184676371London: Longman and Co. 1846. Narrow 4to. Unpaginated 60 pp. Complete re-cased sympathetically. Light cloth blocked in gilt blue and red to upper board and in blind to lower. All edges gilt. Marks heavier to lower board though also present with rubbing to edges of upper board and light wear to corners. Short closed tear to ffep and very minor splitting to the front endpapers. Foxing mostly around edges of leaves. Beautifully decorated pages hand coloured with 3 pages per month. The manuscript from which the illuminated calendar for 1846 is reproduced was probably produced in 1380 and has been selected here as it offers a beautiful example of a style of art very different from that of the "hours" of Ann of Brittany which formed the calendar for 1845. The work opens with a preface followed by a 4-page history of the House of Anjou with some remarks on their patronage of illuminators. Humphreys was a master of illumination in the Victorian age. 28cms tall 19.5 cms wide. . Very Good. Gilt Decorated Cloth. 1846. Longman and Co. 1846 hardcover

000288Hardback. Good. Set of Byron's works in ten volumes 8vo based on the initial six-volume set published by John Murray in 1825 augmented by the two volumes published in 1824-1825 by John and Henry L Hunt and thereby identified on the title pages as "The Works . in eight volumes" and further augmented by two further volumes these last shown as "Printed for the booksellers" and consisting of cantos I-XVI of Don Juan; the final canto canto XVII was a short unfinished piece at Byron's death in 1824 and was essentially a repudiation of the views of his critics. Pagination: 8vo pp I - xi 303; II - iii 359; III - iii 345 347; IV - viii 367; V - iii 404; VI - viii i 319; VII - vi 8-308 309; VIII - i 286; IX - iii 353; X - iii 398. Engraved frontispiece of Byron after the Phillips portrait of him in conventional Western dress. Uniformly bound in tan polished calf the spines with raised bands and gilt labels. The spines of vols III and IV and the foot of the spine of vol X have suffered from some unknown but clearly incompetent attention whereby the leather has turned a very dark brown almost black in contrast to the rich dark chestnut colour of the other volumes see the accompanying photograph for more detail. There is some light foxing more prevalent on several pages in volumes VII and VIII and with some page browning in volumes IX and X and a couple of the hinges on vols III and IV are cracked along the outside although without affecting the firmness of the binding again see the relevant image. There's some evidence here and there both on the outside and in the early gutters of old water staining but that's hardly obtrusive. Essentially it's an attractively printed set well bound for private library use and marred only by the points raised above. It's not uncommon for earlier sets of works such as these to expand from an earlier planned collection as has happened here. The two Hunt volumes VII and VIII appear to be the sheets originally published as a two-volume set; they contain Werner Heaven and Earth Morgante Maggiore The Age of Bronze The Island The Vision of Judgement and The Deformed Transformed and appear here with an added title page identifying the volumes as part of now an eight-volume set of Byron's Works. The final two volumes are identified in similar style as part of the Works of Byron and as volumes IX and X but without identifying the number of volumes in the set. This may have been on account of prudence given that the satirical poem aroused a great deal of hostility on account of its "immoral content" and its criticism of contemporary literary heroes although such as Sir Walter Scott Swinburne Shelley Goethe and others thought highly of the work as it steadily appeared between 1819 and 1824. Despite the faults mentioned earlier this is a handsome set containing nearly all Byron's works. NOTE: as the complete set weighs some 6.6kg there will be a supplement needed for carriage depending on final location and method used. <br/> <br/> hardcover
