51-4296Circa 1860-1870. Cartes-de-visite 4x2⅜" of soldier posing against a column prop appearing to be in a Zouave uniform which has been completely hand colored along with the photograph prop and background. Enclosed in a brass mat and preserver inserted into half of a Quarter plate 4¼x3¼" case embossed with a delicate grape cluster motif.During the Civil War numerous Zouave regiments were organized from soldiers of the United States of America who adopted the name and the North African–inspired uniforms during the American Civil War. The Union army had more than seventy volunteer Zouave regiments throughout the conflict while the Confederates fielded about twenty-five Zouave companies.The Zouave uniform was sometimes quite elaborate to the extent of being unwieldy. Some Zouave regiments wore a tight fitting short jacket some without buttons baggy pantaloons or "chasseur" trousers white leggings and a short leather cuff for the calf called jambieres. The sash was especially difficult to put on often requiring the help of another zouave. The zouave uniform was better suited for warm climates and rough terrain. The loose pantaloons allowed for greater freedom of movement than trousers while the short jacket was much cooler than the long woolen blouse worn by most armies of the time. One of the reasons for the smaller number of zouave units in the U.S. and Europe was the expense of the specialized uniform over that of mass-produced uniforms of a single color and cut.

1897OB312<p>London: Lawrence & Bullen 1897. Hard Cover. 312 pages. 'Ser Giovanni's collection begun in 1378 and finished after 1385 derives its title Il pecorone 'the numbskull'-- a title probably not due to the author-- from the fact that so many pecoroni appear in the book. The frame story tells of a chaplain and a nun who on 25 successive days meet in a convent parlor each telling the other a story each day. About half the stories are fictional; the other half are drawn from the Chronaca of Giovanni Villani. Many of the tales are stupid but a few are definitely good. The best that of Giannetto and the Lady of Belmonte embodies the 'pound of flesh' motif in an excellent plot from which Shakespeare derived directly or indirectly the 'pound of flesh' portion of the plot of The Merchant of Venice' Wilkins. 110 copies printed of which this is number 95. Printed on 'Japanese vellum.' Good copy vellum spine soiled nicked at bottom. Stock#OB312.</p> Lawrence & Bullen hardcover
