Minimal wear to extremities. Hinges neatly reinforced. A bright fresh copy throughout. Near fine. MartinÃs Biblical paintings are among the finest ever produced: ìThe spirit in which Martin worked is suggested by a passage in his catalogue for the large oil painting ëThe Fall of Ninevehà which he exhibited in lonely magnificence in 1827: ëThe mighty cities of Nineveh and Babylon have long since passed away. The accounts of their greatness and splendor may have been exaggerated. But where strict truth is not essential the mind is content to find delight in the contemplation of the grand and the marvelous. Into the solemn visions of antiquity we look without demanding the clear daylight of truth. Seen through the mist of ages the great becomes gigantic the wonderful swells into the sublimeÃî Ray The Illustrator and the Book in England from 1790 to 1914 p. 44. At the front of the Bible are three leaves of a family history partially inscribed with the births deaths and marriages of three generations of the Hubbard family of Derby England during the years 1889-1943.
