HENRY MAYHEW From a Daguerreotype by BEARD. 1851. Henry Mayhew (25 November 1812 - 25 July 1887) was an English social researcher, journalist, playwright and advocate of reform. He was one of the two founders of the satirical and humorous magazine Punch, and the magazine's joint-editor, with Mark Lemon, in its early days. He is better known, however, for his work as a social researcher, publishing an extensive series of newspaper articles in the Morning Chronicle, later compiled into the book series London Labour and the London Poor ; a groundbreaking and influential survey of the poor of London. Mayhew's work was embraced by and was an influence on the Christian Socialists, such as Thomas Hughes, Charles Kingsley, and F. D. Maurice. Radicals also published sizeable excerpts from the reports in the Northern Star, the Red Republican and other newspapers. The often sympathetic investigations, with their immediacy and unswerving eye for detail, offered unprecedented insights into the condition of the Victorian poor. Alongside the earlier work of Edwin Chadwick, they are also regarded as a decisive influence on the thinking of Charles Dickens. 6 x 9 inches. Click for Image

David Garrick esq. Engraved by Robert Cooper from a picture by Robert Edge Pine. c. 1815-1817. One of the greatest English actors, David Garrick was described by his contemporary Edmund Burke as one who "raised the character of his profession to the rank of a liberal art." Garrick made his London theatrical debut in 1741 as Richard III, becoming an overnight success. His natural acting style radically transformed the English theatre of his day.As the manager of London's Drury Lane Theatre, Garrick led the way for many innovations in theatre operations, introducing concealed stage lighting and removing the audience from the stage. True to his immersion in all aspects of the theatre, Garrick authored several plays, adapted existing plays, and wrote numerous epilogues and prologues for other playwrights' work. The original oil on canvas is held by the National Portrait Gallery. A fine and rare stipple engraving 7 x 11 inches. Click for Image

Stipple engraving of the eminent English poet, hymnodist and abolitionist. One of the most popular poets of his time, Cowper changed the direction of 18th century nature poetry by writing of everyday life and scenes of the English countryside. He suffered from periods of severe depression, and although he found refuge in a fervent evangelical Christianity, the inspiration behind his much-loved hymns, he often experienced doubt and feared that he was doomed to eternal damnation.

Jan Lievens created the portrait of Daniel Heinsius probably sometime in 1639. when the artist returned to his hometown for a visit.339 Daniel Heinsius (1580-1655). like Lievens a native of Leiden. was a famous philologist. poet and teacher at the University of Leiden from 1603 until his death. From 1607 onward Heinsius also held the post of Head Librarian at the University.Lievens. whose approach to portraiture was influenced by Anthony van Dyck. emphasizes his sitter's scholarly qualities by some simple means. Heinsius's thoughtful expression. his right hand resting on a book. the position of his left hand that highlights a prized medal. and the fur-trimmed robe that seems to have been accepted attire for a professor, together result in a sensitive portrait that reflects his intellectual accomplishments.Lievens's abilities as one of the foremost Netherlandish portraitists were foreseen in the almost prophetic pronouncement made by Constantijn Huygens when Lievens was in his early twenties. Huygens, a patron of the arts and secretary to Prince Frederik Hendrik. suggested that Lievens created miracles in the interpretation of his faces.''' Lievens's acute powers of observation seem to have been appreciated by his contemporaries.. since he executed numerous commissions for portraits of important personages.Literature: Hollstein 22 /"IV" (Ioan.

If my son should happen to be a man of feeling, sentiment, and taste, I shall thus add largely to his enjoyments. Let me flatter myself that this sweet little fellow, who is just now running about my desk, will be a man of melting, ardent, glowing heart; and an imagination, delighted with the painter, and rapt with the poet. Let me figure him wandering out in a sweet evening to inhale the balmy gales, and enjoy the growing luxuriance of the spring; himself the while in the blooming youth of life. He looks abroad on all nature, and through nature up to nature's God.

Portrait of John Moody (1727-1812). an actor of Drury Lane and regarded by some historians as the real founder of the American stage...and possessing a rich brogue, he acquired some reputation playing Irish parts. Aspiring to
be a tragedian, although the London managers insisted he was only a comedian, he became disgusted with England and sailed for the West Indies,
reaching Jamaica in 1745. There he found an amateur company giving performances in a ball room. He proposed to them the opening of a regular
theatre with a company which he offered to bring out from England. The suggestion was accepted, subscriptions were opened and Moody re-appeared
the following year with a company.
The success of the venture was such that Moody made a fortune in four years. At the end of that time, however, the ranks of his players had
been so thinned by illness that he found himself compelled to return to England to obtain new recruits. When he arrived in London such
inducements were made to him by Garrick to return to the stage that he gave up all idea of the Jamaica enterprise and sold out his interest to
the company he had already gathered, the chief members of which were Messrs. Douglass, Kershaw, Smith, Daniels, Morris and their wives and a
Miss Hamilton, the principal actress.
This little band of players set sail, reaching Jamaica in 1751, "the first dramatic company," says John Bernard, "that crossed the Atlantic of
which there exists any personal record." 11.25 x 14.25 inches.

"Mademoiselle Duvernay danced and acted quite beautifully, with so much grace and feeling...She looked quite lovely...and I was very much amused."Victoria wrote in her diary after watching a performance of The Maid of Cashmere (Le Dieu et la Bayadère) on 19 March 1833.

“When I think of Duvernay prancing in as the Bayadère, I say it was a vision of loveliness such as mortal eyes can’t see nowadays. How well I remember the tune to which she used to appear! Kaled [said] to the Sultan, ‘My Lord, a troop of those dancing and singing girls called Bayadères approaches’, and, to the clash of cymbals and the thumping of my heart, in she used to dance! There has never been anything like it – never. There never will be.” - William Makepeace Thackeray

1836-7, Yolande danced the role of Florinda in the first London production of The Devil on Two Sticks (Le Diable Boiteux), in which she performed an unusual Spanish dance, the cachucha

John Frederick Lewis R.A. (1805-1876). Yolande Duvernay [stage name: Pauline Duvernay] as Florinda in Le Diable Boiteux. Original hand-coloured lithograph printed by Charles Hullmandel, 1837, Goupil and McLean. 15 x 11 inches.

Pauline Duvernay was an extremely popular dancer in London in the 1840s. She was a particular favourite of the young Princess Victoria (later Queen Victoria), an avid theatre-goer, who, in her art classes, would then draw the performers. The results are held in the Royal Archives, and include many sketches of Duvernay in different roles.
Duvernay is wearing the pink, frilled Spanish-style dress worn by Florinda, heroine of Jean Coralli's 1836 ballet Le Diable Boîteaux (The Devil on Two Sticks or The Lame Devil), to dance the Cachucha, which was the high-spot of the ballet. The Cachucha is a stylized Spanish dance, originally from Cuba; it covers a range of movements, sometimes gracefully calm, sometimes sprightly and sometimes impassioned hip swinging, while making great use of the castanets.

This listing is for an original hand-coloured lithograph by John Frederick Lewis (1805-1876), printed in London, England on 2/14/1837 by C. Hullmandel (1789-1850), Published by Thomas McLean & Co. The lithograph after a drawing by J F Lewis, shows Pauline Duvernay in the role of Florinda in Le Diable Boîteux (translated as The Devil on Two Sticks or The Lame Devil).

The print is cut across the corners. Beneath the image is the facsimile signature 'Pauline Duvernay' along with the text: " London Published Feb. 14th 1837 by Tho. McLean, 26 Haymarket - Paris chez Ruttner et Goupit - Depose - Printed by C. Hullmandel"
Paper; Watercolour; Lithographic ink; Giltwood frame, matted, with glass.

The Cachucha is a stylized Spanish dance, originally from Cuba; it covers a range of movements, sometimes gracefully calm, sometimes sprightly and sometimes impassioned hip swinging, while making great use of the castanets.
The dancer stands on a terrace against a balustrade with foliage to either side, the body turned to her left and the head turned to her right. Her left hand is at the waist, her right arm is down and she holds castanets in her hand. Her hair is in mid-Victorian style, dressed with a rose at her right and a comb to her left. Her short-sleeved, calf-length, off the shoulder pink dress is trimmed with black lace and ribbons, the skirt having two deep frills of black lace. Her black ballet slippers are tied with ribbons.
Historical significance: The large souvenir prints of the Romantic ballet, issued in the 1830s and 1840s, are among the most evocative images of dance in the 19th century. Lithography, with its soft quality, enhanced by the delicate yet rich hand-colouring, was ideally suited to the subject - the ballerinas who dominated ballet in the mid-century and the romanticised settings in which they performed; style and subject were perfectly matched. The British lithographs are notable for capturing individual performers and their style, often clearly in a theatrical setting. They capture dance and its interpreters at one of its greatest periods.

John Frederick Lewis [1 ] (14 July 1804 – 15 August 1876) was an Orientalist English painter. He specialized in Oriental and Mediterranean scenes and often worked in exquisitely detailed watercolour . He was the son of Frederick Christian Lewis (1779–1856), engraver and landscape-painter.
Lewis lived in Spain between 1832 and 1834. He lived in Cairo between 1841 and 1850, where he made numerous sketches that he turned into paintings even after his return to England in 1851. He lived in Walton-on-Thames until his death.

Lewis became an Associate of the Royal Academy (ARA) in 1859 and a member (an RA) in 1865.
After being largely forgotten for decades, he became extremely fashionable, and expensive, from the 1970s and good works now fetch prices into the millions of dollars or pounds at auction.

108. Portraits of Calotta Grisi Perrot. A Scene in the ballet . Georgian Theatrical Engraved Plate of 1836: Carlotta Grisi & Jules Perrot in 'Le Rossignol' at the King's Theatre

Portrait of Carlotta Grisi and Mr (Jules) Perrot in a scene from the Ballet 'Le Rossignol' (The Nightingale) as performed at the Kings Theatre, London 1836. (This was Carlotta Grisi's debut performance.) Dawn and etched by T. Jones and aquatint by Hunt. Pub. 1836, by Mr Bell, removed to no 28 Craven Street, the Strand, London .

Carlotta Grisi, in full Caronna Adela Giuseppina Maria Grisi (born June 28, 1819, Visinada, Istria, Austrian Empire [now Vizinada, Croatia] - died May 29, 1899, Saint-Jean, near Geneva, Switzerland), Italian ballerina of the Romantic era who was a muse to the choreographer and dancer Jules Perrot and to the poet Théophile Gautier; she created the title role in Giselle.

A cousin of the celebrated opera singer Giulia Grisi, Carlotta Grisi received her early training at the ballet school of La Scala in Milan. Her family was poor, and at age 10 she was withdrawn from the school to join a touring opera company. In 1834 she entered the ballet company of the San Carlo, Naples; there she attracted the attention of Jules Perrot, who molded her into a ballerina of exquisite sensitivity. Their visit to London in 1836 was followed by a longer engagement in Vienna. In 1840 they appeared—she as Madame Perrot, although they were never married—at a minor Paris theatre in a light opera, Zingaro. Perrot’s plan was to negotiate a joint engagement at the Paris Opéra, but it was Grisi alone who was engaged.

Grisi’s first creation at the Opéra was Giselle (1841), which immediately established her as the successor to the great stars of the 1830s, Marie Taglioni and Fanny Elssler. It also marked the beginning of a lifelong friendship with the poet and critic Théophile Gautier, who, in collaboration with the dramatist Jules-Henri Vernoy de Saint-Georges, had written the scenario of Giselle. He also later wrote the scenario of La Péri (1843), in which she repeated her former triumph. Grisi remained the undisputed principal ballerina of the Opéra until 1849, creating roles in François Decombe Albert’s La Jolie Fille de Gand (1842), Joseph Mazilier’s Le Diable à quatre (1845) and Paquita (1846), and Perrot’s La Filleule des fées (1849).

The terms of her Paris engagement did not prevent her from appearing at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London, where she danced in Giselle and Le Diable à quatre and also created leading roles in Perrot’s dramatic masterpiece La Esmeralda (1844) and Paul Taglioni’s Electra (1849) and Les Métamorphoses (1850). In London she was also featured in two divertissements, Perrot’s Pas de quatre (1845) and Paul Taglioni’s Les Graces (1850). Her last London creation was the mime role of Ariel in Fromental Halévy’s opera La Tempesta (1850), in which she made a striking foil to the Caliban of the celebrated bass Luigi Lablache.

The last phase of Grisi’s career took place in St. Petersburg, at a time when Perrot was ballet master. She danced there from 1850 to 1853, appearing not only in roles she had created elsewhere but also in three new works by her former teacher, The Naiad and the Fisherman (1851), The War of the Women (1852), and Gazelda (1853). She last appeared onstage in Warsaw in 1853.
