‎Patrick Ireland - Drawings 1965-1985.‎

‎1986. Washington D.C. Published for the National Museum of American Art by the Smithsonian Institution Press 1986. Quarto 23 cm wide x 23 cm high. 63 pages / With illustrations some color. Softcover. Very good condition with only minor signs of wear. During the Irish Exhibition of Living Art at the Project Arts Centre in 1972 Brian OÂ’Doherty in a performance before 30 invited witnesses and assisted by artists Robert Ballagh and Brian King undertook to sign his artworks Patrick Ireland ‘until such time as the British military presence is removed from Northern Ireland and all citizens are granted their civil rightsÂ’. That commitment often seen as controversial was described by OÂ’Doherty as ‘an expatriateÂ’s gesture in response to Bloody Sunday in DerryÂ’. After 36 years of making art as Patrick Ireland OÂ’Doherty reclaimed his birth name with the symbolic burial of his alter ego in the grounds of IMMA on the afternoon of Tuesday 20 May 2008. The burial was a gesture of reconciliation to celebrate the restoration of peace in Northern Ireland. ‘We are burying hateÂ’ stated OÂ’Doherty ‘itÂ’s not often you get the chance to do thatÂ’.

‎Stultifera Navis The Modern Ship of Fools‎

‎Philadelphia: For C. And A. Conrad and Co 1807. First American Edition. Small Octavo. 295pp. First translated into English by Alexander Barclay in 1508. Stultifera Navis was originally the work of Sebastian Brant a Dutchman who composed the book in his native language. It was then translated into Latin by Jame Locherm a disciple of Brant's then translated into French by an unknown hand. The author or editor of this edition states that he merely copied a part of Barclay's title page and inserted the running heads of many of his section. He did not want to be branded with the stigma of plagiarism when his work is entirely original. Though he was a forger of Shakespearean letters and papers. Bound in full calf handsomely rebacked to style black leather spine label and rules in gilt endpapers with foxing and an occasional spots of foxing or staining to leaves. From the library of Ezera Wilkinson whose library sold at auction in 1882 with a note written by him on the front end sheets "Steal not this book." A very good copy. For C. And A.

‎THE SCENERY AND ANTIQUITIES OF IRELAND Illustrated from Drawings by W. H. Bartlett; The Literary Portion of the Work by J. Stirling Coyne Esq.‎

‎London: George Virtue 1841. 2 volumes. Beautifully illustrated with a full page engraved map and 122 plates including the two pictorially engraved title-pages all by W.H. Bartlett complete as called for. Quarto publisher's original Irish green cloth the spines gilt decorated with gilt lettering and elaborate pictorial Irish motifs the covers with all over designs stamped in blind and with a central gilt pictorial ornament surrounded by vines and flowers gilt all edges gilt one of the most preferred of the bindings used by the publisher's to present this fine work. vi 1794 ads.; iv 186 pp. A really pleasing copy of this fine work both volumes beautifully preserved and in essentially fine condition the light wear or evidence of age comes primarily from shelving the plates and text-blocks are in fresh and clean condition with only very occasional evidence of the usual spotting to which the paper is prone. As usual the engraved titles with a bit more of the spotting. Generally a very clean and handsome set in unusually nice condition. AN ESPECIALLY BEAUTIFUL WORK FILLED WITH PICTURESQUE STEEL ENGRAVED SCENES OF IRELAND. William Bartlett traveled extensively throughout Europe and the East with his good friend Dr. Beattie and brought home over a thousand drawings. Eventually they were engraved and published into volumes with descriptive text. Here we find one of one of Bartlett's best works partly attributable to the magnificent scenery of the country described. Each engraving combines attention to detail subtle use of lighting and shade and romantic portrayal of the landscape. Scenes are rendered from virtually every corner of the country and include both natural and architectural compositions.<br> The text focuses heavily on the history of each locale but also includes local customs sights and first hand travel impressions. A somewhat elusive title in the Bartlett oeuvre these illustrations of Ireland are typical of his best and most famous work. George Virtue hardcover‎
