4.The plates were bought by the publisher
Baldwin, Cradock and Joy at the Boydell sale in 1818 "The Works of
William Hogarth" as published by Baldwin, Cradock and Joy in 1822
with the original plates restored by James Heath, engraver to His
Majesty. The Heath edition was the last to print directly from
Hogarth's original engraved plates. All 'Hogarth' prints appearing
after this date are merely copies with either a recut plate or the
'engravers version'
5.** Thomas Cook engraved this after
Hogarth, as illustrations in "Hogarth Restored. The Whole Works of
the celebrated William Hogarth". Published in 1806. Printed on wove
paper In good condition as per pics. The engravings were often
re-aligned on the page differing from the earlier Boydell Folio. We
have a selection of these Thomas Cook engravings after William
Hogarth's paintings. These engravings were executed and published by
Cook between 1796-1803. They are the same size as Hogarth's original
engravings, but are not from Hogarth's plates. Thus, they are
earlier engravings than the Heath edition, but they are Cook's
interpretation of Hogarth's works all suly people are rendered smiling
which for those used to the earlier editions is quite odd

Simon Lord Lovat.
Seated portrait of the incredibly ugly, elderly, reprobate Jacobite
rebel Simon Fraser 12th Baron Lovat (1667-1747). At the invitation of a
Dr. Webster, Hogarth had travelled to The White Hart Inn, St. Albans to
draw the famous rebel who had halted there briefly while on his way to
trial in London, after the failure of the '45 Rebellion. Lovat was
found guilty and executed on Tower Hill on April 9th 1747, the last
person to be beheaded in England. Hogarth shows him here seated in a
large, carved armchair, counting off on his fingers the Highland
chieftains whom he thought would fight against the Hanoverian dynasty
occupying the British throne(Heath edition, ca 1820-22) from " The
Works of William Hogarth" as published by Baldwin, Cradock and Joy
