ADAM, After Robert (1728-1792)
Design of a Sedan Chair as executed for Her Majesty
London 1775. Engraving by P. Begbie. In excellent condition with the exception of some paper discolouration on the upper margin. A fine engraving of the sedan chair designed for Queen Charlotte.<br/> <br/> Robert and his brother James Adam forever changed the face of British architecture by introducing innovative Classical design ideas. From 1754-57 Robert lived in Italy where he had a long productive friendship with Piranesi which was inspirational for both men. Adam's first book on Diocletian's palace in Dalmatia is clearly very like the archaeological investigations Piranesi was making at the same time of similar ruins. Piranesi's friendship and passion for Roman Classicism were seminal influences on Adam and the greatest single factor other than his own talent in the work Adam produced on his return to England. Upon his return the brothers launched their career by building the Adelphi from the Thames to the Strand in London which although not a commercial success at the time included one of London's most cherished buildings the Adlephi Theatre. Together the Adam brothers designed and built some of the most famous buildings in England including such bastions of English architecture as Kenwood House Keddlestone Manor and Syon House. To the interiors of their English country houses the Adams brought wonderful ornamental elements in niches lunettes festoons and reliefs. Their classically designed buildings were so numerous in London that they changed the prevailing feel of the city and established their brand of neo-Classicism as the model of elegance and importance. It is asserted that the brothers originated the concept of the uniform facade attached to the typical English row house an architectural device that distinguishes London buildings. This monumental contribution is evidenced in the Adams' designs for Portland Place and Fitzroy Square and these were used as architectural models for the whole city. The brothers brought their talents into other areas by designing furniture to complement their beautiful interiors and by creating and publishing a treatise of design entitled 'Works in Architecture'. The work was published in three volumes over an extended span of time beginning in 1773 with the final volume being published posthumously in 1822.<br/> <br/> Cf. Brunet I.47; cf. Lowndes I p.8; DNB; Wilton-Ely The Mind and Art of Giovanni Battista Piranesi. unknown

Original Design of an Illumination & Transparency part of which was executed by the Command of the Queen in June 1762 In honour of His Majesty's Birthday
London 1775. Engraving by D. Cunego. Adam's design for a surprise for George III's 25th birthday<br/> <br/> Robert Adam was probably introduced to the Royal Family by Lord Bute fellow Scotsman and patron.

These were allegories showing George III as a bringer of peace and prosperity the Treaty of Paris ending the Seven Years' War had recently been signed. These painting were illuminated from behind and the overall effect must have been quite grand. Adam clearly succeeded in making a structure that was festive triumphant and regal.

ADAM, After Robert (1728-1792)
Section of one of the sides of the Great Room or Library at Kenwood
London 1774. Engraving by J. Zucchi. A fine architectural engraving of the interior of Kenwood House in Hampstead London re-modelled in 1761-1773 and now home to the Iveagh Bequest picture collection.<br/> <br/> Robert and his brother James Adam forever changed the face of British architecture by introducing innovative Classical design ideas. From 1754-57 Robert lived in Italy where he had a long productive friendship with Piranesi which was inspirational for both men. Adam's first book on Diocletian's palace in Dalmatia is clearly very like the archaeological investigations Piranesi was making at the same time of similar ruins. Piranesi's friendship and passion for Roman Classicism were seminal influences on Adam and the greatest single factor other than his own talent in the work Adam produced on his return to England. Upon his return the brothers launched their career by building the Adelphi from the Thames to the Strand in London which although not a commercial success at the time included one of London's most cherished buildings the Adelphi Theatre. Together the Adam brothers designed and built some of the most famous buildings in England including such bastions of English architecture as Kenwood House Keddlestone Manor and Syon House. To the interiors of their English country houses the Adams brought wonderful ornamental elements in niches lunettes festoons and reliefs. Their classically designed buildings were so numerous in London that they changed the prevailing feel of the city and established their brand of neo-Classicism as the model of elegance and importance. It is asserted that the brothers originated the concept of the uniform facade attached to the typical English row house an architectural device that distinguishes London buildings. This monumental contribution is evidenced in the Adams' designs for Portland Place and Fitzroy Square and these were used as architectural models for the whole city. The brothers brought their talents into other areas by designing furniture to complement their beautiful interiors and by creating and publishing a treatise of design entitled 'Works in Architecture'. The work was published in three volumes over an extended span of time beginning in 1773 with the final volume being published posthumously in 1822.<br/> <br/> Cf. Brunet I.47; cf. Lowndes I p.8; DNB; Wilton-Ely The Mind and Art of Giovanni Battista Piranesi. unknown

Tribulations Parisiennes et Campagnardes 12 of 16 leaves
Paris: Hautecoeur Freres; lithographed by Godard 1860. No stated edition. Unbound sheets. Good many plates foxed but the coloring is bright. Adam Albert. Dozens of humorous equestrian escapades are shown in color lithographs on 12 of 16 original leaves. Each leaf contains two sets of scenes for a total of 24 of 32 scenes. Lacks title page and covers if any. Ca. 9 x 13 inches. In French. In these lithographs all kinds of hapless riders and drivers in town and country come to grief in many imaginative ways. The scenes are numbered 1 through 22 and 29-30. This is item 361 in the magnificent Dejager collection Great Books on Horsemanship. The Dejager set is lacking plate 4 scenes 7 and 8 which we believe is present in our set. Very scarce; WorldCat cites a handful of locations in great libraries. Albert Adam 1832/33-1900 was well known for his illustrations of mid-19th-century French equestrian life especially the portfolio Ecole Imperiale de Cavalerie Saumur. Shipping/handling will be extra; please keep this in mind when ordering. Sold as a group as is. Hautecoeur Freres; lithographed by Godard unknown
