Peltro William Tomkins's original stipple engraving "An Allegorical Composition", 'In His Majesty's Collection' represents the allegory of the 'Wolf and the Eagle. It' is based upon a drawing by the Master 'Renaissance' artist Leonardo da Vinci housed in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle. This impression is printed upon early 19th century wove paper in sepia tones and it appears a light, overall wash was added to the image at the time of publication as created in 1811 by Peltro William Tomkins for John Chamberlain's set of original engravings and etchings entitled, "Original Designs of the Most Celebrated Masters of the Bolognese, Roman Florentine and Venetian Schools". It bears the text; "Leonardo di Vinci delt.", "Engrav'd by P. W. Tomkins. Engraver to her Majesty.", "In His Majesty's Collection", and the publication line, "Published April 17. 1811. by J. Chamberlaine, Scotland Yard." in the lower margin, and numbered, "PL. LVII" in the upper left corner. The image depicts a wolf-like creature steering and navigating his boat with the aid of a compass which is decorated with three fleur de lis. In the center of the boat, there is a large tree. To the right, a crowned eagled is perched upon a globe. The meaning of this allegorical drawing is uncertain, however, the most complete and authoritative books published on Leonardo da Vinci states it was presumably devised for the celebration of the marriage of Giuliano de Medici with Filiberta of Savoy. If this is so, then it is possible that the ship navigated by the wolf which in most cases, represents gluttony and corruption of all kinds, is an allusion to the church of Rome and Pope Leo X in search of world power. This is a beautiful, original example of the stipple art created by the British artist, Peltro William Tomkins and the art of Leonardo da Vinci. |

Note: | Peltro William Tomkins 'P. W. Tomkins': A well known stipple and aquatint etcher and engraver, Peltro William Tomkins studied printmaking techniques under Francesco Bartolozzi, in London. Many of P. W. Tomkins's early works were designed by Angelica Kauffman. Later, however,he was commissioned to produce engravings after the designs of such contemporaries as Robert Smirke (1753 – 1845), John Downman (1750 -1824), Henry William Bunbury (1750 – 1811), Mather Brown (1761 – 1831) and others. Peltro William Tomkins was also a major contributor to such publications as The British Gallery of Pictures published in parts by Henry Tresham and William Young Ottley (1808-1820), for a splendid edition of James Thornton’s Seasons after pictures by William Hamilton first published one season at a time (Winter 1726), (Summer, 1727), (Spring 1728), and (Autumn 1730), The Birth of Love, by Bland Burgess, from designs by the Princess Elizabeth of England first published (1752), Illustrations of Modern Scripture (1832), John Boydell's Shakespeare Gallery (1789 – 1805), John Chamberlaine's Engravings from the Original Designs of Annibale, Agostino and Ludovico Carracci, in his Majesty's Collection, and Original Designs of the Most Celebrated Masters of the Bolognese, Roman Florentine and Venetian Schools (1796 - 1812) as well as other important works from his own designs. An Allegorical Composition was engraved in 1811 and was commissioned by John Chamberlaine for Original Designs of the Most Celebrated Masters of the Bolognese, Roman Florentine and Venetian Schools. Tomkins has engraved these words; "Leonardo di Vinci delt.", "Engrav'd by P. W. Tomkins. Engraver to her Majesty.", "In His Majesty's Collection", and the publication line, "Published April 17. 1811. by J. Chamberlaine, Scotland Yard." in the lower margin, and numbered, "PL. LVII" in the upper left corner. |
Between 1803 and 1811, P. W. Tomkins was commissioned by John Chamberlaine to create original etchings, stipple engravings, and aquatints based upon drawings in the Royal Collection. Such fine works of art include, Female Head (1803), Man's Head (1806), A Figure, with Drapery (1806), and Wolf in a Boat, an Allegorical Composition (1811), all after Leonardo da Vinci; Apotheosis of St. Francis (1806) after Ludovico Carracci, David (1807) after Annibale Carracci, and two landscapes (1807) after Claude Lorrain. Leonardo da Vinci’s drawing Wolf in a Boat, an Allegorical Composition was engraved by P. W. Tomkins in 1811 and was commissioned by John Chamberlaine for Engravings from the Original Designs of Annibale, Agostino and Ludovico Carracci, in his Majesty's Collection. | |
Leonardo da Vinci: The true 'Renaissance' man, Leonardo da Vinci was an artist, an engineer and a scientist. In 1472, Leonardo da Vinci enrolled as a painter in the fraternity of St. Luke in Florence. There he served his apprenticeship with Verrocchio. He moved to Milan around 1481 and remained there until 1499, working mostly at the court of Duke Ludovico Sforza. | |
Leonardo da Vinci's completed paintings are relatively few. His numerous drawings, however, display aspects and ideas of one of the world's most astute and inventive minds. His legacy to the arts is immense for it was Leonardo who established the concept of the artist as a creative thinker and not merely a craftsman. Leonardo's, meaning for "An Allegorical Composition", is unknown. A wolf-like creature steers his boat to the shore where a crowned eagle or griffin is perched upon a globe. In the center of the boat a large tree grows. | |
Allegorical Drawing of The Wolf and The Eagle: Leonardo da Vinci's allegorical drawing of the wolf and the eagle was created around 1515. It is now housed in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle no. 12496. The image depicts a wolf-like creature steering and navigating his boat with the aid of a compass which is decorated with three fleur de lis. In the center of the boat, there is a large tree. To the right, a crowned eagled is perched upon a globe. The meaning of this allegorical drawing is uncertain and there have been many interpretations, however, the most complete and authoritative books published on Leonardo da Vinci states it was presumably devised for the celebration of the marriage of Giuliano de Medici with Filiberta of Savoy which took place in 1515. * Leonardo Da Vinci: An Artabras Book, Reynal and Company in association with William Morrow and Company, New York, 1978, p. 165. If this is so, then it is possible that the ship navigated by the wolf which in most cases, represents gluttony and corruption of all kinds, is an allusion to the church of Rome and Pope Leo X search of world power. The eagle wearing the crown could well represent Francis I, the King of France and his political aspirations. The compass decorated with three fleur de lis could indicate the wolf is headed for France. The tree in the center of the boat could represent the tree of life or if it is an olive tree, it is alluding to the alliance between France and Italy through marriage. Giuliano de Medici (1479-1516) was an Italian nobleman and a prominent member of Italy’s most powerful family. He was the son of Lorenzo the Magnificent and brother of Pope Leo X. In 1515, the same year he was married, Giuliano de Medici was invested by Francis I, King of France with the title of Duke of Nemours. Filiberta of Savoy (1498-1524), was the Marchioness of Gex and Lady Fossano, daughter of Philip II, Duke of Savoy and Claudine de Brosse-Pentheivre, aunt of Francis I, the King of France and descendant of the house of Bourbon. | |
An original stipple engraving printed on early 19th century toned wove paper, "An Allegorical Composition, 'In His Majesty's Collection'" is engraved entirely in sepia tones, and it appears a light, overall wash was added to the image at the time of publication. This stipple is based upon a drawing by the Master 'Renaissance' artist, Leonardo da Vinci housed in England's Royal Collection at Windsor Castle. It was created by Peltro William Tomkins in 1811 for John Chamberlain, curator to his Majesty's Collection and published in the set of original engravings and etchings entitled, Original Designs of the Most Celebrated Masters of the Bolognese, Roman Florentine and Venetian Schools". Bearing the text; "Leonardo di Vinci delt.", "Engrav'd by P. W. Tomkins. Engraver to her Majesty.", "In His Majesty's Collection.", and the publication line, "Published April 17. 1811. by J. Chamberlaine, Scotland Yard."; in the lower margin, and numbered, "PL. LVII" in the upper left corner. An Allegorical Composition, 'In His Majesty's Collection' represents a beautiful, original example of the stipple art of Peltro William Tomkins. | |
John Chamberlaine (British, c. 1745 - 1812): In February, 1791, John Chamberlaine (London, 1745 - 1812) was appointed Keeper of Drawings and Medals to the King. As curator to his Majesty's Collection, Chamberlaine's greatest achievement was to publish engravings and etchings based upon these famous old master acquisitions. Between March, 1792 and February, 1800, John Chamberlaine published eighty-four stipple engravings based upon Holbein's portrait drawings. All but four of these engravings were created by Francesco Bartolozzi, who held the title of, 'Historical Engraver to his Majesty'. | |
In 1796, John Chamberlaine initiated another important set of engravings based upon drawings in the Royal Collection, entitled, "Imitations of Original Designs by Leonardo da Vinci". The engravers for this series were Francesco Bartolozzi and his followers. The following year, John Chamberlaine began his final set under the title of, "Engravings from the Original Designs of Annibale, Agostino and Ludovico Carracci, in his Majesty's Collection". In the following years this last set was expanded to include engravings based upon the designs of other old masters, such as, Raphael 'Raffaello Santi', Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonaroti, Claude Lorrain, Nicolas Poussin, Leonardo da Vinci, Giovanni Antonio Canal 'Canaletto' and other major artist. For this opus, John Chamberlaine commissioned such leading engravers as Francesco Bartolozzi (1727 - 1815), Luigi Schiavonetti (1765 - 1810), Frederick Christian Lewis (1779 - 1856), Peltro William Tomkins (1760 - 1840) and others to worked upon this project. | |
The engravings for the 1796 "Imitations of Original Designs by Leonardo da Vinci" and the 1797 "Engravings from the Original Designs of Annibale, Agostino and Ludovico Carracci, in his Majesty's Collection", were both completed in 1812. At this point John Chamberlaine combined the two sets under the general title of "Original Designs of the Most Celebrated Masters of the Bolognese, Roman Florentine and Venetian Schools". Taking eighteen years to complete, the entire series consisted of sixty-six plates, with the exception of a few sets which contained additional plates (not listed in the index), and bearing the publication date of 1795 or 1796. In order to simulate varying drawing methods, the artists used a wide ranging array of printmaking techniques such as stippling, soft ground etching and aquatinting, often employing either separately printed color plates or hand-coloring. As a result, some of the most complex and technically accomplished etchings and engravings of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries are found within this scarce and monumental collection. An Allegorical Composition, 'In His Majesty's Collection' (Allegory of the Wolf and the Eagle) hails from this set. Bearing the text; "Leonardo di Vinci delt.", "Engrav'd by P. W. Tomkins. Engraver to her Majesty.", "In His Majesty's Collection", and the publication line, "Published April 17. 1811. by J. Chamberlaine, Scotland Yard." in the lower margin, and numbered, "PL. LVII" in the upper left corner. The British Museum includes an impression of this original aquatint. Registration number: 1925,0422.2.52. | |
