - 1909) was a successful artist during his lifetime and could even count Queen Victoria as an admirer of his work. He is perhaps most widely known for his series of etched Christmas cards published annually by Edward Ernest Leggatt from 1880 until Paton's death in 1909. They were intended to be a cut above the average Christmas card and sold for half a guinea each. Their format became quite formulaic over the years. A central subject reflecting the title of the print was usually complemented by a series of often humorous sketches around its border. A number of the prints would be sent from the printers to be signed in pencil by Paton, as here. A cricketing item.

Modern Marriage A La Mode. Sweet Fruits of the third Honey Moon. !!
[Isaac Cruikshank].
Pub by SW Fores 50 Piccadilly May 6 1800. Folios of Caricatures Lent.
Etching with hand colour 320 x 415mm (12½ x 16¼"), with small margins. Hinged inside mount at top. A crease down the middle where previously folded.
A satire on the third marriage of the irish peer and politician John Hamilton, 1st Marquess of Abercorn (1756 –1818) , on 3rd April 1800, to Lady Anne Jane Gorn (Hatton)(1763–1827). A horned Abercorn puts the ring on the finger of Anne who turns aside to point up at a high alcove, serving as an altar, in which are the torso of a grinning satyr and two goats. A woman in a veiled shroud stands behind her presumably the ghost of the first wife of Abercorn, Catherine Copley who died 13th September 1791. Behind Abercorn stand three crying women who are most likely his daughters from his first marriage: Harriet, Maria and Catherine Hamilton.
