Martin (John) Paradise Lost: By John Milton, first edition in the original 12 parts, Imperial Quarto issue containing the larger set of mezzotint plates, with the complete set of 24 plates (2 to each part) as issued, platemarks each c. 355 x 255 mm (14 x 10 in), sheets c. 385 x 276 mm (15 1/4 x 10 7/8 in), tissue-guards, some scattered marginal foxing, 2 small puncture marks to both plates of part 11, not affecting image but within platemark, original roan-backed grey-blue wrappers, part 1 sympathetically rebacked, upper wrapper chipped at upper corner, part 3 spine faded with wear to foot, part 11 upper wrapper torn at head with very small loss, some light general soiling or faint spotting to covers, occasional rubbing to spine ends, untrimmed and partially unopened, the 12 parts preserved in a custom drop-back box, folio, Septimus Prowett, 1825-26.⁂ Very rare in the original parts. The mezzotint process entails a considerable application of ink on the page, often resulting in heavy foxing; but the mezzotints in this copy are remarkably clean. Publication took nearly two years, the parts issued as Martin's mezzotints were completed, the order of images not necessarily correlating with the text. The engravings were greeted with outstanding critical acclaim, prompting the release of 4 further editions by the end of 1827. The critic for The Literary Gazette proclaimed: "we know no artist, whose genius so perfectly fitted him being the illustrator of the mighty Milton; and in what we have seen of his conceptions he has more than realised the highest of our hopes. There is a wildness, a grandeur, and a mystery about his designs which are indescribably fine:- the painter is also a poet." [The Literary Gazette, April 2nd 1825].Provenance: Robert H. & Donna L. Jackson (book-label to inside of drop-back box).Literature: Campbell & Wees, 1992, nos. 26-49.

After Samuel Cousins, RA, British 1801-1887- The Surprise, After Claude-Marie-Paul Dubufe; oil on canvas, 35.5 x 30.7 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: The present work is a copy of a mezzotint, taken by Samuel Cousins RA, after French painter Claude-Marie-Paul Dubufe (1790-1864) - see the example held at the British Museum, London [no.2010,7081.4133]. Dubufe’s larger original is held at the National Gallery, London [NG457]. The composition here directly echoes that of the print, which both display compositional differences from Dubufe’s original, notably with the background of a dark maroon and luxurious curtain a departure from the plain wall in the original. Although Dubufe was well known as a portraitist of the French aristocracy, the identity of this woman is unknown. Her state of ‘deshabille’ suggests that this picture was not intended to depict a particular person, but may instead have been based on a model. The woman's pose is based on the Medici Venus, the marble sculpture of the goddess of love made in Greece in the 1st century BC. While the sculpted Venus is nude, this woman wears a thin white blouse and brown shawl.Please refer to department for condition report

After Sir Godfrey Kneller, Bt, British 1646-1723- Portrait of Joseph Addison (1672-1719); oil on canvas, 91.5 x 71 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: The original Kit-Kat club portrait on canvas by Kneller, dating to c.1712, is housed in the National Portrait Gallery, London [NPG 3193]. The present work is in reverse, and was presumably taken after a printed copy of Kneller's portrait - see, for example, the mezzotint of Addison by John Simon (c.1675-1751), after Kneller, at the British Museum, London [1886,0609.15]. Addison was an essayist and joint founder, with Richard Steele, of 'The Spectator'. He was also a member of the Kitcat Club, the early 18th-century London club with strong political and literary associations. Held in an English 18th-century carved, gilded and pierced frame.
