Small 4to, iv, 200pp., tinted lithograph frontispiece of Thirlestane House (lightly foxed), orig. blind stamped cloth, title in gilt on upper cover and spine, a very nice copy. "Lord Northwick died intestate, being succeeded by his nephew, and the whole collection was sold by auction... A considerable number of the paintings were bought in by the 3rd Lord Northwick and taken to Northwick Park. They passed in 1929 with the rest of the estate to Edward Spencer-Churchill, on whose death in 1964, they were disposed of, by private sale and at auction, a large number of the pictures and antiquities being transferred to the national collections in lieu of death duties. Phillips also bought heavily, acquiring ultimately no less than ninety-five pictures. The facetious tone in which he announced this to his wife can have done little to allay her disquiet. 'My dear Wyfy', he wrote on 16 August 1859. 'Poor Tippy ruined at the Northwick sale!!! What a pity his careful prudent Wyfy was not with him. Could not help it! Such beautiful Pictys! But, where to put them? "Aye, there's the rub."'"? Munby, Phillipps Studies.

Un'allegra brigata di robusti bevitori in abiti cinquecenteschi intorno a un tavolo di osteria brinda con vino e birra, senza formalità e secondo il gusto personale di ciascuno: a terra, un barile di birra, bottiglie sparse di vino e liquori, testimoniano la disponibilità di ogni tipo di bevanda, purchè di un buon tasso alcolico. Il gusto della raffigurazione è quello tipico della imagérie alsacienne di quegli anni.
