Johnson et al. 1809. 248 x 146 mm. 9 3/4 x 5 3/4". 2 p.l. 700 pp.With commentary by Christian Gottlob Heyne. <br/> HANDSOME CONTEMPORARY NAVY BLUE STRAIGHT-GRAIN MOROCCO DENSELY GILT covers with thick and thin gilt rule border and large central laurel wreath that on the front with the Latin motto "Honoris Causa" "For the sake of honor" that on the rear with the name Thomas T. Churton and the date 1817 raised bands spine lavishly gilt in compartments filled with foliage and small tools emanating from a central fleuron gilt titling and turn-ins all edges gilt. WITH A SPLENDID LATER PAINTING OF MOUNT ETNA ON THE FORE EDGE. In a recent plush-lined blue folding cloth box with gilt spine titling. With ink stamp of Bolton Public Library on verso of title and first page of text. Lowndes IV 2777. Corners slightly bumped boards a little faded first two gatherings mildly foxed isolated rust spots or faint freckled foxing but still AN ESPECIALLY DESIRABLE COPY the handsome binding virtually unworn the text clean and smooth and the unusual fore-edge painting very well preserved.<br/> <br/> This scholarly edition of Heyne's acclaimed Virgil comes in a fine contemporary binding with a noteworthy fore-edge painting. Dibdin Gibbon and Sandys all praise Heyne's edition of Virgil and Sandys credits him with being "the first who with any decisiveness attempted . . . to read in the writings of the Ancients not their language alone or even their detached opinions and records but their spirit and character their way of life and thought." First published in Leipzig in 1767-88 Heyne's edition was deemed "incomparable" by Dibdin and even inspired a poem by William Cowper "On Receiving Heyne's Virgil from Mr. Hayley." Our painting shows a coastal landscape in Sicily rendered in strong greens and deep blues. There is a bay on the left and a tiny village perched above the sandy beach with white-capped Mount Etna emitting a thin wisp of smoke in the background. Purplish clouds are gathering in the distance which combined with the smoking volcano lend a frisson of foreboding to an otherwise tranquil scene. As often the age of the painting is difficult to determine: not the work of any recognizable painter it is very probably not as old as the binding yet is almost certainly not something done during the last 100 years. In any case the quality of its execution is high and the subject matter--which is something quite different from the typical fore-edge design--is entirely appropriate for the classical contents of the book. The attractive binding indicates a milestone in the life of its owner Thomas Townson Churton 1798-1865. The phrase "Honoris Causa" on a 19th century binding or bookplate is often found in conjunction with an academic prize being granted and in 1817 Churton then a top student at Rugby School was awarded a prestigious "leaving exhibition" to support his further education which he duly started the same year at Brasenose College Oxford. He was one of only two students in his year granted the full seven-year exhibition funding that was more than sufficient to support undergraduate studies and beyond at the university. In keeping with the content of the book at hand and with the subject of its fore-edge painting Churton was a classicist and he excelled at Oxford as he had at Rugby being elected Dean of Brasenose in 1828 and being a Fellow from 1821 to 1852. Not emblazoned with the Rugby arms this exceedingly fine binding was possibly commissioned privately perhaps by family to commemorate Churton's superb performance at Rugby and in hopes of a bright future at Oxford.

1860FF2484London:: Edward Moxon 1860. 1860. Small 8vo. viii 310 pp. Original full reddish-brown blind-stamped morocco with gilt spine title all edges gilt; slightly rubbed. The added thumb-holed brown cloth slip-case is made by Frost at the time of his painting. Very good. DOUBLE FORE-EDGE PAINTING WITH EROTIC SCENES SIGNED BY THE ARTIST: With a double fore-edge painting showing bawdy "and athletic" erotic scenes painted by Martin Frost signed with both his initials and containing his handwritten colophon at rear dated 1999. Frost has painted two side-by-side fore-edges giving four vignettes in all: "Four scenes of athletic and ingenious lust" The first side shows a copulating man and woman on either a horse or on a carriage drawn by a horse after Thomas Rowlandson's works. Frost's initials are found on the lower right of this side. The reverse side shows two vertical vignettes depicting coitus on a bike rather an imaginary wheeled chair with parasol note the erect penis statue in the background and a stage scene with a partially nude woman lifting her skirt high to give a view of her genitals and a happy pot-bellied man with a huge erect penis that balances a bowl and 3 goblets he is talented! his costume of the British stage his genitals showing as if being the star of the show. An audience whoops it up in the gallies. Both characters sportingly wear a feather in their hair or cap. Edward Moxon, 1860. hardcover books
