Seller's Description
Original 1845 6 inch x 4 3/8 inch Etching and Engraving titled THE HON’BLE MRS...
Portrait of a woman, reclining three-quarter length, leaning on a carved pew, arms crossed and looking to right, wearing cap and flowers and pearls in her ringlets, with jewelled dress and rings; tiled arch behind.
Engraved by John Henry Robinson (1796 - 1871). A line, stipple and occasional mezzotint engraver from Bolton. He was apprenticed to James Heath between 1814-1818 and then set up initially as a book-illustrator. He engraved portraits and prints after popular contemporary painters, e.g. Landseer. He fought a long battle to win respect from the Royal Academy as a line-engraver and was eventually elected Associate Member of the Royal Academy in 1856.
From the portrait by Joseph Kenny Meadows (1790 - 1874). Prolific draughtsman on wood and caricaturist.
Published on October 1st, 1845, by Longman & Co., Paternoster Row, London
Plate size 9 1/8 inch x 6 1/2 inch
The engraving is in very good condition with slight age-related toning.
