  • Used
Caricature - [Batavian Revolt - Democracy - Orangists - William V of Orange - Court jesters] Wy ryden naar St. Omer. Northern Nederlands, (1787). Plate size: ca. 25 x 18.5 cm; Sheet size: ca. 32 x 26 cm. Engraved political caricature depicting the defeated Patriots as 3 court fools riding on donkeys to St. Omer in France.


Fine and rare engraved political print, a caricature by the Orangists on the flight of the defeated Dutch Patriots to St. Omer, France in 1787. The Patriots, a revolutionary democratic movement, also in favour of the American Independence, challenged from about 1780 more and more the authority of the Stadtholder William V of Orange. In 1785 Wiliam even had to move his court to the Southern Netherlands. But his more energetic wife, sister of Frederik Wilhelm II of Prussia, tried to force the issue by travelling to The Hague. After she was stopped at Goejanverwellesluis by the Patriots of Gouda, she made her brother raid the Northern Netherlands. It marked the end of the Dutch Patriot movement and the return of William V to The Hague. The Patriots had to wait until the French Revolution for democratic reforms.

Good copy of an amusing political print with broad, (the full original) blank margins. -

Description:
1685 1ed Minority Report History of Louis IX Louis XI Henry II French Kings
Antoine Varillas was a French historiographer who is remembered for his numerous historical accounts of French royals such as King Louis XI, Louis XII, Henri II, and even Saint Louis.Unfortunately, his writings received little recognition. As a result, his scholarly reputation was negatively impacted. Initially having high hopes, his works failed to reach the status he had desired during his lifetime. It was not until much later that the public would show interest in his writings.
In 1685, Varillas' book on the lives and reigns of Saint Louis, Louis XI, and Henri II was published in La Haye.

"November" - Trekvogels in maannacht [ = Migratory birds in moon night]. Original colour lithograph, printed on chine appliqué (collé), 1907; monogram in the right lower corner of the image. Image size: 220 x 151mm; with the wide margins: 450 x 331mm. There's very mild foxing in the margins only. - De Groot / Rijksmuseum, n° 154; Godoli, page 62. -Very rare proof impression of the central image of Hoytema's calendar page for November, 1907. Very few proofs as this were printed. The captivating image is illustrated and discussed by Cliff Ackley on pages 120-121 of the catalogue "Holland on Paper in the Age of Art Nouveau" (Boston, Museum of Fine Arts, 2014). Between 1902 till 1909 these calendars were published by Hoytema himself. - The closest thing to a pure landscape among all Van Hoytema's calendar lithographs.
