1856WRCAM54032New York: Eliphalet M. Brown Jr. 1856. Six lithographs with integral descriptions and titles to the six plates all within an elaborate decorative border including vignettte scenes and portraits of places and people encountered on the expedition six lithographic plates printed in colors and finished by hand by J. Sarony & Co. 4 Boell & Lewis 1 and Boell & Michelin 1 all after Heine. Title leaf not present as usual. Elephant folio. Individually matted and framed. One print with repaired closed tears slightly affecting image. Occasional faint marginal foxing and dust soiling. Very good. Magnificent and very rare example of Heine's elephant folio-sized lithographic record of six lithographs illustrating the opening of Japan under Commodore Matthew Perry. In scale scope and quality of execution this is arguably the finest lithographic work ever produced in the United States and is among the rarest of all American color plate books. <br> <br> William Heine was the official artist on Commodore Matthew C. Perry's expedition to Japan in 1853-54. On returning to the United States he produced several series of prints commemorating the trip the first the greatest and the rarest of which is the present group consisting of a titlepage and six plates. These were overseen by the expedition's daguerreotypist Eliphalet Brown who was also an excellent artist and lithographer - he designed and drew the spectacular titlepage. The total number of sets of printed is not known but it is recorded that Brown gave 100 sets to Commodore Perry for distribution to members of the expedition. The number of sets sold to the public has not been established but was undoubtedly small. One of the reasons for the rarity of the complete set is that the plates were printed over two years by three publishers. Individual prints are occasionally encountered particularly the four printed in 1855 by Sarony of New York but the two other plates are much scarcer and were accomplished by different lithographers Boell & Lewis and Boell & Michelin. <br> <br> A secondary reason for the rarity of this set is the initial cost. It was significantly more expensive than Heine's GRAPHIC SCENES OF THE JAPAN EXPEDITION a much smaller folio published in the same year as the final plate: the popularity of this smaller set ensured that only very few of the magnificent larger sets were ever sold. The set consists of the following prints: <br> <br> 1 "Passing the Rubicon. Lieut. S. Bent in the 'Mississippi's' First Cutter Forcing his way through a Fleet of Japanese Boats while Surveying the Bay of Yedo Japan July 11th 1853." Printed by Sarony & Co dated 1855. <br> <br> 2 "First Landing of Americans in Japan. Under Commodore M.C. Perry at Gore-Hama July 14th 1853." Printed by Sarony & Co dated 1855. This print is the most dramatic of the series showing the first landing of Perry on Japanese soil. Through a flotilla of American landing barges with the ships' complement of Marines drawn up on the beach Perry proceeds to meet a Japanese delegation while Japanese troops ring in the Americans. In the foreground are two Japanese official launches and two Japanese officials stand in the right foreground. Perry's steamboats can be seen lying under steam in the left corner. <br> <br> 3 "Landing of Commodore Perry Officers & Men of the Squadron to Meet the Imperial Commissioners at Yoku-Hama Japan March 8th 1854." Printed by Sarony & Co dated 1855. <br> <br> 4 "Landing of Commodore Perry Officers & Men of the Squadron to Meet the Imperial Commissioners at Simoda Japan June 8 1854." Printed by Sarony & Co dated 1855. <br> <br> 5"Return of Commodore Perry Officers & Men of the Squadron from an Official Visit to the Prince Regent at Shui Capitol of Lew Chew June 6th 1853." Printed by Boell & Lewis dated 1855. <br> <br> 6 "Exercise of Troops in Temple Grounds Simoda Japan in Presence of the Imperial Commissioners June 8th 1854." Printed by Boell & Michelin dated 1856. <br> <br> This set of the Heine prints belonged to Major Robert Smith John Rodgers son of Commodore John Rodgers of War of 1812 fame and hung in his fine mansion on a hilltop outside of Havre de Grace Maryland.

P4884Neapoli i.e. Bern: Presso Giacomo Palpiri i.e. V. I. Bakst 1863. Octavo 17.8 à 11 cm. Recent paper-covered card binding; part of front wrapper affixed to front board; 5 109 pp. Internally very good. First complete Russian translation of Heine's "Das Buch Le Grand" 1927. The work had been previously published in Russia but as the translator notes with significant cuts by the censor which greatly distorted Heine's humor and wit. Originally published in 1927 "Das Buch Le Grand" was the second of Heine's "Reisebilder". It is a work which embraces the spirit of Napoleon and the French Revolution and it served to cement his reputation as a witty leader among liberal German writers. It was This new edition was published in Bern Switzerland using a fictitious imprint at the printer's shop of V. I. Bakst founded in 1862 to satisfy a growing need for revolutionary and other illegal materials which could not be printed in Russia. Bakst was also instrumental in setting up a St. Petersburg illegal typography in 1862. A somewhat censored and shortened edition of Mainov's translation appeared in Moscow the same year. Ironically given Heine's own issues with censorship and his literary fate in nineteenth-century Russia this translation reproduces the fictitious censored passage in the original in which Heine composed a paragraph of dashes leaving only the words "The German censors. Idiots." KVK OCLC only show the copies at Humboldt Universität SLUB Dresden and Universitätsbibliothek J. C. Senckenberg. Not at the Russian State or National Libraries. unknown books
