54765Florence: nella Stamperia di Zanobi Pignoni 1632. Quarto 20.8 × 15 cm. Contemporary limp vellum; 8 86 2 pp. including printed half-title etched pictorial title as well as the final leaf containing woodcut devite of Giorgio Marescotti errata and colophon; historiated initials on pp. 6 8 and 1. Illustrated throughout with twenty etchings by Stefano della Bella. Later manuscript title to spine in pencil; very minor wear to edges of boards; tiny closed tear to margin of title; p. 79/80 with small closed tear to margin; else a very good wide-margined copy. First edition of this rare work documenting the festivities for the canonization of St. Andrea Corsini which had already taken place in 1629. Pignoni's preface makes it clear that its appearance was delayed because of the outbreak of the bubonic plague in 1629 to 1631. The large-scale event included a festive procession into Santa Maria del Carmine as depicted on the title page. The church was richly adorned and decorated including a series of twenty paintings depicting scenes from Corsini's life and various miracles attributed to him explained by poems by Alessandro Adimari; the event also included musical accompaniment including by the famous organist and composer Girolamo Frescobaldi. The present work is illustrated with Stefano della Bella's etched interpretations of the original paintings. Measuring ca. 9.5 × 10.5 cm the etchings are printed within the text. Each scene features a decorative border as well as a combination of an engraved motto and allegorical motif inside a cartouche at the bottom. The accompanying text describes at length the various sonnets mottos and other words displayed during the festivities dwelling on various emblems symbols and anagrams that shed further light on the life and miracles of Saint Corsini. The author was the Florentine priest Benedetto Buommattei or Buonmattei 1581-1648 a member of the Accademia della Crusca as well as Professor of Tuscan first at Pisa and then at Florence where he also lectured on Dante and met John Milton in 1638. He also authored the important "Della lingua toscana" 1613.<br /> <br /> The striking etchings are unsigned and were long attributed to Jacques Callot who was active in Florence between 1612 and 1621. De Vesme later established them to have been the work of a still very young Stefano della Bella 1610-1664. They depict key episodes in the life of Andrea Corsini 1301-1374 the Bishop of Fiesole at his time of death whose reputation for saintliness was based in part on his heroic works of mercy during the 1347 outbreak of the plague in Florence. A procession with his relics still takes place each year in Florence on his feast day.<br /> <br /> Cicognara 1439. Gamba 2750. De Vesme/Massar Stefano Della Bella 884-904.

199127365Charleston: The Charleston Museum 1991. 3rd. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 11.2x8.8x0.9in. revised. Dust jacket in clear protector. <br>Burton's pioneer work in the field has been edited revised and brought up-to-date by Warren Ripley. It is now republished in an entirely different format with corrections where needed and insertion of considerable additional information that has been found during the intervening decades. The biographies of more than 75 silversmiths have been added to Burton's original tally to bring the total number of individuals and small firms discussed in the text to more than 550. Early editions of the book contained fewer than a dozen photographs of silver. There are now illustrations of more than 150 pieces of silver that repose in collections of museums private organizations or individuals. In addition there are approximately 20 sketches of items such as pieces of silver that were not available for photographing contemporary newspaper advertisements or bills of sale. More important from the point of view of collectors dealers and individuals owning early South Carolina silver the 90 or so touchmarks of silversmiths reproduced by Burton have been more than doubled in number and in some cases several different marks used by a smith are shown. The biographies are accompanied by notes a bibliography a table of silversmith's initials and an index. They combine to make this the most complete and accurate book available today on South Carolina silversmiths and their work. <br>185pp 2.23lb 11.2x8.8x0.9in The Charleston Museum hardcover
