- Abstract:
- An Etchmaster etching on a copper-plate surface so as to resemble an antique copper etching plate with a reproduction (cropped) of the scene from William Hogarth's 1738 print "Morning," the first in his "Four Times of the Day" series. In the center, a middle-aged woman walks from the left towards St. Paul's church; the clock on the tower showing 6:55. She is followed by a servant boy carrying her prayer book under his arm as he tries to warm his hands in his pocket and jacket. St. Paul's is partially hidden behind a tavern identified by a sign reading "Tom King's Coffee House." In front of the tavern is a fire where two couples embrace as two women warm themselves, the one reaching out to beg of the well-dressed woman. To the left, in the middle distance, a small crowd mulls around the gate

- Abstract:
- Two engraved boxwood printing blocks cut with copies of the first two plates from William Hogarth's The Rake's Progress, possibly produced for an edition of Hogarth's Graphic Works that was never completed. A reduced copy of another print by Thompson depicting a third scene from The rake's progress is mentioned in: Chatto, W.A. Treatise on wood engraving, historical and practical. London : Chatto and Windus, [1881]., The first block (a copy of Plate 1 from A Rake's Progress), engraved by Allen Robert Branston, depicts the Jacobean interior of the house of Tom Rakewell's late father: Tom is being measured for a new suit as he gives a handful of coins to the pregnant Sarah Young; behind him sits a lawyer compiling inventories whilst stealing from the coins on the desk; on the floor are boxes of miscellaneous goods, piles of mortgages, indentures, bond certificates and other documents; an old woman brings faggots to light a fire and an upholsterer attaching fabric to the wall reveals a hiding place for coins which tumble out. A later (probably late-19th or early-20th century) handwritten paper label on the side of the block reads: "R. Branston. Bewick pupil Fac. of W. Hogarth, J Bewick & Thurston O. & B. 3/6"., and The second block (a copy of Plate 2 from A Rake's Progress), engraved by John Thompson, shows a new fashionable interior with Tom, in elegant indoor dress, surrounded by tradesmen vying for his custom: a poet, a wigmaker, a tailor, a musician at a harpsichord, a fencing master, a prizefighter with quarter-staffs (said to be James Figg), a dancing master, a landscape-gardener (said to be Charles Bridgeman), a bodyguard, a huntsman and a jockey. A later (probably late-19th or early-20th century) handwritten paper label on the side of the block reads: "W Hogarth - Rake's Progress Thompson".

Thee shalt not say I called thee names, or beat thee, for that would be cruel!! but I will anoint thee with Oil, and moisten thy sides with my pure Linnement." The scene is in a yard with a high paling, outside an open door leading to the dispensing-room of the Quaker, evidently an apothecary. Just within the room is a large smoking jar of 'Oil of Vitriol'; on the door-step is a dish of smoking vitriol. Above are the neatly ranged jars, bottles, and drawers of an apothecary, with a pestle and mortar. A woman in an upper window of an adjacent house looks down into the yard; she shouts: "Ah Obadiah, that decietfull whining Cant, to allure the poor Animal, in order to inflict the most Diabolical unheard of Cruelty on him, shall not go unpunished"."--British Museum online catalogue
