‎To face Globe‎

‎Tavola astronomica tratta dall’A New Royal and Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, London 1770-1771, Printed of J. Cooke  Si tratta di un’opera in due grandi volumi, cm 35,5 x 23,5, rispettivamente pubblicati a Londra nel 1770 e nel 1771, che raccoglie in ordine alfabetico alcune centinaia di voci illustranti sia le conoscenze scientifiche e tecnologiche che lo sviluppo delle arti e dei mestieri dell’epoca.  Le singole voci, scritte dai più autorevoli esperti europei, sono state poi riviste e redazionate da M. Hinde per il settore relativo all’anatomia, medicina e chimica, da W. Squire per le matematiche, da T. Marshall per la Botanica e da Thomas Cooke per le materie umanistiche. Centouno tavole prodotte da relative incisioni su rame illustrano i due volumi. Le incisioni, equamente ripartite sui vari saperi, riproducono sia soggetti della natura che i più aggiornati strumenti usati per indagarla. Una considerevole parte riguarda invece gli strumenti di lavoro delle varie arti e mestieri. L’opera è giunta a noi in pochissimi esemplari, se ne conoscono soltanto ventitré copie, in quanto le piastre in rame furono in un primo momento confiscate, prima della stampa, dalla Court of Chancery of London in conseguenza del fallimento dell’editore di Bevis, Johan Neale. Le ventitré copie conosciute fanno parte di una tiratura prodotta successivamente nel 1786 da John Horsfall, l’esecutore testamentario di Bevis, con il titolo di Atlas Celeste. Per il momento è ancora da ricostruire la storia di come le dodici tavole contenute nell’A New Royal and Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences abbiano potuto anticipare di circa quindici anni la diffusione degli originali che imitano.  L’enciclopedia, oggi abbastanza rara e quasi non indagata dalla critica, subì l’influsso della più conosciuta e più antica Cyclopaedia: Or An Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences di Ephraim Chambers (ca. 1680-1740), pubblicata in Inghilterra nel 1728 (cfr. Felice Stoppa, Atlas Coelestis, http://www.atlascoelestis.com/Universal%20dictionary%20pagina.htm).  Incisione in rame, finemente colorata a mano, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Astronomical plate taken from A New Royal and Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, London 1770-1771, Printed of J. Cooke  This is a work in two large volumes, 35.5 x 23.5 cm, respectively published in London in 1770 and 1771, which collects in alphabetical order a few hundred entries illustrating both scientific and technological knowledge and the development of arts and crafts of the time.  The single entries, written by the most authoritative European experts, were then revised and edited by M. Hinde for the field related to anatomy, medicine and chemistry, by W. Squire for mathematics, by T. Marshall for Botany and by Thomas Cooke for the humanities. One hundred and one plates produced by relative copper engravings illustrate the two volumes. The engravings, equally divided among the various fields of knowledge, reproduce both natural subjects and the most up-to-date instruments used to investigate them. A considerable part concerns instead the working tools of the various arts and crafts. The work has come down to us in very few copies, only twenty-three copies are known, because the copper plates were initially confiscated, before printing, by the Court of Chancery of London as a result of the bankruptcy of the publisher of Bevis, Johan Neale. The twenty-three known copies are part of a print run produced later in 1786 by John Horsfall, the executor of Bevis' will, under the title of Atlas Celeste. For the moment, the story of how the twelve plates contained in A New Royal and Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences were able to anticipate by about fifteen years the diffusion of the originals they imitate is still to be reconstructed.  The encyclopedia, now quite rare and almost unexamined by critics, was influenced by the better known and older Cyclopaedia: Or An Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences by Ephraim Chambers (ca. 1680-1740), published in England in 1728 (see Felice Stoppa, Atlas Coelestis, http://www.atlascoelestis.com/Universal%20dictionary%20pagina.htm).‎

‎The Art of the Regent‎

‎102 pages. A sumptuously presented selection of the art collection displayed in The Regent in Hong Kong. This is a collection carefully acquired not only for its aesthetic beauty but also for the elements of oriental symbolism that are represented. Includes fine examples of skilfully executed screens, lacquerware and embroidery. There are specimens of Chinese export wallpaper, and several nineteenth-century China Trade oil paintings. These became popular as artistic records of the cultural and trading contacts of their period and are now collector's items. The selection of maps traces the pattern of adventure and romantic trade and travel over the centuries. Finally, a group of contemporary works pleasantly relate the collection to modern artistic trends. All illustrations in vivid colour photography. Attractive maroon cloth boards bear imprint of Chinese characters upon front board and gilt roman lettering upon spine. Illustrated slipcase shows light edgewear and several nicks. Book and slipcase bear the aroma of moth balls. Book‎
