Accompanied by a biographical tract giving a brief history of Lady Barkley although the portrait was mislabelled in the eighteenth century: it is in fact a portrait of Elizabeth Dauncey b. 1506 daughter of Sir Thomas More.

1798P4402London: John Chamberlaine c.1798. Very Good. Notes: A pair of rare Stipple Engravings based on the self portrait of the famous Dutch painter Hans Holbein and of his wife during the late 18th century. <br>Hans Holbein the Younger c. 1497 – 1543 was a German and Swiss artist and printmaker who worked in a Northern Renaissance style. He is best known as one of the greatest portraitists of the 16th century. He also produced religious art satire and Reformation propaganda and made a significant contribution to the history of book design. He is called "the Younger" to distinguish him from his father Hans Holbein the Elder an accomplished painter of the Late Gothic school.

Holbein born in 1497 first "arrived in England in the 18th year of the reign of Henry VIII. Sir Thomas More was then Chancellor of the Exchequer and Warham. was Archbishop of Canterbury. Through them Holbein obtained easy access to the leading men of the court" painting portraits of Moore Warham and many others before returning home. He journeyed back to England in 1532 where by 1536 he was in service as "'the king's painter' and in that year he painted the new queen Jane Seymour." In 1539 as a New Year's gift to the king "he gave 'a table of the pictour of the prince's grace' possibly the portrait of the infant Edward VI at Hanover. His portrait of Anne of Cleves perhaps the one now in the Louvre was sufficiently attractive to decide the king in her favour" DNB. The majestic portraiture of Holbein who died in London in 1543 "remains unsurpassed for sureness and economy of statement penetration into character and a combined richness and purity of style" Waterhouse. At the end of the 18th century John Chamberlaine in the court of George III sought to bring together a work to pay tribute to Holbein's magnificent artistry. There had been previous unsuccessful attempts to publish the portraits in engraved reproductions such as a 1792 volume containing 33 plates of poor quality titled The Court of Henry the Eighth.

1792160199London: W. Bulmer and Co. Shakespeare Printing-Office 1792-1800. This magnificent work" - Holbein rendered by Bartolozzi First edition of this superlative folio about which the leading authorities are in full agreement: "in every way a splendid book" Abbey and "this magnificent work is surely the finest early example of English colour printing" Ray. This is a most handsome copy in contemporary red morocco. "During his second stay in England 1532-43 Hans Holbein made a series of drawings of sitters connected with the court of Henry VIII that ranks among his finest achievements. Most of these were discovered as a group pasted into an album in a bureau at Kensington Palace by Queen Caroline in 1728 and the majority are now in the Royal Collection Windsor" Oliver et al p. 168. The album had a chequered history passing through several royal and noble hands - Charles I swapped it for a single painting by Raphael - before finding its way into the celebrated collection of Thomas Howard 14th earl of Arundel who "amassed what stands as the first major British art collection" British Library. It then returned to royal ownership a reunion that was recorded in Alexander Browne's Ars Pictoria 1675: "this book has been long a Wanderer but is now most happily fallen into the King's Collection". It then lay undisturbed until Queen Caroline's discovery. Solicitous of artworks in the royal collections she had them removed from their binding individually framed and hung in her country residence of Richmond Lodge. A native of Florence Francesco Bartolozzi 1728-1815 had by the early 1760s established himself as one of the finest engravers in Italy. An invitation to London in 1764 led to his employment to make prints after drawings by Guercino which entered the Royal Collection. He became engraver to the king and was a founder member of the Royal Academy. His imprimatur on an engraving was in high demand and he established "a vogue for dotted prints or 'stipples' and this became his characteristic manner" ODNB. Extensive work for many of the leading London print-sellers followed for which he employed a large studio to cope with commissions. This led to accusations of shoddy workmanship about which Bartolozzi was very sensitive; and yet he continued to attract high-level commissions such as the present work the admirable presswork for which was by the best London printer of the day William Bulmer. It was published under the auspices of the antiquary John Chamberlaine Keeper of George III's drawings with biographical notices provided by Edmund Lodge. Dr Lucy Peltz Head of Collection Displays Tudor to Regency at the National Portrait Gallery notes a contemporary "patriotic fashion for collecting engraved portraits of illustrious figures" ODNB entry for Edmund Lodge. "Published in parts during the years 1792 to 1800. the book evidently had a very considerable success for the plates appear in several states" Abbey. The present copy includes hand-coloured plates on white paper pink paper and trimmed pink paper mounted to white sheets with a double-border in wash. The sitters include Anne Boleyn Edward VI Sir Thomas Eliot Catherine Howard Sir Thomas More Jane Seymour Henry Howard earl of Surrey and Sir Thomas Wyatt. Folio 543 x 400 mm.
