To Lady Jervis This Print of The Cowthorpe Oak is Most Respectfully dedicated by her Ladyships most obliged Servant Charles Empson.
Painted by Geo. W. Fothergill. Drawn on Stone by W. Monkhouse, York.
[London: Ackermann & Co., 1842.]
Rare & scarce tinted lithograph, heightened in white. Sheet 340 x 400mm (13¼ x 15¾"). Small stain in sky.
A famous oak tree at Cowthorpe, near Wetherby, Yorkshire, said to predate the Norman Conquest. By the 19th century many of its branches had to be propped, but it lasted until 1950, when it fell and died, apparently after being hit by lightning. Dugdale wrote in his 'Antiquities of England': 'At this village may be seen the famous oak, exceeding in size even the Greendale oak at Welbeck in Nottinghamshire. The principal branch was rent off in 1718 in a storm, and being accurately measured was found to contain upwards of five tons of timber. Its present circumference at the ground is 60 feet, its principal limb extends 45 feet from the trunk, and its shadow is said to cover half an acre'.

Parkhurst was originally a military hospital and children's asylum but by 1838 it had become a prison for children. George Hall, the prison governor to whom this print is dedicated, had been Private Secretary to the Governor of South Australia George Gawler, before returning to England. An early advocate of rehabilitation of young offenders, he started the 'Parkhurst Apprentices', a scheme to send his charges to the colonies to learn a trade. Between 1842 and 1852 nearly 1500 boys aged from twelve to eighteen were transported to Australia and New Zealand from Parkhurst Prison. Reputedly hung at Governor's Office, Parkhurst Prison, until 1995.
