WORKS. P. VIRGILIUS MARO: IN USUM SCHOLARUM / AD NOVISSIMAM HEYNII EDITIONEM EXACTUS

1809ST12251Londini: Impensis J. Johnson et al. 1809. 248 x 146 mm. 9 3/4 x 5 3/4". 2 p.l. 700 pp.With commentary by Christian Gottlob Heyne. HANDSOME CONTEMPORARY NAVY BLUE STRAIGHT-GRAIN MOROCCO DENSELY GILT covers with thick and thin gilt rule border and large central laurel wreath that on the front with the Latin motto "Honoris Causa" "For the sake of honor" that on the rear with the name Thomas T. Churton and the date 1817 raised bands spine lavishly gilt in compartments filled with foliage and small tools emanating from a central fleuron gilt titling and turn-ins all edges gilt. WITH A SPLENDID LATER PAINTING OF MOUNT ETNA ON THE FORE EDGE. In a recent plush-lined blue folding cloth box with gilt spine titling. With ink stamp of Bolton Public Library on verso of title and first page of text. Lowndes IV 2777. Corners slightly bumped boards a little faded first two gatherings mildly foxed isolated rust spots or faint freckled foxing but still AN ESPECIALLY DESIRABLE COPY the handsome binding virtually unworn the text clean and smooth and the unusual fore-edge painting very well preserved. This scholarly edition of Heyne's acclaimed Virgil comes in a fine contemporary binding with a noteworthy fore-edge painting. Dibdin Gibbon and Sandys all praise Heyne's edition of Virgil and Sandys credits him with being "the first who with any decisiveness attempted . . . to read in the writings of the Ancients not their language alone or even their detached opinions and records but their spirit and character their way of life and thought." First published in Leipzig in 1767-88 Heyne's edition was deemed "incomparable" by Dibdin and even inspired a poem by William Cowper "On Receiving Heyne's Virgil from Mr. Hayley." Our painting shows a coastal landscape in Sicily rendered in strong greens and deep blues. There is a bay on the left and a tiny village perched above the sandy beach with white-capped Mount Etna emitting a thin wisp of smoke in the background. Purplish clouds are gathering in the distance which combined with the smoking volcano lend a frisson of foreboding to an otherwise tranquil scene. As often the age of the painting is difficult to determine: not the work of any recognizable painter it is very probably not as old as the binding yet is almost certainly not something done during the last 100 years. In any case the quality of its execution is high and the subject matter--which is something quite different from the typical fore-edge design--is entirely appropriate for the classical contents of the book. The attractive binding indicates a milestone in the life of its owner Thomas Townson Churton 1798-1865. The phrase "Honoris Causa" on a 19th century binding or bookplate is often found in conjunction with an academic prize being granted and in 1817 Churton then a top student at Rugby School was awarded a prestigious "leaving exhibition" to support his further education which he duly started the same year at Brasenose College Oxford. He was one of only two students in his year granted the full seven-year exhibition funding that was more than sufficient to support undergraduate studies and beyond at the university. In keeping with the content of the book at hand and with the subject of its fore-edge painting Churton was a classicist and he excelled at Oxford as he had at Rugby being elected Dean of Brasenose in 1828 and being a Fellow from 1821 to 1852. Not emblazoned with the Rugby arms this exceedingly fine binding was possibly commissioned privately perhaps by family to commemorate Churton's superb performance at Rugby and in hopes of a bright future at Oxford.

Historical Illustrations of the fourth canto of Childe Harold: containing dissertations on the ruins of Rome; and an essay on Italian literature. Second edition revised and corrected.

1818FF2535London:: John Murray 1818. 1818. 8vo. viii 576 pp. Original full double gilt-ruled vellum gilt embellished spine olive-brown morocco spine label all edges gilt red endleaves. Fine copy. With a glorious fore-edge painting on the painted edge by the Dover painter of "King's College Chapel Cambridge" and labeled in the artist's ink hand. The artist is known to have worked in the 1920s and 1930s in London thus it is interesting to note that there are two notations with dates: a dated inscription in the back E.H.W. 25/3/31 March 25 1931 $85. - with a cost code showing B/-/- over B/H/E. Surely an indication that this was painted by March 1931 and offered for sale by an American bookseller for $85. The label shown for the painting also has a code: 116/1/24 which looks like a code/date - if a date then the year would be 1924. This is very much within this artist's time period of activity.

GATHERING OF LITERATI SCHOLARS AND PAINTERS: Painted in the Nanga Style

36047501Japan ca. 1800. Kakemono hanging scroll: size 66.4 x 1m.26 painting size: 54.5 x 41.7 cm. an excellent example brush signed by the artist with his red Hanko seal beautifully mounted on brocade silk DeLuxe size. A RARE EXAMPLE . . . . AN EXCEPTIONALLY FINE ORIGINAL PAINTED SCROLL . . . A TRIBUTE TO TANI BUNCHO . . . JAPAN'S MOST CELEBRATED PAINTER . . . CONSIDERED ONE OF JAPAN'S BEST 10 ARTISTS OF ALL TIME . . A TRIBUTE TO THE ARTIST TOSA Mitsunari 1646-1710: This painting is a later tribute to Tani Bucho. . WHO WAS TANI BUNCHO PAINTER & POET 1763-1840: Buncho was a Japanese painter who founded an eclectic school influenced by Chinese Japanese and Western styles. . Buncho was an the most famous of Japan's Bunjin literati painters and poets of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. . He was the son of the respected Samurai-poet TANI Rokkoku 1729-1809 retainers to the Tayasu family descendents of the Tokugawa Shogun. . ARTISTIC STUDY: Bunsho first studied first with under KATO Bunrei 1706-82 a master of the Kano school stressing Chinese themes & techniques. After Bunrei's death Buncho worked with school masters such literati painter KITAYAMA Kangen 1767-1801 where he developed a broad stylistic range. He continued with a painter of the Hoku-ga or Northern school of Chinese art. . He was also influenced by Nan-ga The Southern school of Chinese art also known in Japanese as the Bunjin-ga or "Literati Painting" as well as of Yamato-e traditional Japanese paintings of scenes from daily life. He founded a new school of painting called "Nanboku Goitsu" or "The South and East school" and he introduced the use of Western perspective a technique further refined by his most famous pupil Watanabe Kazan. . His technique was outstanding and his knowledge of Chinese Japanese and European art had a major influence on him. Extracted from Encyclopedia Britannica see below. . . BUNCHO'S STYLES OF PAINTING: Buncho is best known for his literati style "Nanga" a a Japanese interpretation of Chinese paintings. And "Bunjin-ga" or literati idealized landscapes. Unlike other contemporary "Bunjin-ga" painters Buncho was an exceptionally eclectic artist painting idealized Chinese landscapes our example Japanese examples based on real places and poetically-inspired traditional scenery. . PORTRAITS: He painted portraits of his contemporaries such as Ono Ranzan and Kimura Kenkado as well as imagined images of such famous Chinese literati and historic heroes as Su Shi and Tao Yuan-ming. . TRAVEL AND EXPOSURE: During his lifetime Buncho like all Japanese were not allowed to travel abroad being forbidden by the Tokugawa Shogunate. He did however spent many years traveling throughout Japan eventually going to Nagasaki. . NAGASAKI EXPOSURE TO CHINESE & DUTCH ART: In Nagasaki Bunsho saw Dutch imported Chinese classic painting manuals like the Ten Bamboo & Mustard Seed Garden. During his sojourn in Nagasaki he studied under a Chinese painter. While there His studied the "Nagasaki School" as well as "Dutch Painting" styles and was exposed to other imported European art works "You-Ga" were a major influence on his painting techniques and career. See Murase p.374 below. . HIS DISCIPLES: Watanabe Kazan Sakai Hoitsu and Takaku Aigai were among his disciples. One of his most famous pupils was the renowned painter Okuhara Seiko. Above liberally extracted & re-edited from Wikipedia see below. . "NANGA" OR LITERATI SCROLL SUBJECTS: . The subject portrays some of the typical literati-style "Yama to Mizu" "Mountains & Water" or "Shan-Sui" in Chinese stylized water & landscape features. Lovely examples of unique mountains waterfalls landscapes groups of scholars or literati Bunjin/intellectuals at their favorite pastimes. . The Literati are reading writing poetry painting carrying books & scrolls discussing arguing debating the literary and salient artistic points. . The top of the scroll painting begins with some very lovely and attractive mountains with evergreen trees. There is also a fast downward flowing river which originates behind the upper-most green and brown mountains. . At the upper right is a waterfall which creates its own tributary river joining the larger river flow. Along the shores on both sides are groups of literati. They are engaged in reading writing poems reflecting inspired by the stunning landscape and lavish scenery. . There is a small pavilion on the right shore adjacent to a forest with lush-green trees. In the pavilion appears a grand-master literati seated before his writing desk with ink stone brush and paper at the ready. He is accompanied by two attendants in the background and a young child carrying a bowl of food. He has an excellent view of the other scholars on both sides of the river and the activities of other groups just below him. . The small groups of scholars and literati are reading recitations writing or discussing. Some carry books tied by silken cords suspended over their shoulders. Most all are engaged in some form of artistic or literary activity some carry books and scrolls. . At the bottom left where the artist's brushed signature and red cinnabar Hanko seal/chop appears there is a small bridge over the river. A young disciple carries a long paper rolled into a scroll just behind two elder scholars and literate who are about to cross the bridge. Above them are some pairs of literati pouring over scrolls large papers and blue-bound books. Nearby above them is a young disciple who carries two large sets of similar blue-bound books in cases over his shoulder tied with a white silk cloth. He attends to the two elder literati above and to his right. They also carry identical blue-bound sets of books. . Above this young disciple noted above we see other groups of young disciples attending the elder literati to their rear. These young people also carry more books a red bound text and his companion a brown bound book. . The painting shows a lively and large group of scholars and literati with their disciples and attendants at what appears to be an extraordinary grand yet unnamed meeting and celebration. The majority of the those present are actively engaged in literary or artistic activities. . Though there is no text the visual graphic messages convey the story the artist created. . Scholars and painters have come together to create write share discuss and argue the finer points of poetry literature and paintings. Although we can not find or read any of the creations held in member hands based on the stunning landscape and festive mood on the faces of the participants one can assume the reason for this gathering is to share their thoughts & compositions with their community. . THE MEANING OF THE GATHERING OF SCHOLARS & PAINTERS IS REVEALED: A fascinating and illuminating article reveals who the people are in this scroll painting. . Per the above please see Paget's article citation below where she talks about "Buncho's circle." . She states: ".collaborative works and other objects give intimations of the creative exchange and gregarious atmosphere of Buncho's extensive circle which encompassed such cultural luminaries as Sakai Hoitsu 1761-1828 Kameda Bosai 1752-1826 and Kimura Kenkado 1736-1802" all of whom were part of his "extensive circle." . From this article we can derive the meaning of our painting which clearly represents the "creative exchange and gregarious atmosphere of Buncho's extensive circle." His "extensive circle.with "cultural luminaries" that he thought worthy of executing "collaborative works" with. Who would challenge this idea given the large number of "cultural luminaries" portrayed in this painting. . We can firmly understand who the large numbers of literati were. They are his colleagues his "cultural luminaries" and "collaborators" who shared in the production of some of his paintings. In this painting Buncho faithfully and expertly illustrates his respect for and to honor to his fellow "master painters" from his "extensive circle" and "Bunjin" genre. . SIZE AND FORMAT: DELUX GRAND SIZE PAINTING: . This is an extraordinary wide and long hand-painted Kakejiku hanging scroll in full vivid color. . The scroll overall is 1 m. 2 cm. wide. The painting is 87 cm. wide. . The length of the entire scroll is 2 m. 26 cm. long. The painting is 1 m. 69.2 cm. long. . THE ELEGANT & STUNNING SCROLL MOUNTING: . SKILLED WORK OF A MASTER HYOGUSHI: . The work is superbly elegantly and lavishly mounted by a master Hyogushi a scroll maker using the finest contemporary materials of the highest quality. . Stunning contemporary period gold-brocade silk is used at the top sides and bottom. Use of this extravagant and superbly elegant high-quality silk is indicative of very important and high-value painting. This use of lavish embroideries and materials show appropriate respect and honor to TANI Buncho's painting. . Gold-silk textiles of this high quality and caliber were hand-woven and took great skill to create. . The scroll ends Jiku are "Zogejiku" or ivory of the highest quality. . Add to the above the use of a great and skilled master Hyogushi to mount all of the precious materials. This results in a stunningly beautiful elegant and marvelous mounting. The mounting combines with the superb painting to celebrate the master work by the celebrated TANI Buncho. . CONDITION: The Painting: The painting is in excellent condition with lively colors and no damage or issues. There is a small scratch just near the signature and artist's seal. Otherwise an excellent example. The verso remains clean without mark or issues. . The Kakejiku or Hanging Scroll Mounting: The gold-silk brocade is original and has some of the usual surface rubbing. The lower cloth at the bottom by the "Jiku" lower roll hinge has some wear and is restored from the verso. There is also a bit of wear to a small place that covers part of the Jiku where there are loose threads. There are no other major issues which detract greatly from the mounting. . KIRI BAKO: THE CRYPTOMERIA PAULOWNIA WOOD CUSTOM BOX: This Kakejiku is contained in a lovely Kiri box with black lacquered edges on the top. The box is nicely intact and in very good to excellent condition. There are a few of the usual very minor bumps dings and other colorless marks typical of the attrition to such soft-wood boxes from a bygone era. . It has two typical convex cradles to hold the Jiku scroll ends at each end. The cover closes tightly omitting air and insects. The scroll has been housed in its container since 1952. The box has properly protected the contents for which it was designed. . The age of the box is difficult to determine it has bamboo pegs instead of metal nails which again is typical of Kiri boxes from early periods. The top lid/cover has no artist or title brushed on it and likewise the "Gedai" exterior scroll author/title slip does not indicate a title or artist. An educated guess is the box was made about 1850-1900. . PRECIOUS PROTECTION: It has been a Japanese custom for centuries to place precious objects of all varieties in Kiri boxes. Because of Japan's sultry and high-humidity weather in addition to a large number of paper-loving insects Kiri Bako has protected vulnerable items like silk clothing paper books paintings scrolls and others from the ravages and attrition rate. Items of innate value were and are still placed in Kiri Bako. . REFERENCES: .

Special copy in trial binding for the author in full navy-blue straight grain morocco spine with gilt title all edges gilt navy cloth felt-lined slip-case each bound by David Weinstein for Jeff Weber. Unique deluxe format for copy #1. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR AND BINDER. Fine. C330/046 ONE OF 3 COPIES with fore-edge paintings by Martin Frost the painting inspired by the history of John T. Beer his life and work. The regular edition was limited to 210 copies printed by the Castle Press Pasadena. Those copies were bound in blue cloth. This copy is the most deluxe form of the edition. / Forty years after the second edition of Professor Carl J. Weber's book Fore-edge Painting; an historical survey Second edition 1966 his grandson antiquarian bookseller Jeff Weber has written a book that puts an end to the phrase: "Carl Weber's book is the only book written on fore-edge painting." This new book provides new and complete insight into the history of John T. Beer's fore-edge paintings and generally a new approach to studying and discovering the factual history of this unique form of book decoration. The book revises and enlivens the history of John T. Beer's remarkable fore-edge painting work. /What was the history of Beer's fore-edge paintings Was he a private collector who painted on his own books or did he paint on books from his family's library When did he do these paintings Where was he How many pieces did he paint What were the patterns of his work and how can one identify his work After more than 100 years of his passing is it possible to find out and build a catalogue raisonné of his work Meaning: is it possible to reconstruct a full catalogue of all his known works their distribution and histories from 1903 to the present Why is finding all this out important Indeed all of these points are key in this book the first full account of a fore-edge painter. The bibliographic puzzle of this man and his work was answered by a lot of sleuthing. After more than 30 years of effort and thanks to many disparate sources this book now handles Beer's work seriously and uncovers the work of a remarkable mind. For me the moment of coup de grace was learning the exact date and source that Beer bought some of his books then painted on the edges and then in 1903 he sold his library just as he was also about to die. / In addition the book offers a beginner's guide to fore-edge painting. The ABC's of Fore-edge Painting is a brief account of what the basics are in fore-edge painting. Every collector will want to have a chance to understand the language and art of fore-edge paintings.

The Departure Second Class & The Return First Class 2

185711291857. Mixed method engraving. A pair of mixed method engravings published by Gambart and Co. in 1857 in a declared edition of 225 pairs. The original paintings were exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1854. In the first picture the scene is the interior of a second class railway carriage with hard unpadded wooden benches. A young mother plainly dressed in a black coat bonnet and shawl clutches the hand of her young son who is evidently on his way to Portsmouth to join the service of the East India Company a recruiting poster is pasted to the wall above his head. His tearful sister sits on the bench opposite next to her brother's baggage a sailor is traveling with his wife in the background numerous posters advertising ship passages to Australia and India and other advertisements are stuck to the walls and ships in the harbour are visible through the carriage window. In the second picture the young man now considerably older has returned to England evidently having made his fortune. He sits in backview in a comfortably upholstered first class carriage wearing smart military uniform chatting to an elderly well dressed fellow passenger while exchanging glances with the old man's pretty fashionably dressed young daughter who sits demurely crocheting in a corner of the carriage. Abraham Solomon was a popular London artist and Simmons was a notable mezzotint engraver. The Departure has some faint spotting lower right corner in margin faint indentation in title area and repaired tear in margin outside the platemark on right hand side. The Return has a repaired tear on left hand side which enters the image about 4cm. It also has a repaired tear in top margin outside image area but within platemark. unknown
