About the Item
Engraving by Claude Fessard after Johann Lebrecht Reinold for "Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux d'Afrique" by François Levaillant (1753-1824), published 1796-1808.
François Levaillant was a French author, naturalist, and ornithologist. Sponsored by Jacob Temminck, a natural history collector and treasurer in the Dutch East India Company, Levaillant traveled to South Africa from 1781-1784, collecting over 2,000 specimens for Temminck. These travels became the basis of his monumental six-volume work "Histoire Naturelle des Oiseaux d'Afrique", the only substantial ornithological work on Africa published during that period. It contained over 300 illustrations of birds in naturalistic poses, and is still admired today for the quality of the prints and lively style of writing.

- Royal Sports PIT TICKET - 18thC Entry Ticket to Cock Fight in Georgian EnglandBy William HogarthLocated in Meinisberg, CHAfter William Hogarth (British, 1697–1764) Royal Sports PIT TICKET • Engraving by William Dent (British), active from 1783 to 1793 • Inscribed bottom right: Dent sculp • Plate ca. 7.6 x 9.1cm • Image ca. 6.3 x 7.9 cm • Sheet ca. 23.5 x 15 cm Fantastic imagery full of detail and symbolism – For example discover the cast shadow of the dept collector with his truncheon, looming over the winner, whose fast gained riches are being stolen by a thief as we watch. This well know subject was originally created by the famous British artist William Hogarth and then reproduced over time by many contemporary artists as prints of various formats and as paintings. Here we have a rendition engraved by William Dent, who was active from 1783 to 1793 and signed his work in the plate bottom right. I think this impression would date to the late 18th or then to the very early 19th Century. I was told, that these small prints, served as entry tickets to cock fights in Georgian England...Category
