Including an almost complete set of the drypoints in original portfolio, one of only 12 sets that were printed, of which only 10 were for sale."Percy Delf Smith arrived on the Western Front in late 1916 where he was posted to the Somme with the Royal Marines as a gunner. Shortly after his arrival he began sketching without authorisation. This activity was quickly noticed. Nevertheless, Captain High Boffey, who was Smith's superior, allowed him to continue. Smith however, seemingly unsatisfied with only producing rough sketches, changed his tactics in early 1917. [His parents sent him a] parcel [...] made up of the usual, letters and magazines from home. But within the magazine pages, [they] had managed to smuggle copper etching plates to their son. And so Smith began what he referred to as his 'Thiepval etchings'." Incredibly, it is believed that Smith used steel gramophone needles, a common feature in the trenches, to mark his plates. [Imperial War Museum, "Percy Delf Smith: Making Art as a Soldier on the Western Front"]"Few men living handle the needle to such purpose, and with so sincere an object, as the author of the plates here published" [William Rothenstein, "Note" to Twelve Drypoints of the War 1914-1918, 1925]
Ziegler (J.C.), Circle of. A Visitor to John Bull for the Year 1799, or, The Assess'd Taxes taking their leave!!, an original watercolour, possibly the preliminary design, inscribed and initialled 'TR', and a good impression of the original print presently attributed to Ziegler, etching with hand-colouring, each sheet approx. 265 x 365 mm (10 3/4 x 14 3/8 in), both laid onto card supports, associated spotting, surface dirt, and pale discolouration to the watercolour, both unframed, the print published by William Holland, [BM Satires 9280], 1799; together with an impression of Willian Holland's 'The Bedfordshire Hannibal taking the oath of eternal enmity!!!', which appears to be to be in same hand, etching with hand-colouring, 300 x 390 mm (11 3/4 x 15 1/4 in), unframed, [BM 9191], 1798 (3)⁂ The original watercolour has signs of pencil under-drawing, and notable differences to the published print, suggesting it is possibly a preliminary study for the print, rather than a copy after. Andrew Edmunds had suggested a possible attribution to the author of the etching being Ziegler, however it is not known whether Andrew had seen the present watercolour bearing the initials 'TR'.
