[Temple of the Dioscuri] Avanzi del Tempio di Giove Statore nel Foro Romano.
Rossini dis. e inc.
Roma 1821.
Etching. 460 x 390mm (18 x 15¼"), with large margins, uncut.
Rather than being the Temple of Jove, these are the remains of the Temple of the Dioscuri (Castor and Pollux) in the Roman Forum. First built in 494BC, it was restored many times, so these columns date from the temple, dedicated by Tiberias in 6AD. The Dioscuri were the patrons of the Knights who every year held an impressive parade outside the temple. Under the columns is a little scene of riders driving bulls through the forum, drawn by Bartolomeo Pinelli to add life to Rossini's architecture.

M.A.T.W. [Mary Anne Theresa Whitby] Newlands Press [c.1828]
Lithograph, very rare with large margins; printed area 95 x 140mm (3¾ x 5¾").
Carriage for transporting a sculpture of St. Effisius, a Greek warrior who became a Christian and celebrated in Cagliari, Sardinia on May 1. In 1828 William Henry Smyth published his 'Sketch of the present state of the island of Sardinia' in which he wrote of the procession celebrating St Effisius: 'The gorgeous carriage then slowly advances; it consists principally of fine plate-glass, and containing the image of the Saint surrounded with lighted candles [...] I remarked to an acquaintance, that everybody appeared to be much attached to St. Effisius; "Ah!", said he, "it is with great reason; he saved our city from a dreadful plague,- he gave us rain when every other part of the island suffered from drought,- and he frustrated the designs of the French in 1793.' 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).

Aquatint and etching in sepia, image 325 x 490mm. 12¾ x 19¼". Trimmed to image at top. Tatty extremities.
The Temple of Hera, built around 550 BC by Greek colonists, is the oldest surviving temple in Paestum. Paestum is the classical Roman name of a major Graeco-Roman city in the Campania region of southern Italy. Plate 12 to Chapter 6 of William Wilkins's (1778 - 1839) 'The Antiquities of Magna Graecia', Cambridge, 1807. Magna Graecia (Latin for "Greater Greece") is the name of the area in Southern Italy and Sicily that was colonised by Greek settlers in the eighth century BCE. Wilkins was an architect and one of the leading figures in the English Greek Revival of the early 1800s. On his tour of the classical antiquities of the Mediterranean he was accompanied by the Italian landscape painter Agostino Aglio, who had been commissioned by Wilkins as draughtsman on the expedition. Aglio supplied the drawings for the monument illustrations in Wilkins' folio volume. In 1837 Wilkins became Professor of Architecture at the Royal Academy in succession to Sir John Soane.

Tunny Fishery with Cape Passero. Straits of Messina
M.A.T.W. [Mary Anne Theresa Whitby] 1822. Litho. Newlands 1830
Rare lithograph. Printed area 150 x 180mm (6 x 7"), with wide margins. Foxing.
Tuna fishing in the Strait of Messina, which separates mainland Italy from Sicily. 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).
