OLD PRINTS OF
RICHMOND, TWICKENHAM
& KEW
This is a comprehensive collection,
including prints of all sorts of shapes, sizes, rarity and prices.
Acquiring a collection like this is completely out of our control,
and in the space of a couple of months, these have come from several
different sources, all by chance.
The prints are listed by artist, engraver or publisher. Sizes
are in centimetres, height first, either the plate size or the
image size. They are black & white unless stated otherwise.
Any faults are described. Many of them are in frames, probably
not to your taste, so the prints are priced ignoring any values
of the frames so if you buy a print you can have the frame if
you want it. Any print can be sent on approval without the frame,
subject to remaining unsold.

strange set of views titled: 'A Series of Picturesque Views of Noblemen's

After W. Hollar.
Richmond Palace.
The original etching by Hollar is a great rarity. It appears that
we have only had two of them since 1946. This is a very clever early
copy, or, as Bamber Gascoigne says in Images of Richmond, a forgery,
which it is on the basis that it is such a close copy that it must
be intended to deceive. There are some minor differences between
the Hollar and the copy. Hollar has a full stop after Richmond.
in the title in the sky at the centre. At the bottom edge is W.
Hollar, fecit 1638. In the copy there is not a comma. As with all
of Hollar's views, the building is well defined. In the foreground
is a group of people who, one assumes, have just disembarked from
a covered rowing boat. The man at the centre is remarkably like
James I.
Trimmed to image on all sides, otherwise good.
Image: 11 x 33.5cm.

 Another,
good copy, with no intention to fake, was signed M.V. dr Gucht sculp.
The signature is in the same place as the Hollar. There is not a
full stop after Richmond. This was published in 1719, included in
John Aubrey's Antiquities of the County of Surrey.

Delightful cartoons of a day out at Richmond, with five scenes on

Notice. Whosoever dares to enjoy the shade of these trees will be
prosecuted. Another family has disturbed some large flying insects.
Three men in a rowing boat are having difficulty in synchronising
the oars.

Both have margins of over 4 centimetres, but there
is no sign of a platemark, so the plates must have been unnecessarily

[View of Richmond Palace, with some of the buildings towards Petersham.
With Morris dancers.]
Vinkenboom Pinx. Godfrey Sculp. Dedicated to Viscountess Fitz-Williams,
who owned the painting from which the print was engraved. Published
by S. Hooper, 1774.
Beneath the dedication are three lines describing the ownership
and the whereabouts of the painting and continues: 'It was painted
by Vinkenboom & most probably done in the beginning of the Reign
of Charles the 1st., the Dresses of the figures point to this …
… The state of the Buildings, the Dresses of the Morice Dancers,
The Coach the Boats &c are portraits curious as matter of Antiquity.
At the centre is a ferry crossing, now the position of the bridge.
Well coloured at a later date.
Image: 21 x 34.5cm.
£ 250
The painting, mentioned above, is now at the Fitzwilliam Museum
in Cambridge, named after the founder, Viscount Fitzwilliam of Meryon.
The spelling of the Fitz-Williams in the tile of the print is probably
a mistake, and she was married to the founder. |
