House of Lords Gillray Collection

House of Lords Gillray Collection

I have just completed a checklist of the eleven volumes of prints by Gillray (and a few other artists) in the House of Lords. The collection was given to the House by the important Victorian collector Sir William Augustus Fraser (1826-1898). The prints were compiled late but Fraser knew what he was doing and the collection has yielded a number of rarities and one drawing. The list should be available on the web before the end of the year.
