Leben und Werk der Konstanzer Malerin. Konstanz/Stuttgart, 1963. Charakteristische Arbeit der Künstlerin, entstanden während der 2. Italienreise 1838-1840, bei der sie von ihrer Schwester Josephine und einem Dienstmädchen begleitet wurde. Über diese Zeit berichtet Bärbel Kovalevski in: Marie Ellenrieder 1791-1863. Kleine Galerie. Berlin, Selbstverlag 2008, S. 42, ?Die Belastung in psychischer und physischer Hinsicht führten dazu, dass sie sich während der zweiten Italien-Reise nie so frei und glücklich fühlte, wie sie es sich in ihren Vorstellungen gewünscht hätte: Kraft und neuen Mut zu gewinnen zu weiteren größeren Aufgaben im künstlerischen Schaffen war ihr Ziel. Aber Marie Ellenrieder kehrte 1840 in die Heimat zurück, ohne den ersehnten Auftrieb und die Stärkung ihrer Kräfte erhalten zu haben. Dabei war der zweite Aufenthalt von Marie Ellenrieder in Rom von Ehrungen begleitet. Bedeutende Persönlichkeiten besuchten ihr Atelier, wie der König Ludwig von Bayern. Sie wurde am 16.4.1840 in die Congregation dei Virtuosi al Panteon aufgenommen und wird am 6.2.1841 als korrespondierendes Mitglied aufgeführt. Auch an den Ausstellungen der deutschen Künstler im Januar 1839 und am 16.3.1840 nahm sie teil.?

1889005255Claremont 1889. Wooden box. Very Good. N.d. circa late 19th century. 52 separate sheets housed within a handsome wooden carrying case or box. Fifty of these sheets contains a dried and flattened plant sample -- flowers leaves and stems -- with the plant or flower identified in a neat handwriting and most unusual accompanied by a pen and ink vignette. The vignettes are a mix -- some replicate the plant or leaf and thus might be regarded as modestly scientific in purpose; others are of objects or animals which a pleasant to look at or have an appealing association to the artist -- tennis racquets a sailing boat an owl and the like; yet a third group and these are to us the most special are pure whimsy with a touch of humor. This third category also doesn't relate to the plants or flowers. Perhaps one thing that ties all the extra artistic fillips together is that they have an outdoorsy sporty or summer day quality about them. It goes without saying that the plant samples are arranged neatly and even artistically. We know who the collector and artist was because his name is on both a title page and a brass label attached to the carrying case. The title page also informs us that this collection was created during the Summer of 1889 and for Claremont High School. We would guess that the Claremont in question is one in New Hampshire based on where this collection was found but we can not state that definitively. At the time Claremont was a prosperous mill town and presumably this young Willey would have been from an affluent family who afforded him the leisure to create such a collection. including a title page a second prelim with a pencil illustration of a rose and "Handle with Care" exhortation and 50 leaves with leaf and flower samples every one of which also has an original sketch of some kind. The box really an artist's carrying case with wooden handles attached with thin braided rope to the wood an brass clasps and studs measures 35 by 27.5 cm and is 4.5 cm deep. Each of the leaves the sheets is 32.5 by 25 cm. Loss of some leaves and some chipped leaves as to be expected given the dryness of the organic material. Chips on the side of the title. The title and other prelim are discolored by the metal bar which has held them down in the box. <br/><br/> unknown books

189050404Santa Fe: New Mexican Printing Company 1890. 1890. NEW MEXICO. First edition. 8vo. Pictorial wrappers 216 pp. two lithographed folding maps: 1. "Official Map Of New Mexico 1890. Prepared By The Bureau Of Immigration." 2. "Map Of The Santa Fe Route And Connections." An uncommon promotional for the territory of New Mexico printed in Santa Fe by the Bureau of Immigration and including large folding maps of New Mexico and its land grants and of the Santa Fe Railroad and connections. The text covers a wide range of subjects such as the land and its energy resources farming cattle raising manufacturing irrigation projects the New Mexico Hot Springs schools population statistics and a long section of detailed descriptions of the New Mexico territory county by county. Herd 857 says "Scarce." The first map shows the location boundaries and grantees of all of the numerous early Spanish and Mexican land grants prepared by the Bureau of Immigration of which Max Frost was a member of the Executive Committee. The status of land grants in New Mexico at this time was a matter of contention and the detailed information given on this map would have been of interest to current and prospective land owners in the territory. The second map by Rand McNally shows the routes and extensive connections along the Santa Fe Railroad from Chicago to Missouri and then snaking into Kansas and throughout the Southwest. This work is scarce to rare. Rebacked with both the original front and rear covers laid-down separation along the spine joint of the front cover has been expertly repaired small closed tear to fore-edge of front cover expertly repaired else a very good clean and solid copy.
