$a Most plates carry signatures of the source artist, F. Chantrey, the draughtsmen H. Corbould, S. Cousins or T. Sharp, and the engravers, Jas. Thomson, Samuel Cousins, F.C. Lewis, Charles Turner, J. Burnet, S.W. Reynolds or I.T. Wedgwood. Plate [3] is simply signed 'Freebairn', and is presumably engraved by him. Plates [6] and [7] are signed as lithographed by Massimo Gauci with their captions scripted by J. Netherclift. Plates [1] and [6] carry the imprint of Colnaghi and Son (plate [6] with the name of C. Hullmandel as the lithographic printer); plates [5] and [7] that of F. Moser; plate [11] that of Henry Fisher, Caxton; plate [12] that of Turner; plate [17] that of W. Sams. |

$a No date of publication is given. Some plates carry publication-dates, ranging from 1820 [pl. 6, 7] through 1821 [pl. 11], 1825 [pl. 17], 1827 [pl.1, 18] to 1832 [pl. 12]. Several plates are pasted in, and this set of plates may be an ad hoc collection with a title-page made specially for it. The plates show portrait statues or busts sculpted by Sir Francis Chantrey, and one drawing and one design by him. All but one are captioned, and show: [1] Francis Chantrey; [2] Sir John Malcolm; [3] Cyril Jackson; [4] Sir Joseph Banks; [5] Dr. Anderson; [6] Benjamin West; [7] George III; [8] Sir Edward Hyde East; [9] George Canning; [10] William Pitt; [11] John Rennie; [12] Sir John Soane; [13] Earl St. Vincent [drawing]; [14] Arthur Henry Hallam; [15] Sir Stamford Raffles; [16] [uncaptioned: reclining female]; [17] George IV; [18] Granville Sharp; [19] Robert Blair; [20] John Rennie; [21] Lord Eldon [design for a monument]. Sir Francis Leggatt Chantrey took the place of Joseph Nollekens as the most sought-after portrait sculptor in Britain. He was elected a full Member of the Royal Academy in 1818. On his death Chantrey left a bequest to be administered by the Royal Academy to buy 'works of fine art of the highest merit executed within the shores of Great Britain'. Most of these are now kept at the Tate Britain gallery, London. |
