[Samuel Whitbread.]
[Engraved by S.W. Reynolds after James Northcote.]
[n.d., c.1815.]
Mezzotint, proof before letters. 630 x 355mm (24¾ x 14"). Framed. Lettered in pencil. Trimmed to plate, laid on album paper. Mounted over paper edge.
Full length portrait of Samuel Whitbread (1756-1815), politician and brewer, shown with a bust of Fox, the Bill of Rights and a Magna Charta scroll. Whitbread was a friend and early patron of the engraver, Samuel William Reynolds. This mezzotint comes from an album belonging to the Northcote family and is the only example we can trace. Probably the plate was never published, shelved by the family after Whitbread's messy suicide. A lithographed version by Samuel Cecil was published by Ackermann in 1831. The painting hangs in Bedford Magistrates' Court.
Not in CS or Whitman. Ex: Collection of The Hon. C. Lennox-Boyd.

[Probably by Mary Anne Theresa Whitby, c.1820s]
Rare lithograph. 95 x 135mm (3¾ x 5¼).
Scene, probably inspired by travels in Sardinia by Mary Anne Theresa Whitby (1784-1850). The printmaker, Mary Anne Theresa Whitby (1784-1850), was married to Captain John Whitby, flag captain for Admiral Sir William Cornwallis. They lived on the admiral's estate, Newlands: after John's death in 1806, Mary stayed on, spending much of her time with Cornwallis, who left his estate to her on his death in 1819. Being a keen amateur lithographer, Whitby established a private press at Newlands, but she is better remembered for the first successful sericulture (silk production) to England after three centuries of attempts, presenting twenty yards of damask to Queen Victoria in 1844. She performed genetic experiments on her silkworms for Charles Darwin, who published her results in his 'The Variation of Animals and Plants Under Domestication' (1868).

Three men stand in discussion by the fireplace of White's Club, although all are dressed for outside, with top hats. One says ''Of course vested Interest's will be respected, to which another replies ''How! no such thing as vesated Interests in our days''. Another man, seated reading a newspaper, eavesdrops and says ''That is one of S-ft-n's perculiar hits! agad! I'll send it as a hint to HB''. According to McLean's 'Illustrative Key to the Political Sketches of H.B.' (1841): The subject of this conversation appears to be the Reform Bill, then the prominent topic of the day. The dress and figure of the Speaker, who observes that ''vested interests will of course be respected,'' sufficiently prove him, although his face is not seen, to be Sir Francis Burdett; the respondent is the late Earl of Sefton, a nobleman equally eminent for the good things which he said, and for those which he devoured. Though not conspicuous in Parliament, he was a very distinguished and influential member of the Whig party, of which it was sometimes alleged, by their opponents, that Lord Sefton's head contained more sense than the heads of all the rest of the party put together. This species of supremacy, some of his party might not be disposed to allow him; but his taste and judgment in gastronomy were universally admitted. The other figures in the sketch are not portraits.
