Add to basketStrongitharm's entry on the British Museum website is the main source of information about him. In 1841 'John Strongitharm' is listed in the Royal Calendar among the 'Queen's Tradesmen', 'In the Department of the Lord Chamberlain', as 'Seal Engraver'. The present item is an well-executed and carefully hand-coloured steel engraving of the royal arms (lion and unicorn), topped by a banner with 'LORD CHAMBERLAIN'S OFFICE'. Engraved in small letters beneath the image: 'Strongitharm, Waterloo Place'. Printed on a somewhat-aged and lightly worn piece of thickish laid paper, 11.5 x 6.5. The item is clearly a proof, as it bears instructions in contemporary hand in pencil on the reverse: 'The words / Honi soit qui mal y pense / and / Dieu et mon droit / should be painted with letters of Gold'. See Image.
