1887réf. 7743.13125Small faux leather covered boards Initials FLEP & BLEP slight toning else content appears as unblemished with Very Good Faux Brown Boards displaying minor surface/edge wear. A drama written by the German playwright Friedrich Schiller first published in 1804. The play is set in Switzerland during the early 14th century and revolves around the legendary figure of William Tell a skilled marksman and symbol of resistance against oppression. The plot centers on the struggle of the Swiss people against the tyranny of the Austrian governor Gessler. The governor imposes harsh laws and a humiliating act requiring local citizens to bow before his hat displayed on a pole. William Tell defies this order leading to dramatic consequences. Key themes of the play include the fight for freedom individual courage in the face of tyranny and the moral imperative of resistance against unjust authority. Tell's legendary marksmanship is famously showcased when he is forced to shoot an apple off his son's head as a demonstration of his skill. Schiller's play is notable for its exploration of the ideals of liberty and justice making it a cornerstone of German literature and a poignant reflection on the human spirit's desire for freedom. The edition edited by C. A. Buchheim with English notes serves as a tool for readers to engage with the text and its historical and cultural context. Insurance & handling is included free.

1830réf. 6526London 1830. Aquatints coloured by hand. A fine complete series of four anonymous prints of hunting scenes possibly after the Alkens. The style and naming of these prints suggests an Alken origin for the series. Siltzer records a number of series by the Alken family in which the first plate is titled "Unkennelling." This title appears to be unique to them and supports the supposition that the present series are after the Alkens. Henry Thomas Alken was born into what became an artistic dynasty. He studied under the miniature painter J. T. Barber and exhibited his first picture a miniature portrait at the Royal Academy when he was sixteen. From about 1816 onwards he "produced an unending stream of paintings drawings and engravings of every type of field and other sporting activity. He is best remembered for his hunting prints many of which he engraved himself until the late 1830s.To many sporting art is "Alken" and to describe his work or ability is quite unnecessary." Charles Lane British Racing Prints pp. 75-76 Cf. Siltzer pp.57-76. unknown
