David HessHollandia Regenerata - Rare Original Illustrated Pamphlet - 17951795
1795
About the Item
Calcography on frontispiece, 20 engraved sanguine tables and 20 text pages in Dutch, French and English with some minor ancient restoration. Tables in excellent conditions.
Half leather binding with angles on plates and title on printed label on the front plate (worn).
Very rare copy of this early original edition, limited to only 1.200 copies, focusing on the merciless satire of the revolutionary groups and political leanings. Each table in fact represents a different revolutionary political committee in a grotesque and caricatural way.
Based on Hess’drawings, the woodcuts were probably realized by the great English caricaturist James Gillray (1757-1815).
David Hess was born in Switzerland.1 He followed his family tradition and embarked on a military career, serving from 1787 to 1796 in Holland with the Swiss Guards). Before 1874, when foreign military service was outlawed by the Swiss Constitution, the Swiss Guards were based at various European Courts. Hess witnessed at close quarters the massacre of his fellow guardsmen by French Revolutionary troops and remained a fierce critic of post-Revolutionary politics for the rest of his life, which saw the restoration of the monarchic regimes after The Congress of Wien. Hess expressed his strong visions and opinions in his literary writings and in a series of powerful caricatures. He was particularly critical of the Dutch ‘Bataafse Republiek’ (Batavian Republic), modelled on post-Revolutionary France.
