No Binding. Condition: Very Good. [London.] P:Lelii delin. A: de Jode. Sculp: [Richard Thompson, c.1667.] Engraving (sheet 32.7 x 45.9cm; platemark 28.7 x 36.2 cm) margins a little dusty with one small ink mark and small closed tear not touching printed surface, verso with collection stamp (Defer-Dumesnil), very good. This print depicting the artist and collector Sir Peter Lely (1618-1680), the most prominent portrait painter of the court of Charles II, can be dated to c.1667. It was engraved, after a self portrait by Lely, by Arnold de Jode (1638-1667), a talented Antwerp-born printmaker who resided in London in the mid 1660s. The publisher was Richard Tompson (d.1693), a pioneering dealer, auctioneer and printseller whose business was based at The Sun in Bedford Street. The British Museum copy (P,6.141) is cropped unlike this present example which has very large margins. Provenance: the small nineteenth century stamp to verso (Lugt 739) is that of the Defer-Dumesnil collection formed by Pierre Defer (1798-1870) and his son-in-law Henri Dumesnil (1823-98). A good example of a scarce print.
