1840148887London: Henry Hooper 1840. First edition of this essay highlighting George Cruikshank’s artistic skill and cultural significance in early Victorian Britain. Octavo bound in three-quarters morocco by J. McDonald of New York with gilt titles and tooling to the spine gilt ruling to the front and rear panels gilt stamped facsimile signature of Cruikshank on the front panel all edges gilt marbled endpapers tissue-guarded frontispiece illustrated with 17 tissue-guarded black and white etched plates by George Cruikshank. In near fine condition. An Essay on the Genius of Cruikshank published in The Westminster Review in 1840 is an early critical appraisal of George Cruikshank’s artistic achievements and cultural influence. Written at a time when caricature was often dismissed as ephemeral or merely humorous the essay situates Cruikshank’s work within a broader artistic and moral framework praising his sharp political insight his ability to capture the nuances of everyday life and his growing reputation as a serious illustrator of literature. By highlighting his transition from biting political satire to celebrated book illustration particularly his collaborations with authors such as Charles Dickens the review both legitimizes caricature as a form of social commentary and cements Cruikshank’s position as one of the most significant visual commentators of early Victorian Britain.

018552[Positivisme] Richard Congreve (1818-1899), philosophe anglais, figure de proue du positivisme en Angleterre, à l'origine du schisme en 1878. L.A.S. en français, Londres, 27 Shakespeare 88 [5 octobre 1876], 2p in-8. Au docteur Jean-François Robinet (1825-1899), médecin d'Auguste Comte et important positiviste français. « Cher et digne ami, Je vous expédie avec les détails convenables le troisième versement pour le subside sacerdotal £80.5 ce qui fait un total pour cette année de £184.7 jusqu'ici. Vous aurez reçu ma brochure. Puisse-t-elle vous plaire. L'adresse du docteur Nyström si vous l'avez me ferait plaisir. Aussi [mot illisible] les droits de l'homme soit la première phrase complète qui doit être, dites-vous, l'aphorisme décisif p.520 [mots illsibles]. Est-il vrai qu'une nouvelle relation de la philosophie se prépare? Où en est la revue ? Et que pensez-vous du projet d'enseignement. Et la circulaire aux républicains dont parle M. [Pierre] Laffitte. Est-elle en train de paraître ? Et les lettres Comte Mill. Enfin, je ne finis pas avec mes questions. Pardon. Elles sont courtes. Les réponses pourront bien l'être. Mes remerciements au docteur Dubuisson pour sa dernière lettre. Par malheur, je cherche pendant des heures et je ne puis mettre la main dessus. Toutes mes salutations les plus affectueuses à toute la famille. A vous de coeur. Richard Congreve ». Le subside sacerdotal était la contribution que versaient les positivistes à destination de la France. Congreve cite les noms de plusieurs positivistes : Anton Kristen Nystrom (1842-1931) était un médecin suédois, propagateur du positivisme en Suède. Il ne suivra pas Congreve dans son schisme en 1878 ; Paul Dubuisson (1847-1908) est un médecin et psychiatre, gendre du docteur Robinet ; Pierre Laffitte (1823-1903) est un philosophe positiviste, successeur d'Auguste Comte. Les lettres « Comte Mill » sont les lettres d'Auguste Comte à John Stuart Mill qui seront publiées par Leroux en 1877. Les lettres entre positivistes sont rares. [184]

Au docteur Jean-François Robinet (1825-1899), médecin d'Auguste Comte et important positiviste français. « Monsieur et éminent coreligionnaire, Je vous adresse les souscriptions ci-incluses à propos de la publication du volume exceptionnel. Je viens de recevoir le procès verbal de la réunion positiviste relatif à la circulaire Lemos. Permettez-moi de vous exprimer mon regret que le ton digne et calme de votre lettre n'ait pas dominé l'ensemble de cette pièce. Que croit-on gagner à ces accusations et attaques ? Elles ne tendent, je puis l'affirmer, qu'à éterniser la division. Et semer la haine. Rallier dans le degré possible tous ces positivistes, ce but doit primer tout et votre lettre me paraît conçue dans cet esprit, qui manque dans la paix principale ainsi que dans les lettres de M. Harrison surtout. Avec la vôtre, il faut mettre celle de M. Dubuisson. Avec mes meilleurs sentiments. Richard Congreve ». Miguel Carlos Corrêa Lemos (1854-1917) est le fondateur de l'apostolat positiviste au Brésil. Frederic Harrison (1831-1923) est un avocat anglais, influencé par Congreve, cofondateur de la Société positiviste de Londres. Il prit s'éloigna de Congreve à partir de 1870. Paul Dubuisson (1847-1908) est un médecin et psychiatre, gendre du docteur Robinet. Les lettres entre positivistes sont rares. [443]

Au docteur Jean-François Robinet (1825-1899), médecin d'Auguste Comte et important positiviste français. « Mon cher Monsieur Robinet, Je m'empresse de vous remercier de l'envoi de la seconde douzaine d'exemplaires arrivée ce matin et des explications qui l'accompagnent, auxquelles je reconnais beaucoup de validité. La signature est certainement moins urgente[?] où l'écrit n'a rien d'agressif ni de personnel - et le jugement du public est souvent si peu juste quand il s'agit d'un homme connu. J'ai prêté le livre à J.[nom illisible] avec qui nous avons des relations. Je vous donne son adresse si vous le juger convenable de lui en remettre un exemplaire directement. Il est très peu disposé du reste à accepter notre point de vue. Tout la famille se joint à moi pour vous remercier de votre bon souvenir. Salut et Fraternité. Richard Congreve ».

Du motif je ne puis pas juger, et puis j'ai été fort occupé. "Le Catéchisme" aurait dû vous être remis au mois de décembre dernier. Mais comme la poste m'a manqué, j'ai le plaisir de vous expédier une autre copie - et en même temps un bon de poste pour 11 Frans pour le Testament et le [mot illisible] avec mes remerciements sincères, pour cela et plus pour votre don gracieux de la notice sur la vie d'Auguste Comte. J'étudierai les deux, vite et bien. Comme je désire l'Union et l'Unité. [mot illisible], espérons, avec une autre générations.

Acquaforte misure: mm 80 x 240 Incisore e disegnatore, si dedicò sporadicamente alla pittura. Il padre Francesco, scultore allievo di Giambologna, morì prematuramente ma riuscì ad avviare tutti i suoi figli a mestieri d’arte. Stefano fu il solo ad eccellere, ebbe i primi insegnamenti presso botteghe di dimenticati orefici i quali ebbero tuttavia il pregio di fargli prender dimestichezza con il bulino. Fu sostanzialmente un autodidatta. Le fonti bibliografiche affermano che egli si esercitava a disegnare figure curiosamente partendo dai piedi e a copiare le incisioni di Jacques Callot avendo come unico confronto l'incisore Remigio Cantagallina. Fu notato poi dal pittore Giovan Battista Vanni che lo prese nella sua bottega e gli diede i primi insegnamenti di pittura e del disegno. La vocazione di Della Bella fu sicuramente l'incisione e già le sue prime opere rivelano i temi a lui più cari: scene di vita contemporanea, feste, battaglie e le decorazioni. Lo studio delle incisioni e dei disegno di maestri antichi, la conoscenza e il confronto con i maestri fiorentini e fiamminghi a lui contemporanei allora presenti alla corte medicea furono furono di grande stimolo. Egli è considerato un grafico puro, grazie ai suoi numerosi viaggi tra Roma e Parigi e grazie alla protezione dei Medici maturò un proprio linguaggio grafico, in vita e per tutto il XVIII secolo fu ricercato e collezionato in Francia e in Italia. Questa è la tavola numero 15 della serie Ornamenti di fregi e fogliami, composta da sedici stampe. La tavola si divide in un fregio nelle parte superiore e due schizzi nel margine inferiore. Nel pannello superiore in un girale vegetale fanno capolino i corpi di due bambini; quello a sinistra sta decorando con ghirlande il corpo di un'aquila, mentre quello di destra la criniera di un leone. Nel zona inferiore, sempre con tratto fine ed elegante, vediamo a sinistra un tritone che brandendo un bastone cavalca un cervo marino e a destra il profilo della testa di un satiro. In basso, inciso nel margine inferiore, "Stef. della Bella inuent. et fecit", "N. Langlois excu", "Cum Priuil Regis" e numero. Impressione eccellente. Ottimo stato di conservazione. Ampi margini oltre la battuta del rame. Stato: III/VI con l'indirizzo N. Langlois (Parigi 1640 - 1703). Bibliografia: De Vesme-Massar 1001, pag. 218.
