Gaspar Strait Engraved chart on two sheets, joined. Chart of the navigational channel between the islands of Bangka and Belitung in the Java Sea. Showing the tracks of several English vessels from the 1780s. From an early edition of Laurie & Whittle's rare 'East India Pilot', and one of the first charts published after their pur…chase of Robert's Sayer's business. Laurie & Whittle's 'East India Pilot' was published as a practical guide to navigators aboard ships of the Royal Navy and East Indiamen, and often taken to sea, and this chart appears to be no exception. All variants of Laurie and Whittle's 'Oriental' pilots of eastern waters are scarce, and were published under several titles, each with a different complement of charts. Variants include: 'The Country Trade East-India Pilot, for the Navigation of the East-Indies and Oriental Seas, within the limits of the East-India Company', 'The Complete East-India Pilot, or Oriental Navigator', 'The East-India Pilot, or Oriental Navigator', and 'The Oriental Pilot; Or, East-India Directory' focusing on the most important charts used for the journey. The foundation of the partnership of Robert Laurie (17551836) and James Whittle (17571818) was the existing stock of Robert Sayer's printing plates, both for maps and atlases and also decorative prints. Laurie had originally apprenticed to Robert Sayer in 1770, and made free in 1777. He was a skilled artist, who exhibited at the Society of Artists from 1770, winning a silver palette for a drawing in 1770, and he was also an accomplished engraver of mezzotint portraits and produced views and other decorative items. In about 1792 he returned to the Sayer business and took it over from the ailing Sayer in 1794. Whittle was apprenticed into the Needlemakers' Company, evidently made free by 1792, and joined with Laurie to take over the Sayer business in 1794. Laurie retired in 1812. His son Richard Holmes Laurie replaced him in the partnership and, eventually, took over the firm after Whittle's death in 1818. Presumably under the influence of Richard Holmes Laurie, the partnership became noted as chartmakers and publishers, with the business existing to the current day as Imray, Laurie, Norie and Wilson. Provenance: Early annotations in pencil recording the true position of Gaspar Island, Middle Island, and one or two unrecorded shoals.

Vauxhall Bridge Engraved print with original colour. The emphasis on 'iron' in the title of the print reflects the fact that the Vauxhall Bridge started life as a stone structure, designed by John Rennie. The Vauxhall Bridge Company aimed to create a new bridge between Battersea and Westminster, potentially opening up the area a…round Vauxhall to greater development. The scheme was headed by Ralph Dodd, an engineer and inventor who tried to build the first tunnel underneath the Thames. His involvement was cited as a reason for the initial rejection of the bridge by Parliament in 1806, and it was given the green light only after the Company promised to reimburse the owners of Battersea Bridge for any lost revenue. The project began and the foundation stone had been laid before the funding ran out, and the bridge was redesigned in cheaper iron. It was initially named after the Prince Regent, the future George IV, but quickly renamed, possibly because of the unpopularity of the profligate prince. Adams 191.29; BM 1880,1113.1234. Image: 260 by 417mm (10.25 by 16.5 inches). Sheet: 300 by 450mm (11.75 by 17.75 inches).
