Bookplate of Wilson S. Howell. Pratt 1852-1924 was a member of the Royal Geographical Society "and in 1891 he received the Gill Memorial Award for the encouragement of geographical research in early career researchers who have shown great potential. In the same year he visited Tibet and China. In China his activities were treated with suspicion and notices were posted warning locals of assisting him. He made some progress by employing Chinese Christians. These employees were harassed by the locals and his German assistant had to retreat from his work. Whilst he was in Tatsienlu in China he met and was assisted by the French missionaries and naturalists Bishop Felix Biet and Father Jean André Soulié . In 1892 he published an account of his journey The snows of Tibet through China. This book is thought to show that Pratt did not actually get to Tibet but he only got close enough to meet the missionaries who had been ejected from the country. Incidentally Pratt's book is thought to be a source for the work of Vladimir Nabokov" Wikipedia. Yakushi P290a. See also "Chinese Rhubarb and Caterpillars" by Dieter E.

18702005280042Handcrafted 1870. Hardcover. Very Good. A unique lovely hand-painted book in a fine binding. 28.5 x 25 cm. No date circa 1870-1880. Bound in fine contemporary red morocco with gilt lettering and decoration. Boards are heavily gilt ruled with extra-gilt dentelle. Marbled end sheets. All edges gilt. Manuscript calligraphic text of Aldrich's poem with hand-painted illustrations. "Painted by Mrs. John H. Van Antwerp Albany New York." Calligraphic title and 25 botanical plates many with the names of the flowers on the verso in Martha's hand with tissue guards. Many of the plates also include lovely images of butterflies moths or various insects. Drawn on Reynolds' Bristol Board. The artist has matched the variety of flower with Aldrich's verse. The artist Martha Wiswall Van Antwerp died August 30 1880 and drew this work on Reynolds' Bristolboard; and thus this work must have been created some time in the 1870s. Van Antwerp has signed the book in calligraphic initials on the title page and a small bookplate in the rear assigns this work to her. <br> Text of Aldrich's poem: "I like not lady-slippers Nor yet the sweet-pea blossoms Nor yet the flaky roses Red or white as snow; I like the chaliced lilies The heavy Eastern lilies The gorgeous tiger-lilies That in our garden grow." This volume was bound by Martha Van Antwerp's brother-in-law Daniel Lewis Van Antwerp 1828-1910 who began binding in Albany under his name in 1852 having previously worked for Anthony L. Harrison whose business he assumed. Binding Provenance provided to us by Mr. Steve Beare Handcrafted hardcover

1850103087<p>Antwerp S. Mayer n.d. c. 1860. Four porcelain cards. size: c. 225 x 31 cm. All signed: "Gravé par S. Mayer a Anvers" & "Etabl. lith. de S. Mayer à Anvers". In 1880 the firm of S. Mayer was taken over by Seghers. some light staining & two plates with some tiny damage to the margins but good copies.</p><p>The five senses - sight hearing smell taste and touch - are represented on these charming porcelain cards. Sight hearing and smell each have their own card and taste & touch share a card. Five scenes represent the five senses: sound is represented by a woman listening at at door; taste by a clergyman drinking a glass of wine smell by a man sitting on a chair who smells a substance he has taken from a small pot; sight by a girl looking through binoculars and a woman who is reading; and touch by a miser touching coins. Surrounding these scenes on each of the plates are numerous tiny drawings also representing the senses. They range from seventeen small noses on cord held by two little devils twelve tiny eyes no a scroll held by two little angels to small scenes showing a painter at work a cook two fencing boys a little girl playing a piano a woman being revived with smelling salt etc. etc. The lithographer obviously had fun making these.</p><p>Porcelain-cards or were mainly produced in Belgium in the nineteenth century between 1825 and the 1870's. They are called porcelain-cards because they look a bit like porcelain. They were printed in lithography on a white background of paper with kaolin or lead white. Their production gradually stopped in the 1870's because of the health hazards for printers. They are technical masterpieces of the so-called chromolithography just after its invention.</p>
