189528192London: Macmillan and Co 1895. First edition. Hardcover. g. Quarto. XIX 3 702 2 IX 1 832pp. Uncut. Original red cloth with gold lettering on spines. Frontispiece in each volume protected with a tissue-guard. First edition of this 2-vol. set biography of Cardinal Manning and his conversion to Catholicism. Manning's belief in Anglicanism was shattered in 1850 when in the so-called Gorham judgement the Privy Council successfully ordered the Church to institute an Evangelical clergyman who denied that the sacrament of baptism had an objective effect of baptismal regeneration. The denial of the objective effect of the sacraments was to Manning and many others a grave heresy contradicting the clear tradition of the Christian Church from the Fathers of the Church on and the fact that a civil secular court had the power to force the Anglican Church to accept such a heretical opinion proved to him that far from being a divinely created institution the Anglican church was merely a man-made creation of the English Parliament.

"One of the most important 17th century composers and one of the greatest of all English composers. . Purcell began his musical career as a choirboy and remained a church musician throughout his life holding positions at Westminster Abbey as well as the Chapel Royal. Like John Blow he wrote four types of church music: services; anthems for full choir and organ or with short ensemble verse passages often called full with verse anthems; verse anthems for solo voices choir and organ; and 'symphony anthems' for solo voices choir strings and continuo which at first were performed exclusively in the royal presence though several later circulated more widely in versions with organ accompaniment only." Peter Holman and Robert Thompson in Grove Music Online<br /> <br /> An English organist composer collector antiquarian and founder of the Novello publishing house Vincent Novello 1781-1861 did much to promote the study and performance of music in 19th century England.

Plus 8 pencil drawings on 6 sheets being based on the lessons one signed C.W.T. 7-1/2 x 5-3/4 inches. An extremely rare series known to Drepperd only from the first part of which he found only a single example. "This set of drawing cards is so rich in American views that it is comparable to a miniature Currier and Ives portfolio . these same views are to be found in finished but unsigned paintings by mid-nineteenth century American amateurs ." Drepperd. Purcell served as the drawing master at the Mechanic's School and in 1841 was awarded a prize for the best water color drawing at the the American Institutute Annual Fair.<br /> <br /> In all Purcell issued six parts in the series under the general title The Artist's Class Manual each offered for sale priced separately. An 1847 advertisement by the publisher John C. Riker in The American Bookseller's Complete Reference Trade List details each part's composition: "No. 1 contains a series of elementary and cottage drawing lessons consisting of fifty cards . No. 2 consists of thirty-six cards . subjects elements of landscape drawing exhibiting varieties of trees with their characteristic foliage . No. 3 consists of thirty-six cards . 12 elementary and 24 advanced landscapes . No. 4 contains twelve colored subjects with full instructions in the use and mixing of colors . No. 5 consists of twelve colored lessons more advanced than No. 4 . No. 6 consists of the same number of colored subjects being the finishing lessons in the art." The prices for each part ranged from .63 cents to $1.25 getting progressively more expensive for the later numbers and each was contained within a separate slipcase.<br /> <br /> Examples of various parts are located in the collections of the New York Historical Society the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Yale Center for British Art i.e. from the Paul Mellon collection. Very rare on the market. Drepperd Amer. Drawing Books p. 15 John C. Riker unknown
