Binding: contemporary quarter blue cloth over light cream cloth title in gilt on flat spine lower right section of the upper boards with the author’s initials in a decorative gilt device top edges in gilt side edges uncut.<br><br> Notes: Essays of Elia is a collection of essays written by Charles Lamb; it was first published in book form in 1823 with a second volume Last Essays of Elia issued in 1833 by the publisher Edward Moxon. The essays in the collection first began appearing in The London Magazine in 1820 and continued to 1825. Lamb's essays were very popular and were printed in many subsequent editions throughout the nineteenth century. The personal and conversational tone of the essays has charmed many readers; the essays "established Lamb in the title he now holds that of the most delightful of English essayists." Lamb himself is the Elia of the collection and his sister Mary is "Cousin Bridget." Charles first used the pseudonym Elia for an essay on the South Sea House where he had worked decades earlier; Elia was the last name of an Italian man who worked there at the same time as Charles and after that essay the name stuck.<br> <br>Charles Lamb 1775 – 1834 was an English essayist poet and antiquarian best known for his Essays of Elia and for the children's book Tales from Shakespeare co-authored with his sister Mary Lamb 1764–1847.<br>Friends with such literary luminaries as Samuel Taylor Coleridge Robert Southey William Wordsworth and William Hazlitt Lamb was at the centre of a major literary circle in England.

2008007427Fordingbridge England: Castle Hill Press 2008. Limited and numbered issue of 2008. Hardcover. This Castle Hill Press reproduction of the original Portraits for Seven Pillars of Wisdom was initially conceived to accompany the 1997 first Castle Hill Press limited edition of the full 1922 "Oxford Text" of Seven Pillars of Wisdom. This Portraits volume is a stunning visual accompaniment to any Seven Pillars of Wisdom text featuring 41 full-page Seven Pillars Portraits 26 in full color. These are the portraits originally commissioned by Lawrence himself for his magnificent and legendary 1926 Subscriber's edition. <br /> <br />Castle Hill Press was headed by Lawrences official biographer Jeremy Wilson 1944-2017. Years after the 1997 edition of Seven Pillars and the accompanying issuance of the Portraits Wilsons Castle Hill Press issued a limited number of this stand-alone Portraits volume. In 2008 220 sets of portraits were issued thus bound in quarter linen cloth over tan laid paper-covered boards. The binding measures a substantial 11.375 x 8.125 inches 28.89 x 20.64 cm. The limitation page is hand-numbered in red ink this copy being 136. This copy is in fine condition the binding pristine the contents immaculate. <br /> <br />Seven Pillars of Wisdom is the story of T. E. Lawrence's 1888-1935 remarkable odyssey as instigator organizer hero and tragic figure of the Arab revolt against the Ottoman Empire during the First World War which he began as an eccentric junior intelligence officer and ended as "Lawrence of Arabia." This time defined Lawrence with indelible experience and celebrity which he spent the rest of his short life struggling to reconcile and reject to recount and repress. Lawrence famously resisted publication of his magnum opus for the general public during his lifetime. After numerous drafts abandonments and revisions in 1922 a 335000 word version was carefully circulated to select friends and literary critics - the famous "Oxford Text". George Bernard Shaw called it "a masterpiece". <br /> <br />Nonetheless Lawrence was unready to see it distributed to the public. In 1926 a further edited 250000 word "Subscriber's Edition" was produced by Lawrence - but fewer than 200 copies were made each lavishly and uniquely bound. The process cost Lawrence far more than he made in subscriptions. An essential part of the elaborate effort that produced the famous edition were the portraits commissioned by Lawrence for the edition from Frank Dobson Colin Gill Augustus John Eric Kennington Henry Lamb William Nicholson William Roberts William Rothenstein John Singer Sargent Gilbert Spencer and R. M. Young. <br /> <br />Eric Henri Kennington 1888-1960 himself a veteran of the First World War was by far the dominant artistic vision in these portraits responsible for 24 of the 41 and serving as art editor for the 1926 Subscribers Edition. Kennington actually traveled to the Middle East in order to draw his subjects from life rather than from photographs collecting portraits on a private journey through Trans-Jordan and the Hejaz. <br /> <br />Known as a painter print maker and sculptor Kennington was best regarded as "a born painter of the nameless heroes of the rank and file" whom he portrayed during both the First and Second World Wars. After the First World War Kennington met T. E. Lawrence at an exhibition of Kennington's war art. It is a credit to Kenningtons portraiture that he was even able to capture Lawrences own fretful relationship with his own fame. After Kennington produced a bust of Lawrence the subject wrote to the sculptor It represents not me but my top-moments those few seconds in which I succeed in thinking myself right out of things. In 1935 Kennington served as one of Lawrence's pallbearers. <br /> <br />Kenningtons portraits and those of his fellow artists were considered by Lawrence an essential accompanying element to his text. It is difficult not to agree. <br/><br/> Castle Hill Press hardcover

Numbered limited edition this being 29 of 101. Signed by the artist. <br/><br/>"Pathern is an attempt to make narrative out of one such ever-flowing river of randomness. Out in the bike path the manholes I surveyed and portrayed in film do not form much of a coherent message neither do they engage in rhythmic dialogues of continuity and discontinuity. The human element underneath the asphalt does not emerge systematically to passerby eyes either. But I had to do something with them. I had to." artist statement paperback books
