34095showing the Prince of Wales full length in fancy dress costume for a tableau vivant he is wearing Scottish millitary kit with kilt and sporran and a breastplate 6½" x 4¼" London no date circa The practice of the Household performing tableau vivants over the New Year was revived some time after the death of the Prince Consort. There were normally several scenes each representing a letter or word followed by a final scene depicting the entire word. The Tableau often reproduced paintings - a particularly successful one being 'La Rixe' The Brawl after the painting by E. Meissonier which had been given to the Prince Consort in 1856. The scene was a quarrel in a tavern which Queen Victoria considered 'a truthful presentation of the picture'. They were not always so well received - a biblical tableau of Naomi and Ruth in 1888 was described by the Queen as 'not quite so successful as it might have been owing to the ladies getting the giggles and shaking'. The Tableau Vivant photo is an unusual form of photography which Queen Victoria had a passion for from the 1850s. This is one of the later ones which are more difficult to find as the majority of them have remained in Royal Collections. unknown

Wine Office Court Fleet Street 1876. 8vo. iv 90pp plus publisher's advertisement leaves. Illustrated throughout with comic engraved caricatures and satirical scenes by "Whew". Original printed wrappers lightly marked and creased with minor wear to spine and edges; internally sound and clean. A very good copy. A satirical poke here directed toward the future Edward VII. The annuals formed part of the flourishing market for inexpensive illustrated political humour produced around Fleet Street in the 1870s. Attribution remains uncertain with Samuel Beeton and Aglen A. Dowty among the names associated with the series alongside possible contributions from Evelyn Jerrold and other satirical writers. Survival in original pictorial wrappers is uncommon owing to the fragile nature of the publications. . Very Good. Soft cover. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 1876. Weldon and Co, Fleet Street paperback
