Satires & Caricatures

1. Life and Death contrasted_or, An Essay on Woman.

Copper engraving with hand colouring after Robert Dighton Printed for & Sold by Bowles & Carver, No. 69 in St. Paul’s Church Yard. London. Published as the Act directs, 25 March, 1796.

Image 321x 241 mm, Plate 350 x 249 mm, Sheet 367 x 266 mm. framed In Dighton’s image, an invisible line bisects the realms of life and death. To the left, the woman is extravagantly dressed, and holds a fan in her gloved hand. An assortment of objects feature beside the hemline of her outfit. These include a strewn deck of playing cards, an invitation to a masked ball, and a book devoted to Romantic novels. To the right, the skeletal half of the composition holds a downwardly-pointed arrow. A large, pyramidal shaped tomb bears the words of Shakespeare and James Hervey, as well as passages from the Bible. The work functions as a candid allegory of mortality.

This print is taken from a watercolour drawing that Richard Dighton prepared for Bowles and Carver. A companion exists, and is titled: Life and Death contrasted - or, an essay on Man. BM Satires 3793, a pair to BM Satires 3792, Bowles/Bowles & Carver Posture Mezzotints 518.

18. Cor Iesu Amanti Sacrum Copper engraving Charels de Mallery after Antonius Wierix c. 1627-35 Each image 89 x 54 mm, each plate 90 x 56 mm, each sheet 92 x 61 mm. unmounted Complete set of 18 emblems from Cor Iesu Amanti Sacrum.

Towards the end of the sixteenth century or the beginning of the seventeenth cenrury, Antonius II Wierix (1555/9 - 1604) produced the first series on the ‘Devout Heart’. From the 1620s through to the nineteenth century, various artists reproduced Wierix’s series; whether that be directly copying the designs or drawing upon Wierix’s format.

The first, and perhaps most famous, reproduction of Wierix’s emblems was Luzvic’s Le Coeur Devot, published in Paris in 1627.

This particualr set, produced by Flemish engraver and designer Charles de Mallery (1571 - 1635), must therefore be dated after 1627, and with Mallery dying around 1635, it can be suggested that this set of emblems falls somewhere between the two dates.

Cor Iesu images were printed in two forms; as part of a book, or as loose sheets to be used as devotional imagery. It is unclear what form de Mallery’s took.

Charles de Mallery’s emblems were reprinted, with some slight alterations, in Levendige herts-theologie (1686), a spiritual emblem book written by the controversial German Protestant theologian and mystical spiritualist, Christian Hohburg (1607 - 1675), and published by Johannes Boekholt (1656 - 1693).

The series was a reaction to the Siege of Namur, 1695. Often recognsied as the most important event of the Nine Year’s War, the Siege of Namur saw the Allied Forces regaining control of Namur after it had been lost to the French during the first siege of 1692.

Facing to the right, a standing male figure is about to light a firework. Several other fireworks are found tied to his belt, and a a small flag sitcks out from his hat.

Unmounted George Stephenson (1781-1848), the inventor and founder of railways, was a practical engineer without formal education who became interested in developing more efficient rails and locomotives. In 1814, he tested his first 'steam-blast' locomotive which drew thirty tonnes of coal at four miles an hour. After his pioneering work on the Stockton and Darlington Railway (1825), he won the contract for the Manchester and Liverpool Line in 1826. The success of both lines was increased by the newly designed Rocket (1829), an engine which travelled at 29 miles per hour. The building of these two lines prompted immense business speculation and an expansion of the railway system which transformed the British countryside and economy.
