1735911581735. ZUE TOKAI åœ–æœƒå®—å½ SOU-I 7 vols in one. Edo Suharaya Shimbei Kyouho 20 1735. Oohon 27.0 x 17.5 cm. Originally published as a series of artists's guides in a set in China in 1607 it was redone in Japan in 1702 then reprinted as here in 1735. Like the HASSHU GAFU å…«ç¨®ç”»èœ it had a large influence in Japan particularly on Nanga style artists. Everything human animal and vegetable is rendered in beautiful sumi-e woodblock prints. There are extracts from classic Chinese texts on painting technique going back centuries. A vade mecum for the Edo artist interested in the techniques and theory of Chinese painting. The seven volumes of the original are here rebound into a single volume with the original worn cover and title label. This gappon volume is complete and has been cleaned internally to neutralize staining. There are some pages that remain stained but the book is still a remarkable work which is quite scarce. Most copies referenced online are incomplete or microfilmed. See Mitchell 566 for his information on the original Chinese edition. It should be noted that the copy he saw of the Genroku 1702 edition was incomplete. Not a common set. Mitchell misreads ZUE as ZUKAI in the title. unknown
1770161411770. Etching and engraving. Unfinished working proof. In fair condition with the exception of being trimmed within the platemark. Laid onto contemporary backing card. Tear along middle of image which has been expertly repaired. Some creases in image. A rare working proof by John Browne the celebrated English landscape engraver.<br/> <br/>One of the most esteemed English landscape engravers John Browne was born in Finchfield Essex in 1741. In 1756 he was apprenticed to the engraver John Tinney but then went to work for the influential landscape engraver William Woollett. It is believed that many of Woollett's most admired plates were in fact engraved by Browne. He devoted himself entirely to engraving landscape and genre scenes in particular after works by the French and Dutch masters. In 1770 he was elected an associate engraver of the Royal Academy exhibiting thirteen plates between 1767 and 1801. This stunning genre scene is a wonderful example of his skilled hand and a rare working proof. This intriguing print shows a unique step in the printmaking process before an image is ready for publication. Before the image is completed the engraver has printed a trial impression to view this stage of the engraved plate. It is incredibly rare to find prints in this unfinished experimental stage; impressions which were pulled as working proofs are unique and were almost never duplicated.<br/> <br/>Dictionary of National Biography. unknown books
