DETMOLD, Maurice & Edward J, illustrators; KIPLING, Rudyard
Sixteen Illustrations of Subjects from Kipling's "Jungle Book
London: Macmillan & Co. Limited 1903. Beauty That Hath Terror in It"<br /> The Detmold Brothers' Sublime and Unsettling Vision of The Jungle Book<br /> <br /> KIPLING Rudyard. DETMOLD Maurice & Edward J. illustrators. Sixteen Illustrations of Subjects from Kipling's "Jungle Book" by Messrs. Maurice & Edward Detmold. London: Macmillan & Co. Limited 1903.<br /> <br /> First edition. Folio 21 3/8 x 15 1/2 inches; 543 x 394 mm. Title page contents leaf and sixteen fine colored prints tipped onto white board with gray window mounts each with a cover sheet providing the title and a short extract from the text. Title-page and list of illustrations expertly repaired at fold second plate description with short marginal tear some light foxing to text and mounts only - the plates clean and fresh.<br /> <br /> Housed in the publisher's green cloth portfolio front cover lettered and with illustration in gilt one of two original green silk ties. An excellent example of the Detmold's finest work.<br /> <br /> Rendered in the rich colors characteristic of the Detmolds' artwork the plates in this portfolio far surpass the later small book edition published five years later whose reproductions appear comparatively muted. Considered among the finest book illustrations of all time R. Dalby notes: "These paintings were praised for their realistic detail and decorative arrangement" while Diana Johnson intriguingly observes: "The end result of this incongruous joining together of the quasi-scientific and the ornamental is an image which is both fanciful and often rather disturbing." <br /> <br /> Published when the Detmold twins were only twenty years old this portfolio was their final collaboration before Maurice's tragic suicide in 1908. Because the illustrations closely resemble original artwork when framed many individual plates were separated from their sets making a complete portfolio a rare find today.<br /> <br /> The sixteen plates in Sixteen Illustrations of Subjects from Kipling's Jungle Book represent the Detmold brothers at the absolute height of their early powers combining natural history accuracy with a highly personal imaginative symbolism. Executed when Maurice Detmold and Edward J. Detmold were only twenty the images reveal an astonishing maturity of design color harmony and psychological insight.<br /> <br /> Across the series animals are rendered with an almost zoological precision - musculature fur scale and movement observed with scientific care - yet the compositions are unmistakably poetic and stylized. Wolves stand with hieratic gravity; panthers and tigers possess an elegance that borders on the mythic; serpents coil with hypnotic inevitability. <br /> <br /> These are not merely illustrations of stories by Rudyard Kipling but visual interpretations that deepen and at times darken the emotional tenor of the text.<br /> <br /> Several plates focus on Mowgli himself depicted as a lithe vulnerable yet resolute figure often isolated against vast spare landscapes. His nudity is treated without sentimentality: the Detmolds emphasize his animal belonging rather than childhood innocence reinforcing the central tension of The Jungle Book - the precarious boundary between human and beast. In scenes with Bagheera Baloo and Akela the animals are endowed with a quiet authority their gazes expressive and morally charged suggesting intellect and memory rather than simple instinct.<br /> <br /> The Monkey People shown amid cold stone lairs and architectural fragments are among the most unsettling inventions in the set: simian forms twisted into almost grotesque attitudes animated by restless purposeless energy. By contrast the great predators - Shere Khan especially - are portrayed with a terrible beauty: powerful controlled and ominously calm embodying what the Manchester Guardian aptly described as "that beauty which hath terror in it."<br /> <br /> Color plays a central role throughout. The Detmolds employ a restrained but sumptuous palette - burnished browns smoky grays deep greens and muted ochres - heightened by subtle tonal transitions rather than overt brilliance. This lends the plates a painterly richness and a unity of mood that far surpasses the later reduced-format book edition whose reproductions inevitably dull these effects.<br /> <br /> Decorative framing carefully balanced negative space and rhythmic patterning of foliage fur and stone give each composition an architectural coherence. The result is a body of work that stands apart from conventional Edwardian illustration: neither merely narrative nor purely ornamental but a rare fusion of naturalism symbolism and psychological depth.<br /> <br /> Taken as a whole the portfolio reads as a visual cycle - grave hypnotic and occasionally disturbing -confirming the contemporary judgment that the Detmolds "prevent their work from ever sinking to the level of mere illustration." <br /> <br /> Complete portfolios are now scarce as many plates were long ago removed for framing making intact examples such as this especially prized.<br /> <br /> A report on the publication in the New York Times for 5 December 1903 stated that "the edition is strictly limited to 500 copies for England and America". This portfolio is a magnificent presentation of the Detmold brothers' celebrated book illustrations. Reviewing the London exhibition of the original artwork the Manchester Guardian commented that the Detmolds "are able to prevent their work from ever sinking to the level of mere illustration". The reviewer enthused that "the drawing of the Monkey People in the Cold Lairs who 'were not thinking of Mowgli's friends at all' is full of character subtle observation and invention. The figure of Bagheera in 'Mowgli and the Red Flower' has something of that beauty which hath terror in it. Baloo and Nag Kaa and Akela the lone wolf are brought before our eyes in a singularly convincing and engaging form". Manchester Guardian 5 November 1903. London: Macmillan & Co., Limited, 1903 unknown

The Christmas Books A Christmas Carol; The Chimes; The Cricket on the Hearth; The Battle of Life and The Haunted Man
London: Chapman & Hall / Bradbury & Evans 1843. First Edition. Near Fine. 1843 1845 1846 1846 1848. First editions of all five of Charles Dickens' Christmas Books Smith II.4-6 II.8-9. A Christmas Carol is the first issue with title page printed in red and blue dated 1843 in Roman numerals; half title and verso of title page printed in blue; "Stave I" on page 1. The Chimes first edition second issue with the publisher's name below the plate on the vignette title page. The Cricket on the Hearth first edition second issue with 2pp. ads. The Battle of Life first edition Todd's fifth state of the engraved title page with "A Love Story" in a scroll held by a cupid; terminal ads announce the publication in parts of Dombey and Son and the bound volume of Oliver Twist. The Haunted Man first edition first and only issue.<p>All five volumes bound in full polished calf with elaborate gilt seasonal stamping unique to each book. Morocco title labels to ribbed spines gilt dentelles all edges gilt. Sangorski & Sutcliffe stamp in gilt to front turn-in of each volume. Original cloth covers and spines bound in rear of all volumes but the last. Housed in an open-ended slipcase moderately rubbed and toned covered in the same floral gilt-embellished paper used for endpapers. Near Fine with slightly rubbed spines. Light edge toning to interiors occasional thumbing and staining and spots of foxing. <p>No writer is more closely associated with Christmas than Charles Dickens who began with the immortal A Christmas Carol in November 1843. It was published on December 19 and sold so well there were seven editions by the following May. The Chimes followed in December 1844 and three more books appeared in 1845 1846 and 1848 two of the title page dates follow the then-common practice of dating a book published in November or December with the coming year.<br /> <p>The enduring appeal of Dickens’ Christmas stories lies in his unmatched ability to combine sentimentality with melancholy or righteous fury a balancing act of light and dark. A Christmas Carol composed as Dickens walked weeping through the dark London streets was intended to draw attention to the plight of the working poor in London. The Chimes attacks the cruelty and hypocrisy of the rich and the protagonist of The Cricket on the Hearth contemplates murder. The Haunted Man the last novella emphasizes the need to remember past sorrows and hardships.<br /> <br /> <p>Dickens wanted his Christmas books to be pretty – his specifications for the first cut severely into his profits – and it is appropriate that these copies have been given jewel-like bindings by Sangorski & Sutcliffe one of the most famous fine binderies in the English-speaking world. A beautiful set of beautiful stories illustrated by the leading artists of the day. Chapman & Hall / Bradbury & Evans unknown

A very good or better set in a handsome signed binding by Riviere and Son.<br /> <br /> First edition later issue of this imitation of Pierce Egan's Life in London 1821. While sometimes attributed to Egan the work was possibly written by John Badcock. "Out of the sixty-five imitations of it which Egan stated that he had reckoned the most important was Real Life in London. which was published in sixpenny numbers in 1821 with excellent illustrations by Heath Alken Dighton Rowlandson and others. Real Life in London is a pleasanter book than its prototype. Some have held that Egan wrote it; but the author had a purer style a cleaner mind and a wider knowledge of London than Egan" The Cambridge History of English and American Literature. "From a bibliographical point of view one of the most complicated and bewildering books ever published rivaling Pickwick in the tangle of variant states that exist both in text and plates. The work had a tremendous success probably out-rivaling in popularity its prototype. A difficult feature of the book is that two printers. printed copies textually the same page by page with only minor variations in the settings and this coupled with the fact that during the eight or nine years it was being reprinted makes the whole vast output all 'first editions' but with innumerable states and variants that continually overlap one with the other" Abbey. "Originally published in 56 parts on completion the work was issued in boards. Later copies were bound in publisher's cloth. A book full of contrarities and difficulties for the bibliographer there being innumerable variations of the plates. The difficulties are further increased by many copies in modern bindings having been completed or made up of different issues giving combinations that are not true variations" Tooley. <br /> <br /> Printers: R.

The Hague 1759. Large folio ca. 50 x 36 cm. Pierre Gosse junior 19th-century half green morocco a red morocco label on the spine with the title in French lettered in gold marbled endpapers.

The first work shows the ceremonial mourning chamber with Princess Anna on her death bed. The plates were drawn by Pieter de Swart 1709-1772 one of the most important Dutch architects of the 18th century and engraved by Simon Fokke 1712-1784. The second work shows the funeral procession which took place in Delft on the 23rd of February in 1759 with detailed illustrations of all the heralds riflemen guards etc. that took part in the ceremony. The plates for this work were drawn by artist Paulus Constantijn la Fargue 1729-1782 and also engraved by Fokke.

When in 1747 her husband became Stadtholder of the Dutch Republic as Willem IV the couple moved from Leeuwarden to The Hague and Anna became highly involved in politics. After the death of Willem IV in 1751 she became regent for her three-year old son the later Stadtholder Willem V. In this position she played a prominent part in the political life of the Republic defending the position of the House of Orange against the republicans.The edges and corners of the boards are somewhat scuffed the boards are slightly rubbed the spine is somewhat discoloured.
