JAMES MALTON (1761-1803)A set of twenty-five views of Dublin in hand coloured aquatints ''A Picturesque and Descriptive view of the City of Dublin''Frames 30 x 42.5cmJames Malton is thought to have lived in Dublin during the 1780s with his father Thomas Malton, an architectural draughtsman and teacher. According to the Publius source he was apprenticed to James Gandon, the famous architect, at the age of 17 in 1781. Malton's apprenticeship to Gandon was terminated after three years by mutual consent, after which he moved to London, working from there with frequent visits back to Dublin. Malton engaged on his grand project to produce his ''Picturesque Views of Dublin'', on a scale hitherto unknown even in London. Dublin pre-Act of Union in 1800 was of course an incredibly rich and vibrant city at the zenith of its financial and cultural powers, and so to Malton it must have appeared ripe for acceptance of such a publication to celebrate its status as the city second only to London. The book was published in six parts by subscription, as was the custom starting in 1792. The painting itself was carried out in London The book proved in part to be too great an undertaking for Malton, and he could not have foreseen the exodus which took place in the city after the Act of Union in 1800. He died in 1803 in London at the age of 38 of a brain fever, and undoubtedly did not reap the rewards of his endeavour.James Malton (1761-1803) undertook his ‘Views of Dublin’ project in the 1780s and began to publish his set of twenty-five prints in 1792. Completed as an architecturally accurate depiction of Dublin, these prints served as a visual record for the city. The prints enlightened those living in the latter part of the 18th century as to the nature of Dublin and, to this day, they have maintained their importance as a captivating illustration of the city as it was.In 1796, ‘St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin’ was published, providing a view stretching from the North West corner of the park, near what is now the Grafton Street entrance, towards Leeson Street. This idyllic and civilised portrayal of urban park life acts in direct juxtaposition to the area’s previous history. The area of St. Stephen’s Green was so called on account of St. Stephen’s Church and its accompanying leper house that was founded in the vicinity c.1192. Until 1664, the Green itself consisted of a swampy stretch of land in which the locals could graze their livestock in between public executions and witch burnings. In order to reform this part of Dublin, an area of 27 acres was bordered off by lime trees with the surrounding plots of land being subject to housing development. Only those inhabiting these plots were granted access to the Green.During the next century, the Stephen’s Green area rose in popularity as the opening of Grafton Street (1708) and Dawson Street (1723) piqued the interest of fashionable individuals. As such, the park soon became a promenade of high society, with particular devotion being given to the ‘Beaux Walk’ which ran along its northern edge. It is here that Malton has set his scene, portraying Dublin society at leisure. As ladies and gentleman pause for idle chatter, the viewer is encompassed by the lazy hum of their surroundings, whilst a pointing figure on the right directs our eye across the expanse of green, over a statue of George III by John van Nost and out to the city beyond. Rising in unison, these buildings are a stark reminder of Georgian solidarity and represent the building standards that were put on the Green’s surrounding plots of land. With the passing of an Act of Parliament in 1814, we see St. Stephen’s Green warping slightly from Malton’s depiction. Where once people could walk their dogs, these animals were now banned, along with such acts as running and jumping and any other exertion that might harm the land and the plants on it.This is all changed when, in 1880, Lord Ardilaun officially opened St. Stephen’s Green to the general public. In 1884, he handed possession of the Green over to the Dublin Corporation to hold on behalf of the people. From here, the Green, now under the control of the OPW, has progressed into the area that we know today.Over two hundred years after Malton committed his 18th century park to paper, the Green still holds a resemblance to its past. Whilst certain changes cannot be denied, for example the destruction of van Nost’s statue which once stood proudly in the centre, or the extensive growth of the lime trees bordering the walks, the similarities remain. Visitors to Dublin continue to enjoy the ‘Beau Walk’ and, with a change of costume, Malton’s seen would appear quite at home in the 21st century city.

JOHN THOMAS (1813-1862) UNDER THE DIRECTION OF SIR CHARLES BARRY (1795-1860) AN ANSTON STONE STATUE OF QUEEN VICTORIA holding an orb, the reverse with a bronze fixing and inscribed "Southwick", 68" high. See illustration Provenance: The Houses of Parliament The Gladstone Family at Moortown House, Ringwood, Hampshire. Private collection, Hampshire. John Thomas (1813-1862) was Superintendent of Stone-Carving at the Houses of Parliament (cf. MH Port: "The Houses of Parliament", published for the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art 1976, pg. 243, pl. 164. for a reproduction of the wash drawing for the statue of Queen Victoria by John Thomas). It was under his supervision that the Gothic-style statues for the exterior of the building were supplied by the Thames Bank Workshop. On pg. 245 of the same volume, Port states: "It is impossible to make out individual contributors to the architectural sculpture", but from this inscribed example it would appear that Southwick was one of them. John Thomas was born in Gloucestershire and his earliest employment in that locality was restoring the lettering and sometimes the sculptural decoration of gravestones, which gave him experience in an important area of Perpendicular Churches. A visit to Oxford focused his attention more specifically on drawing architectural details correctly and developing skill and knowledge as a carver. Then at Birmingham, where his brother was an architect, he worked on a number of large buildings including Barry's King Edward VI Grammar School and it was as a result of his competence in Gothic detailing that he came to Barry's notice. Although Thomas was not officially appointed Superintendent of Stone-Carving at Westminster until 1846, Barry probably engaged him soon after the completion of the Birmingham school and on 13th May 1841 the Office of Works approved Barry's arrangement with Thomas for the stone-carving. Barry's own contribution to the design of the sculptural programme cannot be in much doubt. He would undoubtedly have drawn up the overall plan subsequently delegating certain specific areas to qualified specialists. Precise dating for the various elements of the sculptural programme is not easy. Specific contemporary references to the sculpture are rare and often incidental, but it is possible to propose an outline chronology. Ryde's "Illustrations" of 1849 shows this statue flanked by Justice and Mercy and writes of the sculpture of the porch as if it were in situ. In an illustration of the State Opening of Parliament in 1852 the figures are shown in position.
