MITCHELL, Dame RomaBiblio.com

A pair of portrait photographs of Dame Roma Mitchell in court dress taken on the occasion of her appointment as Queen's Counsel in 1962

19621455901962. Fine. 1962. Two vintage gelatin silver photographs visible image size 237 × 187 mm matted glazed and framed to match external dimensions 366 × 306 mm. Both photographs and frames are in fine condition. Dame Roma Mitchell 1913-2000 was Australia's first female Queen's Counsel judge university chancellor and state governor among other achievements. Mitchell was particularly proud of her appointment as Queen's Counsel in September 1962 considering it a highlight of her career and these fine portrait photographs must have been commissioned to mark this occasion. Both show her in court dress against an identical backdrop and with similar props. In one she wears her everyday bar wig and bands and in the other she wears full ceremonial dress with lace jabot and cuffs and full-bottomed wig worn only on formal occasions. Mitchell's appointment attracted scant media attention but an article in 'The Australian Women's Weekly' on 10 October 1962 makes more ado of her new full-dress regalia than it does of her already-distinguished legal career and pioneering advocacy of women's causes: 'Miss Mitchell an easy-to-talk-to elegantly dressed woman of 48 is tall and will wear full dress with distinction'. For women QCs 'full dress is laid down thus: "Coat made of black superfine cloth in the same style as a man's coat except that it should not be skirted but instead be short as in a lady's ordinary suit . black flexible buttons. Plain white blouse . lace frill and ruffles at wrist. Plain black skirt of superfine cloth. Black silk stockings . black patent-leather ladies' court shoes . cut-steel buckles. Black silk gown . full bottomed wig . black silk "wig-bag" . white gloves"'. The State Library of South Australia holds examples of both images PRG 778/57/5 and PRG 778/57/6 but does not identify the photographer. 2 items. unknown

SELLING AND HOARDING FOOD ON THE PIAZZA NAVONA IN 1800 Editio sopra il buon Regolamento de’ publici Mercati che si faranno in Piazza Navona

18004585Single broadsheet 60 x 44.5 cm folded. A very good copy. A rare survival of such an ephemeral piece unrecorded on ICCU: a large broadside issued during the nine-month occupation of Rome following the fall of the Roman Republic and proclaiming a complete revision of the running of the city's public market to prevent "hoarders and scalpers" from inflating food prices beyond the means of the "most sensitive" members of the populace during this tumultuous period.The edict instructs for example all retailers of vegetables and fruits to arrange contracts exclusively during daylight hours and only under their official banners; any retailers found bringing or intending to bring wholesalers into the marketplace will be considered in contravention of the law. Retailers are also prohibited from forming collective buying groups which lead to 'infamous monopolies'. Further regulations touch on sellers of poultry interactions between retailers and wholesalers and the physical locations of permitted activities. The trades in domestic pigeons and wild game however are exempted from these stringent regulations. The broadsheet also gives details of the enforcement of the new rules. Anyone not complying with the regulations after three days of their posting will suffer the consequences and trials of the accused will take place between 22 and 24 hours and for 1 hour the following morning in the market square itself. The penalties are stiff: for the first offence 25 scudi; for the second 50 scudi and a public beating; while the third warrants a 100 scudi fine and 5 years of public labor. Fines will also be imposed for passing false currency. The edict ends with a stern public hygiene order reminding all retailers of the prohibition of fish-selling in the marketplace. The public is also ordered to make use of the fountains in a civilised manner and not to throw rubbish into the fountain or onto the streets.The Piazza Navona became the official market square of Rome in the 15th century and remained so until the 1860s when the site was transferred to the Campo de' Fiori. Produced during a period of tremendous political upheavel the present document provides us with a surprisingly intimate insight into the problems of running such an enormous concern. As the broadside notes the Papal Government had formerly been responsible for the orderly running of the marketplace but in 1798 the short-lived Roman Republic based upon the principles of the French Revolution had seized power and exiled the Pope. According to the document many "abuses" were committed during the "so-called" Republican tenure and indeed the "greed and malice of those who have been able to evade the rules" has led to the need for tighter regulation. Today it complains many dealers hoard more than they sell rendering public markets 'inutili' and driving food prices far higher than they should be in turn affecting the "most sensitive" segment of the population. The present edict was issued under the authority of His Excellency Diego Naselli a Neapolitan commander whose troops had invaded the Republic in September 1799. However by July 3rd seven months after the edict's publication the city was returned to the authority of the Pope. Unrecorded in ICCU or OCLC. Lazzarini

Essai de l'histoire du commerce de Venise

172900518FIRST HISTORY OF VENETIAN TRADE --- xxiv 200 4 p. a8 b4 A-Q8/4 R6 166 x 95 mm --- First and only edition of this history of Venetian trade through 1290 which Barbier attributes to one "Roma"—and which appears to be the first printed survey of Venetian trade altogether. Barbier records the anonymous author's connections in Parisian law and finance but we know little else of him except that he perhaps took his text from a larger three-volume manuscript on the history of business in Italy. ¶ As the history of trade goes few European cities will be as synonymous with the subject as Venice. The Middle Ages saw it become one of the continent's most important ports the vital crossroads of trade between East and West. The author divides his history into three parts: the years 421-697 which he calls the age of the Tribuns; 697-1173 the age of elected doges; and 1173-1290 the age of sovereign doges. He covers the early development of the Rialto Venice's strategic location as a boon for international trade competition in fabric production silk especially—these and many other issues that historians continue to cite in discussions of early Venetian trade. ¶ We fully expected to identify earlier histories of trade in Venice a task we summarily failed at. The author himself complains of "the silence that historians of Venice have kept on this subject" xiij. True enough of the earlier commercio titles in both Cicogna and Soranzo's continuation none could be construed as a comprehensive historical survey of Venetian trade nor have our subject searches in WorldCat turned up anything earlier. Given Venice's tremendously influential role in the history of business the gap this work fills should be an important one. ¶ Hardly a common book and this may be the only copy recorded at auction; it matches the binding description of a copy offered in 2013. --- PROVENANCE: Bookplate removed from the front paste-down and a few efforts at obliterating small marks from the endleaves. --- CONDITION: Contemporary leather spine and board edges tooled in gold; marbled edges and endpapers. ¶ First and last few leaves a little dusty. Leather a bit discolored in spots; front paste-down skinned from removal of bookplate. A nice solid copy in a contemporary binding. --- REFERENCES: Emmanuele Antonio Cicogna Saggio di bibliografia veneziana 1847 v. 1 p. 211 #1461; Ant.-Alex.
