A "mixed" set vol. iii is a second edition dated 1867 but see Wise complete in three volumes of Ruskin's exhaustive examination of Venetian architecture of the Byzantine Gothic and Renaissance periods in the publisher's original matched bindings identical to those of the first. Wise surmises that some sets "are evidentially 'remainders' of the Second edition with new title pages" and that seems to be the case here. Limited to 1500 copies signed by the author on final page of preface. Royal 8vo 258 x 170mm: xxii400; viii394; 4362pp with 53 engraved lithographed and mezzotint plates protected by guard tissues including seven hand-colored and wood engraved illustrations in the text all after drawings by Ruskin. Publisher's original chocolate brown decorative cloth covers with elaborate floral design in blind framing keyhole vignette in gilt drawn from plate XI of vol. II spines stamped in blind and in gilt crowned by Lion of St. Mark's top edges gilt others rough-trimmed terracotta end papers. Some small areas of darkening to covers; rear hinge of vol. 2 partly cracked else a superb tightly bound set fresh and bright throughout with fine renditions of the plates. Wise 297. PMM 315. Shepherd 28. Ray Illustrator and the Book in England 31 ". . . an impressive book if not a harmonious one.". The Third Edition called the Autograph Edition and the first in which all three volumes were published together. One of the key texts of the aesthetic movement first published from 1851 to 1853 immediately becoming "a revolutionary success" PMM. "Mainly a treatise on architecture John Ruskin's The Stones of Venice was meant to apply to the buildings of Venice the general principles enunciated in his Seven Lamps of Architecture 1848. It moves however beyond the earlier work's abstract treatment not only because it dedicates substantial attention to the details of architectural construction but also because it places architecture within its social political moral and religious context. Volume I 'The Foundations' discusses the edifices of Venice and their functional and ornamental aspects and presents a brief history of the city; in Volume II 'The Sea Stories' Ruskin turned his thoughts to the Byzantine period and the climactic development of Venetian life its Gothic period which meant to him 'not only the best but the only rational architecture' while Renaissance architecture 'is pure in its insipidity and subtle in its vice'. Crucially it is in Volume III 'The Fall' which also includes the alphabetical guide to the most important buildings of all periods the Venetian Index that Ruskin puts forth his thesis that the onset of the Renaissance caused the city's architectural decline; he felt that architecture had lost all of the moral character he had described so eloquently in his earlier volumes and has instead been turned into the 'perpetuation in stone of the ribaldries of drunkenness' and rowdiness." Literary Encyclopedia The three volumes were the "product of the most concentrated period of study in Ruskin's life including two long winters spent in Venice from November 1849 to March 1850 and September 1851 to the end of June 1852. . . . Its importance lies not in its hostility to the Renaissance but in its celebration of the Byzantine and the Gothic which had an immediate effect on Victorian architects who began to introduce Romanesque forms and Venetian and Veronese colour and sculptural features into their designs."

The Monster and Other Stories
New York: Harper & Brothers 1899. First Edition. Decorative Cloth. Near Fine. First Printing of Crane's neglected late novella. Crown 8vo 190 x 124mm: 61893pp with frontispiece and eleven full-page plates with drawings in text. Publisher's scarlet V cloth upper cover and spine lettered in gilt three black medallions linked by chain beneath cover title; top edge stained scarlet others untrimmed. Owner's neat stamp on front and back end papers gift inscription in pencil on fly leaf dated June 30 1903. Mild darkening to spine but less so than usual covers lightly dust-soiled else an excellent example tightly bound spotless pages and plates. BAL 4085. Stallman 23. Williams & Starrett 23. Wright III 1255. The title novella originally appeared in the August 1898 issue of Harper's Magazine with illustrations by Peter Newell. A year later it was published in book form with two short stories by Crane "The Blue Hotel" and "His New Mittens." The first British edition which added an additional four stories was published in 1901. The Monster was Crane's first story to feature the fictional town of Whilomville which would eventually serve as the setting of 14 stories. An African-American coachman named Henry Johnson who is employed by the town's physician Dr. Trescott becomes horribly disfigured after he saves Trescott's son from a fire. When Henry is branded a "monster" by the town's residents Trescott vows to shelter and care for him resulting in his family's exclusion from the community. Written in a more exact and less dramatic style than The Red Badge of Courage The Monster received mixed reviews from contemporary critics but is now considered one of Crane's best works. adapted from Wikipedia N.

Very rare first edition of the official exhibition catalogue of Ceylon at the Paris World Fair of 1900 lavishly produced and illustrated by George Justin Athelstan Skeen the Ceylon Government printer from 1881 to 1906 who exhibited his own products at the fair. One section of the Sri Lankan fair stand was devoted to photography and all photographers exhibiting contributed to the book: Cane author of Golden Tips Skeen A.W. Andree & Co and A. W. A. Plate & Co. as well as Andree & Sligh Ltd the latter being responsible for the colour printing of the binding. The company applied the then pioneering three-colour printing technique to be used soon afterwards in A. & C. Black colour books. Of course the main focus of this volume is tea production and export; however all other aspects of Sri Lanka are described and illustrated from ethnography and society infrastructure and agriculture commerce art and natural history with some impressive scenes of elephants working being washed and in the wild.

The Seven Lamps of Architecture. With Illustrations Drawn and Etched by the Author Original Cloth

First Printing of Ruskin's landmark work the only printing in which all of the plates were "etched as well as drawn by Mr. Ruskin's own hand a fact which adds very considerably to the interest and value of the book." Wise; see preface to third edition of 1880 for Ruskin's comment Royal 8vo 256 x 170mm: viii4205116pp with 14 mostly tissue-guarded plates and errata slip tipped in before "B." Original publisher's maroon cloth covers decorated in blind based on floor design of San Miniato in Florence spine lettered in gilt top edge gilded others rough-trimmed. Excellent repair to head of spine else an excellent example clean bright and very fresh occasional stain or finger-soiling to text isolated areas of light foxing with fine renditions of plates. Wise 4. Shepherd 24. The first of Ruskin's works to carry his name and the first to be illustrated. The book's raison d'être set out in the preface is clear: "He wished to protect what survived and draw from it certain principles which would influence the direction of the Gothic revival notably towards the use of Gothic in secular buildings. His purpose was both to secularize and make protestant the movement drawing it away from the Roman Catholic influence of Augustus Welby Pugin. His intervention was theoretical rather than practical: the 'lamps' of architecture were moral categories-sacrifice truth power beauty life memory and obedience. . . . but for Ruskin were manifested in particular Gothic buildings in Italy and northern France."
