1890J27B8I5YM3EWPalestine Cairo Athens Venice 1890. Contemporary brown half morocco buckram boards. Oblong album 41.5 x 31 cm containing 62 albumen prints mostly 23 x 28 cm with 2 smaller prints of ca. 16 x 28 and 5 large prints of 35.5 x 27 cm. Most of the photographs are numbered and captioned on the negative in French and sometimes also in English. Interesting photo album probably compiled as a souvenir of a journey through the Holy Land Egypt Athens and Venice in the 1890s. Complete souvenir albums were sold by photographer's studios and dealers alike. However the fact that the current album has several blank pages at the end lacks a binding title and contains photographs showing several different countries suggests that it was compiled by an individual traveller. Among the photographs of Athens is an image of the statue of Themis excavated in 1890 in Rhamnous and subsequently transported to Athens. The inclusion of this photograph suggests the album was compiled in or soon after 1890.The largest part of the album contains photographs of Egypt and Jerusalem. After a view with numerous watermelons at the market of Jaffa it shows views of Ramlah Bethany al-Azariya Khan al-Ahmar "scene of the good Samaritan episode" and the convent Mar Saba. Before the views of Bethlehem on Christmas day are two photographs showing local inhabitants: a single rider with his horse before the river Jordan and a Bedouin camp near Jericho. All the major sites of Jerusalem are present including the Mount of Olives Wailing Wall Solomon's Stables and the Jaffa Gate with more watermelons. A misplaced image of the coppersmiths of Cairo appears before images of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The images of Egypt mostly show the river Nile and the Pyramids but also a busy market in the garden of Gezireh the interior of the Mosque of Muhammad Ali and a mummy. Typical images of Athens and Venice follow with the final image showing a gentleman and two ladies feeding the pigeons on the Piazza San Marco.With the captions of several of the photographs transcribed in pencil or ink. Binding worn at the extremities. Paperboard album leaves with a few spots and several tears most of the header corners damaged and several repaired. Photographs in excellent condition a few with some spots and light damage at the sides. hardcover

This important work is one of the earliest serious investigations into the origins and development of playing cards with critical attention given to Tarot Naibis and Eastern traditions.

Very Good. 18mos 279 294 pages contemporary half calf marbled boards tips of spines nicked scuffed minor marginal nibbling to two leaves in vol. 2 turn-ins darkened. Ex libris Elam Lewis Clarke. VERY RARE. <br/><br/>With a Selection from her Correspondence and Notices of the Progress of the Musical Drama in England. MARIA GARCIA MALIBRAND was the wunderkind child of Manuel Garcia himself the operatic star who created the role of Count Almaviva in Mazzini's "The Barber of Seville". He trained his two daughters as operatic singers. Maria 1808-1836 became the most famous singer of her time a living legend after she debuted in the role of Rosina in "Barber". Her father brought his family troupe to New York City where they performed the first Italian opera in NYC. Rossini Donizetti Chopin Mendelssohn and Liszt were strong supporters. Rossini considered Malibran a genius among singers he knew. Teatro Malibran in Venice is named for her after she appeared there in 1835. The Cuban-born author the Countess de Merlin was young beautiful rich talented and connected. A musician writer and wit her salon in Paris was very popular and promoted the career of Balzac. Only recently has the author Condesa de Merlin been appreciated as pivotal both to the Cuban nationalist tradition and to 19th Century Spanish-American literature. She was arguably the first woman writer in Cuban literary history to articulate a sense of national identity as well as being Cuba's first female historian - Adriana Mendez Rodenas. A second and third memoir of Malibran appears in vol. 2 along with selections from her correspondence anecdotes and finishes with a set of Italian sonnets and odes addressed to Madame Malibran. A remarkably scarce work for such a memoir. Lowe BIBLIOGRAPHICAL ACCOUNT OF ENGLISH THEATRICAL LITERATURE p. 238 . Henry Colburn hardcover
