1851. Babbage, Charles (1791-1871). Oval portrait in color by Sir William John Newton (1785-1869), signed and dated on the obverse by Newton ("W J Newton 1851"; obscured by the mat), inscribed "Mr. Babbage" on the reverse. 162 x 140 mm.

Set in rectangular morocco hinged case measuring 214 x 189 mm., with tooled inscription on the front cover: "Charles Babbage. 1851./by/Sir William John Newton./No. 192" (light edgewear). Fine.

The portrait is by William John Newton, miniature-painter in ordinary to Queen Victoria and one of the most fashionable miniature-painters of his day. Newton was also a pioneer in photography, devising an improved method of producing calotype negatives and promoting soft-focus photography as a means of producing artistic images.

Disbound.Tiny stab-holes in left margin, small chip in last leaf but very good. Ownership stamp of Dr. A. Nardecchia on title. First Edition. In 1853 the Swedish engineers Georg and Edvard Scheutz constructed their first successful working Difference Engine, a calculating and printing machine based on Babbage's designs and research. Babbage applauded the Scheutzes' efforts and did his best to publicize their machine, as he did in this address to the Royal Society in which he gave a brief summary of the Scheutz machine's construction, noted that it had won a gold medal at the Paris Exposition, and chided the Royal Society for failing to honor the Scheutzes in similar fashion. "Sweden has thus secured for herself the glory of having been the first nation…

Requesting Clark's help in testing a telegraphic device invented by Baggs: "We have just tried a patented telegraph instrument of mine thro' the Atlantic Cable: it gave about 300 indications per minute, but upon connecting it with the earth the action entirely ceased. We want nothing but intensity, and that in no great degree-say 40 or 50 cells Danniells. They only gave us 20 cells! Whereas I believe that under Mr. Glass's contract the use of 500 cells is the limitation. . . . " Origins of Cyberspace 114. .
