160275949Anvers Antwerp: Jean MoretusEx officina plantiniana apud Ioannem Moretum 1602. Fine. Jean Moretus Ex officina plantiniana apud Ioannem Moretum Anvers Antwerp 1602 8.20 x 12.60 cm relié New Plantin press editions in portable format of these three works. Ruled throughout in red ink. Copy with the arms of Nicolas de Villars clerical councillor at the Parlement of Paris and treasurer of the Sainte-Chapelle later bishop of Agen. Contemporary full soft brown morocco a fanfare binding with the rare Duodo-type decoration: smooth spine gilt with six medallions each containing a flower gilt foliage border covers fully gilt with 24 medallions some emblematic sun heart acorn bouquet sheaf of wheat arms stamped in the centre edges gilt. Discreet restorations to joints corners and headcaps; upper and lower borders with minor wear to leather 0.5 cm; lacking ties; pinhole at head of spine. From the first title-leaf a wormhole in the lower margin extending through to the final leaves of the Fables of Aesop gradually diminishing. A magnificent copy of the utmost rarity. The singular decoration of this style of binding representing one of the pinnacles of the art of French bookbinding is today identified as Duodo after Pierre Duodo Venetian ambassador to Paris from 1594 to 1597. About 150 small volumes were uniformly bound for a portable library only part now known probably towards the end of his stay. It is unlikely he ever enjoyed these treasures which fell into oblivion for nearly two centuries. When they reappeared on the English market at the end of the eighteenth century they were mistakenly attributed to Marguerite de Valois an error that persisted until the 1920s. Although the name Duodo remains attached to this style of decoration another great collector commissioned similar bindings: Nicolas de Villars bishop of Agen. Duodos bindings are now well identified while those of Nicolas de Villars are considerably rarer on the market. While the spine here is very close to the Duodo examples with flowers and foliage borders though in a finer and denser design the covers show 24 medallions compared to only 14 on Duodo bindings and the tools employed are not limited to floral motifs but include a variety of emblems such as the sun and the heart.

1840173764Canton: Canton Press Office 1840. The first full Chinese translation of Aesop's Fables First edition association copy inscribed by William Jardine one of the three "generous patrons" named in the dedication on the front wrapper "R. Goff Esqr. 105 Piccadilly from the compiler with Mr. Jardine's compliments". Jardine 1784-1843 co-founded the successful trading firm Jardine Matheson & Co. and held significant sway over the course of Anglo-Chinese relations either side of the First Opium War. This Chinese translation was intended as a primer to help the growing number of British students of Chinese working for Jardine Matheson the East India Company and other concerns in Canton. Robert Thom 1807-46 who adopted the pen-name "Sloth" honed his language skills while working for Jardine's and acted as a translator for British forces during the First Opium War 1839-42 and at the 1843 Supplementary Treaty negotiations. He was later British consul at Ningbo. Each page offers three columns of English Chinese characters and romanized Chinese. For each fable Thom dictated the Chinese to his teacher who brushed them in a legible hand. According to the introduction the volume was the first time Chinese wooden blocks and European metal type were used side-by-side during printing. Thom's translation was later reprinted in various modified editions by the Anglo-Chinese College the Shanghai Free Hospital and the Wenyutang Chinese Printing and Publishing Company. This edition is well represented institutionally but is uncommon in commerce - we have traced only five appearances at auction in the past six decades. Of these only one retained both of the original wrappers as here. Provenance: Robert Goff 1801-1866 was an antiquarian who travelled widely in the Middle East and Asia presenting a collection of Egyptian antiquities to the British Museum in 1847. This copy was later in the Bibliotheca Lindesiana one of the most impressive private collections of the 19th century its bookplate is on the front pastedown. Alexander Lindsay 1812-80 later 25th Earl of Crawford and 8th Earl of Balcarres met Goff while the latter was travelling and at the sale of Goff's art collection in 1866 Quaritch acquired a collection of Chinese drawings and sold these to Lindsay. This copy entered the Lindsay library either via Quaritch or via the dispersal of the Goff library in the 1890s. It is recorded in the 1910 Bibliotheca Lindesiana catalogue. Quarto 295 x 202 mm. With engraving of Chinese character styles furnished by Elijah Coleman Bridgman the compiler of the Canton Chrestomathy. Late 19th-century brown hard-grain half morocco by Henry Wood raised bands ruled in gilt spine lettered in gilt Papier Tourniquet-pattern sides marbled endpapers with design of Spanish moiré on Turkish with overprinted gold vein pattern top edge gilt original yellow printed wrappers bound in. Binding a little worn corners and extremities recoloured light foxing neat tissue repairs at foot of wrappers and title page loss at lower corner of p. 103 a few tide marks to fore edges: a very good copy.
