The Destruction of Jerusalem, colour lithograph heightened with watercolour, Louis Haghe after David Roberts, mounted on board bearing blind-stamp for 'Hering & Remington, Regent Street', the board signed in pencil l.l., 'David Roberts R.A.', signed in pencil l.r., 'L. Haghe'. Together with a separately published key to the picture, bold black & white outline of the scene with numerical system indicating exactly what is being depicted (from landmarks to individual figures). The key advertises the finished print as being 'Printed in Colours by Day & Son, Lithographers to the Queen', and, at lower margin, 'Published by Hering & Remington, 137 Regent Street, London' (matching the board of finished lithograph). The original painting by David Roberts was sold at Christie's in 1961 and has never been traced, hence the importance of the lithograph and corresponding key. The lithograph is trimmed to image (no publisher details), but the Hering & Remington mount, and signatures in pencil, suggests that this is how it was issued. The lithograph measures 69cm by 106cm (image only), 78cm by 116cm (including mount). The key measures 50cm by 68cm. The lithograph has several nicks and scratches; the mount has several tears with loss to corners; the whole is in need of cleaning; dampstaining to mount. The key has fold-lines running horizontally and vertically, some foxing. Each picture is framed, the lithograph is not glazed (2)
