(FACSIMILES - MODERN ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPTS)
RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM. REPRODUCED FROM A MANUSCRIPT WRITTEN AND ILLUMINATED BY F. SANGORSKI & G. SUTCLIFFE
London: Siegle Hill and Company 1910. No. 154 OF 550 COPIES printed on handmade paper and SIGNED BY SANGORSKI AND SUTCLIFFE on the limitations page. 343 x 258 mm. 13 1/2 x 10". 2 p.l. 6 pp. 19 leaves 1 16 1 pp. 11 leaves. Translated by Edward FitzGerald. With an introduction by A. C. Benson. <br/> Original vellum boards featuring a peacock within an elaborate gilt frame by Sangorski & Sutcliffe with "Rd. No. 562943" in small letters at foot indicating the firm's registered design smooth spine with gilt decoration and maroon morocco label top edge gilt others untrimmed. In a later woodgrain slipcase. Numerous decorative initials designed by Alberto Sangorski printed in gold and colors and 12 COLOR PLATES including a particularly elaborate title and first page with illustrations designed by E. Geddes. Printed in red and black. Potter 81; Paas 4120. â—†Binding with half a dozen small yellow stains spine lightly soiled label with a couple small scratches plates with light speckled gray strip at leaf edges from printing process otherwise quite pleasing--very fresh internally printed on high quality paper and in a solid scarcely worn binding without any of the usual splaying that vellum invites.<br/> <br/> This is limited edition facsimile of an original manuscript illuminated and written out by Alberto Sangorski and illustrated by Ewan Geddes based on FitzGerald's enduringly popular translation of Omar Khayyam. It is a very attractive and well-preserved facsimile of the fine work produced by Sangorski & Sutcliffe when the firm was at the top of their game. After studying under and then working for Douglas Cockerell Francis Sangorski and George Sutcliffe founded their own bindery in 1901 and continued in a successful partnership until 1912. During that year the firm suffered three major blows: their famously splendid jewelled binding dubbed the "Great Omar" was lost on the Titanic; a few weeks after this accident Francis himself drowned; and Francis' brother Alberto who had been a central figure in producing the firm's vellum illuminated manuscripts went over to Riviere. Despite these losses the firm grew and prospered employing a staff of 80 by the mid-1920s and becoming perhaps the most successful English bindery of the 20th century. Though he was best known for his watercolor scenes of rural and winter landscapes Scottish artist Ewan Geddes 1866-1935 abandons his usual restrained palette in this collaboration with Sangorski & Sutcliffe employing instead a colorful array of paints that capture the warmth and sensuous lyricism of the text.

Avril, F. ; Stirnemann, PD. ; Bibliotheque nationale, Departement des manuscrits ; Centre de recherches sur les manuscrits enl
Manuscrits Enluminés d'Origine Insulaire VIIe-XXe Siècle
Bibliothèque nationale Paris first edition 1987. Cloth large 8vo 31 cm. xvi 235 pp 16 colour plates and 256 black-and-white ills on 109 plates. 260 entries. A detailed catalogue of 260 manuscripts in the collection of the Bibliothèque Nationale dating from the seventh century the Echtemach Gospels MS lat. 9389 onwards and either originating in the British Isles or illuminated by continental artisans clearly and strongly influenced by Insular forms. From a review by Robert G. Calkins in Speculum: "The entries are chronologically arranged insofar as possible and include all manuscripts containing any decoration beyond the slightest scribal embellishment without regard to aesthetic criteria. . Almost all manuscripts are illustrated with black-and-white photographs providing details of secondary as well as major decorations.The result is a thorough overview that presents a more balanced visual array of the total production than is usually found in catalogues of illuminated manuscripts. We can discover the range of decoration produced during a given period as well as follow the development of various decorative forms through the centuries
the detailed description of manuscripts either previously unpublished or only cursorily mentioned in the literature provides a solid basis for further scholarship. Indeed this catalogue takes its place as an essential companion not only to the previous volumes presenting the collection of the Bibliothèque Nationale but also to the series edited by J. J. G. Alexander A Survey of Manuscripts Illuminated in the British Isles.". Very Good. Bibliothèque nationale, Paris, first edition, 1987 hardcover

Robert Hardwicke London first edition 1866. Cloth over bevelled boards gilt cover title within decorative gilt border small 4to 23 cm. iv 1 37pp 234 numbered plates of facs. From the preface: "The interest arising from the examination of autographic writings of distinguished persons is always greatly increased when the specimen under observation relates to some important and well-known event in the life of the writer. To obtain specimens of this description the author of the present work has given the greatest attention and whenever it was in his power he has chosen a letter or document bearing some striking illustration of the character calling or principal work of the writer.The specimens given in this work have been chiefly selected from manuscripts in the the National Collection. Spine-ends slightly bumped and a little chipped at foot slightly rubbed front endpapers cracked at hinge and rear joint a little pulled exposing the tecomuslin slightly shaken otherwise Good.
