PREFACE.
This is the Catalogue of Part V of the Print Collection made
by Mr. Frederic R. Halsey. It embraces nearly a thousand
engravings in mezzotint by the most famous English artists
of the eighteenth century.
William Dickinson’s engravings of Diana Viscountess Cros-
bie and Elizabeth Countess of Derby, both after the paint-
ings by Reynolds, are justly celebrated. Earlom’s Flower
Piece and Fruit Piece are exquisite specimens of the engrav-
er’s art. Of the mezzotints by Edward Fisher the Lady Sarah
Bunbury after Reynolds has very high rank.
Valentine Green is represented by 65 engravings, many
of them exceedingly desirable. The mezzotint of Georgiana
Duchess of Devonshire engraved after Reynolds is perhaps
the most valuable, though the engravings of the Countess of
Aylesford, Lady Halliday, and the Duchess of Cumberland
(after Reynolds and Gainsborough) rank very high, as do
several others. Richard Houston, John Jones, James Mac-
Ardell, William Pether, and William Say engraved many
beautiful plates after Zaffany, Romney, Reynolds, Hoppner,
Lely, Lawrence, and Harlow, and some of their finest produc-
tions are in the collection.
George Morland was a painter whose works were engraved
by many artists in stipple and mezzotint. In this collection
are thirty-two mezzotints from his paintings, of which the
most important are those by William Ward, notably The First
of September—Morning, The First of September—Evening,
the Farmer’s Stable, and the Last Litter. Catalogued under the
name of the engraver are more than forty other very desirable
mezzotints by Ward, of which the most famous is the Vege--
table Market after a painting by his brother James.
Pym is represented by only one print, but it is excessively
rare—The Stray’d Child—and there is only one by Doughty,
but this is a very fine early impression of the portrait of Dr.
Samuel Johnson after the celebrated painting by his friend
Reynolds. There are nearly seventy mezzotints by Charles
Turner, of which the best are Louisa Countess of Dysart after
Hoppner’s portrait and the Marlborough Family after Sir
Joshua Reynolds. The last of the great mezzotint engravers
of the English school was Samuel William Reynolds, and he
is represented by nearly sixty prints, several of which are of
the highest class. Too much praise cannot be given to his
engraving of Hoppner’s portrait of the Duchess of Bedford.
It'is one of the most valuable prints in the Collection.
One of the greatest of the engravers was John Raphael
Smith, and more than sixty of his prints are now offered. Of
these, Mother and Child, Miss Cumberland, and the Claver-
ing portraits after Romney, Lady Beaumont after Reynolds,
and Amanthis, Felicia, and the Promenade at Carlisle House,
after the engraver’s own designs, are remarkably fine.
James Watson, also an engraver of the highest rank, is well
represented. The most highly esteemed of his prints are those
engraved after portraits by Reynolds, and attention should
be called to the mezzotints of Elizabeth Duchess of Manches-
ter, Georgiana Viscountess Spencer, and Mrs. Bunbury, and
particularly to those of Mrs. Hale and Anne Duchess of Cum-
berland. All of these are extremely important.
Thomas Watson is another engraver whose work is of great
beauty and strength. His mezzotints of Mrs. Hardinge and
Warren Hastings (both after Reynolds) are esteemed very
highly, and five portraits engraved after Sir Peter Lely—
Frances Lady Whitmore, Henrietta Countess of Rochester,
Frances Duchess of Richmond, Elizabeth Countess of North-
umberland, and Amelia Countess of Ossory—will always be
famous; they are masterpieces of this form of reproduction.
The very highest praise must be given to the engraving by
Thomas Watson of Sir Joshua Reynolds’s portrait of Lady
Broughton, which is regarded by many connoisseurs as the
rarest and most valuable of all the English mezzotints. Mr.
Halsey’s copy is a superb proof before the title.
This Catalogue was prepared by Mr. Ferdinand Meder and
Mr. Maurice Sloog.

from the point to which it had been brought by Faber by adopting bold-
ness, decision, and freedom of handling without losing either accuracy
or truth. His talents were highly appreciated by the great painters of —
his time, especially by Reynolds, who considered that his own fame would
be preserved by MacArdell’s engravings when the pictures had faded.
