An attractive copy. $250. First edition. This book reproduces the text of a speech given by military leader Don Rafael Vasco del Campo shortly upon his elevation by the King of Spain to the Presidency of Granada's Supreme Court of Justice. Don Vasco who distinguished himself in the service of the Spanish Crown in Mexico proclaims his humility before the office of his charge never before entrusted to a military man and invokes education as an antidote to envy hate revenge and thoughts of theft lies and deception. He also challenges the need for capital punishment and other legal injustices. During his short-lived presidency over Granada's highest court the region enjoyed peace and a flowering of the arts which ended with Napoleon's invasion of Spain and the subsequent popular uprisings against the Spanish Crown.

Ties lacking light worming to head and foot of spine with resultant small tears and loss modern cloth solander box morocco lettering-piece on the spine. A very fine collection with richly hand-coloured plates of the best of the decorative interior work carried out by Raphael in Rome. The album is hand-coloured and bound in Rome in the fourth quarter of the 18th-century. It is clearly as it was delivered to its original owner perhaps a Grand-Tourist perhaps a local dilettanti and perfectly echoes his wishes: the first part of Ottoviani's excellent work on Raffaello's Logge frescoes that is the part on the pilasters and including Maitre Dorigny's engravings but only the Loggia of Psyche set all hand-coloured and uniform in size. The first work part one of three concentrates on the decorative pilasters executed by Raphael and his assistants as part of a larger scheme of redecoration between 1518-1519 in the Logge on the main storey of the Vatican apartments. The remarkable prints the first to be carried out of the decoration of the Logge were probably planned as early as 1760 but were not executed until 1774 to 1776. The project was carried out by the painter Gaetano Savorelli the draughtsman Ludovico Teseo the architect Pietro Camporesi and the engravers Giovanni Ottaviani and Giovanni Volpato. The plates were remarkable not just for their size and magnificent colouring but also because of the influence they had on contemporary taste. The decision was made to borrow elements from Raphael's Vatican tapestries and insert them where the original frescoes were in too poor a state to be legible. The finished plates therefore represented an amalgam of design elements presented with a crisp freshness of colour that held enormous appeal and did much to stimulate the taste for the grotesque in the neo-classical period. The second work is of Raphael's Cupid and Psyche series of frescoes carried out by Raphael between 1516 and 1518 in the Loggia of Psyche in the villa Farnesina in Rome. The series also comes with a title and an eleventh plate of the ceiling fresco in the adjoining Sala di Galatea executed in 1512: neither the plate nor the title were ever bound in the present collection. Originally published by the Rossis it is the work of Nicolas Dorigny 1658-1746 who lived and worked in Rome between about 1690 and 1719. The painter classicist and art historian Giovanni Pietro Bellori 1613-1696 provided the text at the foot of the plates appropriate excerpts from Apuleuis's Golden Ass.
