1790200098AG1790. London John Deeley c.1790. Original hand-coloured engraving. Plate Size: 61 cm x 46.5 cm. Frame Size: 77 cm x 63 cm. In very good- condition. Minor abrasion with slight tear to upper part of engraving. A wonderful scene by John Nost Sartorius illustrating a late 18th century British fox hunt in rich clear engravings by J. Neagle and J. Peltro. Plate IV shows the bad/good culmination of the hunt one's opinion depending on whose side one takes - the hunters or the hunted as the team of riders and excited hounds have captured the fox. The differing expressions on the riders' faces are fascinating. The accompanying lines of verse from William Somerville's 'The Chase' 1735 read as follows: "A chosen few / Alone the sport enjoy nor droop beneath / Their pleasing toils. The unerring hounds / With peals of echoing vengeance close pursue. / Listen! now they are at him again. Now Reynard / Look to yourself. It is just up with him. / What a crash they make; the whole wood resounds. / That turn was very short. There now; / Aye; now they have him. Who-hoop. Further inscription reads: 'To Charles Boldero Esqr of Aspeden Hall Herts. This Print is dedicated by his much obliged and obedient Servant John Harris.' John Nost Sartorius 17551828 was an English painter of horses horse-racing and hunting scenes. He is considered the best-known and prolific of the Sartorius family of artists. Wikipedia unknown

The lines of verse from William Somerville's 'The Chase' 1735 read as follows: "Here Huntsman from the height / Observe you Birds of prey; if I can judge / 'Tis there the villain lurks; they hover round / And claim him as their own. / Was I not right / See! there he creeps along: Ha! yet he flies / Nor yields to black despair but one loose more / And all his wiles are vain."

A highly decorative sea chart of the English Channel by the master-engraver Renard.<br/> <br/> The marine atlases of 17th and 18th century Holland were best sellers.

17935139London: J. Debrett 1793. Second edition. A nice copy of this open letter to his constituents from the political radical Charles James Fox. It argued his radical position and opposition to war with France. Significant here as France declared war on the United Kingdom six days later. Although this copy seems to lack the half title and a blank as it begins with the title page and the next leaf has the signature B our copy follows the pagination of OCLC 6595972. So we assume that the second edition had no half title. Contents themselves are complete. To the end is a single leaf of advertisements from Debretts end with a hanging "the" indicating there should be a second leaf here lacking. Sewn with twine as with all other copies we have seen. The covers have a little marking and edgewear but inside the contents are clean and tidy throughout. ii 43 1. pages. Charles James Fox a radical Whig reformer was first elected for a rotten borough in 1768 whilst he was still underage. He first represented the significant borough of Westminster in 1780 and remained their member of parliament until his death in 1806. 20cm x 11.5cm. Conforms to WorldCat / OCLC: 6595972. . Deuxième édition. Bel exemplaire de cette lettre ouverte adressée à ses électeurs par le radical Charles James Fox. Il y défend sa position radicale et son opposition à la guerre avec la France. Cette lettre est importante car la France déclara la guerre au Royaume-Uni six jours plus tard. Bien que cet exemplaire semble dépourvu de la moitié du titre et d'un blanc puisqu'il commence par la page de titre et que le feuillet suivant porte la signature B notre exemplaire suit la pagination de l'OCLC 6595972. Nous supposons donc que la deuxième édition n'avait pas de demi-titre. La table des matières est complète. A la fin se trouve un seul feuillet de publicité de Debretts avec un "the" suspendu indiquant qu'il devrait y avoir un deuxième feuillet ici manquant. Cousu avec de la ficelle comme pour tous les autres exemplaires que nous avons vus. Les couvertures ont un peu de marques et d'usure mais à l'intérieur le contenu est propre et bien rangé. ii 43 1. pages. Charles James Fox un réformateur Whig radical a été élu pour la première fois pour un borough pourri en 1768 alors qu'il était encore mineur.

A letter by Member of Parliament for Westminster Charles James Fox 1749-1806 to his constituents addressing the motives behind his recent motions in Commons particularly his efforts in averting conflict with France.

Engraved bookplate of: John Glaisyer Chymist & Druggist Brighton" Engraved armorial bookplate of Francis Frederick Fox. Contemporary full leather binding joints cracked. A nice copy of an important and scarce Quaker work. George Fox 1624-1691 was the founder of the Society of Friends Quakers. By nature serious and contemplative at the age of 19 he entered upon a wandering quest for spiritual enlightenment. In 1646 he underwent a mystical experience that convinced him that Christianity was not an outward profession but an inner light by which Christ directly illumines the believing soul. Revelation was for Fox not confined to the Scriptures. In 1647 he began to preach. Although often the victim of mob brutality and eight times imprisoned between 1649 and 1675 Fox won many followers especially among groups of separatists. In 1668 he prepared the first pattern of organization which was for some years to serve as the discipline of the Society of Friends. The London Yearly Meeting was started in 1671. To confirm his followers in their beliefs and to spread the truths Fox went in 1671 to the West Indies and to America where he made arduous journeys to various colonies scattered between New England and North Carolina. Later he twice visited Holland. His sincerity serenity fearlessness and powerful preaching are attested to by a number of his contemporaries. This Journal with a preface by William Penn was first published in 1694. An early owner of this book was Francis Frederick Fox 1832-1915 the 2nd son of Francis Ker Fox of Brislington House. He was an oil and colour merchant President of the Grateful Society in 1869. Sadly his wife Alice died in childbirth in 1870 and he was left a widower with six children. He was Master of the Society of Merchant Venturers in 1878 & 79 and Sheriff in 1894. He was a J.P. for Bristol and for Gloucestershire and an Alderman for the city from 1865. He wrote extensively on local history. Perhaps he was a descendant of the great Quaker George Fox. Smith p. 690; Sabin 25352. PRICE JUST REDUCED! PA62 Language: eng. 3rd Edition. Hardcover.
