194533330952Waltham Saint Lawrence: The Golden Cockerel Press 1945. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Webb Clifford. One of 500 copies folio size pp. The Golden Cockerel Press came together in autumn of 1920 at a time when post-World War I society was ushering in a renaissance of creative minds including another renaissance of the printing press as the artist's tool similar to that of William Morris and the arts and crafts printers of the previous century. The press worked with many notable artists including Eric Gill Blair Hughes-Stanton Robert Gibbings and the artist for this work Clifford Webb. <br /> <br /> Clifford Cyril Webb 1895-1972 studied art and is best known today for his wood engravings. He was a founder-member of the Society of Wood Engravers and "was a prominent figure in the group of engravers whobrought about the revival of wood engraving in the 1920s and benefited from the encouragement of Robert Gibbings and the Golden Cockerel Press" n.b. quote from Webb's entry in Horne "The Dictionary of 20th Century British Book Illustrators" p. 437. <br /> <br /> Per the bibliographical entry for this work "it is surprising that no complete translation of this unique eye-witness account of the First Crusade had ever been published in England before. What the pilgrims did in their fervour of blind fanaticism 'to the glory of God' makes astonishing reading!" <br /> <br /> ___DESCRIPTION: Bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe in half vellum with orange buckram boards gilt vignette on the front board of crusaders on horseback by Clifford Webb top edge gilt frontis one of five full-page wood-engravings bound in throughout small title page wood-engraving also of crusaders on horseback wood-engraving of a cockerel holding a crusader pennant in its beak on p. 9; Poliphilus type on hand-made paper folio size 12 3/8" by 7 3/8" pagination: 1-4 5-92 1 colophon. <br /> <br /> ___CONDITION: A solid very good copy with clean boards the vellum smooth and without wear a strong square text block with solid hinges the interior is clean and bright and entirely free of prior owner markings; a small mark on the vellum on the back board light overall edgewear the corners bumped but not rubbed. <br /> <br /> ___CITATION: Cockalorum 168. <br /> <br /> ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. <br /> <br /> ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

Seitei KachÅ çœäºèŠ±é³¥ Prints Bird and Flower<br /> <br /> Watanabe Seitei 渡辺çœäº also ShÅtei artist <br /> <br /> Tokyo: Okura Shoten Okura Yasugoro<br /> <br /> Taisho 5 1916<br /> <br /> Brown cloth clasped portfolio 28.2 x 38 cm. A complete collection of the 22 color prints the preface and table of contents page 24 sheets in all with a colophon label on the inside of the rear cover. <br /> <br /> A wonderful production in color woodblock of the work of the important artist Watanabe Seitei 渡辺çœäº 1851-1918. Okura Shoten was also the publisher of Seitei's other two books the 3 volume Seitei KachÅ Gafu çœäºèŠ±é³¥ç”»èœ of 1890-1 and the KachÅ Gafu èŠ±é³¥ç”»èœ of 1903 but this portfolio is by far the rarest of all his works. Prints from the series are seldom seen and much prized complete sets like this one are vanishingly rare. <br /> <br /> After studying under Kikuchi YÅsai èŠæ± 容斎 1788-1878 also known as Kikuchi Takeyasu and Kawahara RyÅhei and established artist Shibata Zeshin 柴田是真 1807-1891 in his youth he traveled to Europe in 1878. One of the early practitioners of the Nihonga 日本画 style of Western-influenced traditional painting he is primarily known for his work with bird and flower subjects which he revolutionized with his delicate and playful ability to capture the reality of color plumage and other details. <br /> <br /> Overall the condition of the covers is quite good and the prints are well printed. The heavy paper on which the prints are mounted are a bit toned but the prints themselves are quite good and clean with wonderful colors and impressions. A cornerstone of any Japanese bird and flower collection. Enclosed in a custom clasped cloth box. unknown
