18016589London: Published by John Raphael Smith 1801. Mezzotint with roulette coloured by hand. Image size: 17 1/4 x 21 1/2 inches. A touching scene after Morland: 'a master of genre and animal painting an artist worthy to be placed in the same rank as the best of those Dutch masters whom he studied as a boy' DNB<br/> <br/>This print is a wonderful example of the manner in which Morland perfectly conveys the hardships and beauties of country life his depiction of a poor country family battling the hardships of winter shows the bitter side of the pastoral life with grace and sympathy. George Morland was one of the most successful genre painters of his time creating during his industrious career some of England's most cherished paintings. At an early age Morland displayed his artistic genius he learned to paint at three and exhibited his first work at the Royal Academy at the mere age of ten. Morland was a prodigious painter producing more than 4000 paintings during the entirety of his career and sometimes painting two or three works in a day. His beautiful idealistic scenes were a favorite source of inspiration for contemporary engravers and as many as 250 separate engravings were done of his paintings during his lifetime. One such engraver was John Raphael Smith who throughout his career translated many of Morland's paintings to print. Smith was a highly influential figure in the late eighteenth-century British art world he quickly became an impresario of the print-publishing trade producing nearly 400 prints during his lifetime 130 of which were of his own design. This beautiful print refelects both the talents of the engraver and the genius of the artist in its sentiment and execution it demonstrates the best of English genre.

20142266899Schiffer Publishing Ltd 2014. First Edition. Large Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. First edition. Tiny nick on front edge minimal wear to corners. 2014 Large Hardcover. 128 pp. "These paper cut-outs developed from toys into a historically important reflection on the German military and social classes from the early nineteenth to the early twentieth century culminating in their proliferation during the rise and reign of the Third Reich. They make it possible to take a tour through German military and political history from the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt in 1806 right up to the Maginot Line in 1940. These German paper soldiers or papiersoldaten zum ausschneiden are without a doubt unique visual images that nowadays are similar to archeological artifacts which are very hard to find on the market. Even today the number of preserved or catalogued images in German museums is very small so this book showing thousands of figures in 173 color images is a an essential collection.
