Alexander Lawson, engraver, died in 1846, leaving behind a great quantity of his own and other artist's work. His daughters, Malvinia and Mary, constructed a scrapbook filled with these artworks, which they donated to the Academy. The scrapbook contains 532 prints, drawings, and watercolors illustrating natural history and scientific books or periodicals, including zoological, ornithological and medical illustrations, as well as technical illustrations and illustration for novels and histories. The engravings cover a wide variety of subject matter, such as ornithology, mollusks, medicine and chemistry, poetry and literature, history, engineering and architecture.

Alexander Lawson was born December 19, 1772, at Raven-stuther, a village in Lanarkshire, Scotland. An orphan at fifteen, he moved to Liverpool to be raised by an older brother. He discovered a love of illustration at an early age, and had a graver made from a picture he saw in a book, with which he taught himself to engrave.

Lawson hoped to visit France where he could learn the refinements of French engraving techniques from the artists he admired, as well as to join in the French political climate and help in their fight for freedom. However, France, was closed to British subjects, so he sailed to the United States instead, arriving in Baltimore, Md. in May of 1792. He immediately liked the U.S. because of the freedom of speech and action it afforded, and settled in Philadelphia as it was the seat of the government at that time. He worked for Thackara & Vallance as an engraver for 2 years, before starting his own practice. His first works after going into business for himself were plates for an edition of The Seasons by James Thomson. Later he formed a partnership with John James Barralet, which was eventually dissolved.

In 1798, Lawson formed a friendship with Alexander Wilson, the creator of American Ornithology. It was Lawson who offered Wilson drawing lessons and encouraged him to draw. When Wilson approached Lawson in March of 1804 with his intention to publish his ornithological studies and drawings, Lawson hesitated with taking on the engraving on the grounds that it was too expensive for Wilson to handle. Not to be discouraged, Wilson showed up at Lawson's house with a copper plate that he intended to etch himself. He had Lawson ground the plate, and asked for an etching needle. Lawson narrates that the next day Wilson bounded into the room exclaiming that he had finished the plate and wished to bite it with the aqua fortis immediately. The result (item 2:65) was displeasing to him, and Wilson realized he would have to hire a professional engraver. A few months later Wilson found a publisher to assist with his undertaking, and Lawson agreed to engrave the plates. It was for the ornithology that Lawson engraved the best plates, and he contributed to the continuation of this work by Charles Lucien Bonaparte, after Wilson's death.

In 1805 Lawson married Elizabeth DeScaife. He had 5 children: Malvina, Helen Elizabeth, Catharine, Mary and Oscar A. Oscar and Helen both worked with Lawson, making drawings for him to engrave. They also exhibited artwork of various mediums in Philadelphia. Oscar went on to become a professional engraver for the U.S. Coast Survey. Helen illustrated several scientific publications, and later in life was nominated as secretary of the Franklin Institute's School of Design for Women. Alexander Lawson died on August 22, 1846, continuing to work until 2 days before his death.

Lawson's friend, Samuel Stehman Haldeman, suggested that the scrapbook be compiled after Lawson's death in 1846. Two of Lawson's daughters, Malvinia and Mary, assembled them from the works left in Lawson's effects.

A collection of 532 prints, drawings, and watercolors, which includes ca. 400 engravings and etchings by Philadelphia engraver Alexander Lawson. The prints illustrate natural history and scientific books or periodicals, including zoological, ornithological and medical illustrations, as well as technical illustrations and illustration for poetry, novels and histories. The engravings cover a wide variety of subject matter, such as natural history, (particularly ornithology and mollusca), medicine and chemistry, industry, engineering and architecture, Mexican history, Christianity, and mythology.

Most of the prints were illustrations for specific books or articles. Not of all of the prints have been identified as belonging to particular works, but those that have are noted with the an abbreviation of the title (as follows in the list).

Title taken from 1:25b.

The Oto Council was painted at Council Bluffs, Iowa, on the west bank of the Missouri River where Long's party camped for the winter of 1819-1820. The council took place on October 4 between the explorers and a group of about one hundred Otos, seventy Missouris, and fifty Iowas. The friendly Indians presented the American officers with handsom robes of buffalo and white wolf skin. In return, they received medals, blankets, kettles, and whiskey. The Indians had never heard artillery before, but according to witnesses, when the Americans fired a howitzer salute, not a single tribesman blinked.
