Arbor consanguineitatis cum suis enigmatibus [e]t figuris. (Nuremberg, Hieronymus Höltzel, 23 December 1506).
4to. (23) ff. Printed in red and black. With full-page woodcut on verso of title-page and 15 woodcut genealogical diagrams, some full-page. Modern half vellum over marbled boards. Important collection of commentaries on the canon law of marriage and inheritance among blood relations; a standard work of the Middle Ages that saw more than 59 incunabular editions. Compared to Höltzel's first issue, produced in 1505, the present edition has been expanded by 5 leaves. Of the 15 woodcuts showing various degrees of relation, six are by Hans Baldung Grien, whose first works of woodcut book illustration these are. The new woodcut on leaf e2v ist not by Baldung, but by an imitator. The finely printed woodcut on the verso of the title-page, the work of an unidentified artist, shows St. Jerome kneeling before a crucifix with a fortified city in the background. - Trimmed rather closely with insignificant loss to some of the printed marginal glosses.

GALATÉE ROMAN PASTORAL; IMITÉ DE CERVANTES . . . ÉDITION ORNÉE DE FIGURES EN COULEURS D'APRÈS LES DESSINS DE M. MONSIAU
Paris: Defer de Maisonneuve 1793. First Edition with these Illustrations. 350 x 262 mm. 13 3/4 x 10 1/4". 125 pp. <br/> VERY PRETTY 19TH CENTURY CRIMSON MOROCCO ELEGANTLY GILT covers framed with floral tools raised bands spine panels filled with rows of flower-and-lozenge roll gilt lettering gilt turn-ins top edges gilt. FOUR FINE STIPPLE-ENGRAVED PLATES by Colibert and Cazenave after Monsiau PRINTED IN COLORS. A Large Paper Copy. Cohen-de Ricci 400; Furstenberg 122; Lewine p. 188; Maggs 1930 Catalogue of French Illustrated Books 84; Ray p. 145. Occasional minor foxing the margins of one plate foxed a bit more otherwise a fine copy clean and fresh internally with immense margins the plates with pleasing colors and the unworn binding bright with gilt.<br/> <br/> This is an especially tall copy of Florian's pastoral romance in imitation of Cervantes one of the grander French books to be printed in colors when the vogue for such productions took hold during the last years of the 18th century. Ours is one of six such books all printed after 1786 that Ray singles out for praise as "handsome and imposing volumes." A noted painter of both classical and modern subjects Monsiau 1754-1837 was also an illustrator whose "abundant and interesting work in this line" is underrated even though it has the merits of being simple natural lively and piquant. Ray Monsiau's obscurity says Ray may be owing to the fact that he most often worked as a secondary collaborator on major illustrated works; the present book is one of the few he did on his own and it is among his best. Publisher Defer de Maisonneuve did not originate the technique of stipple engraving on copper plates but he did perfect the process which allowed for gradual tonal changes in hues and intensities of color rather than the "stained glass" effect of separately printed patches of color. Given the turmoil of the period when this book was published it is quite likely that it did not have an especially decorative original binding and may have remained in publisher's boards as was often the case. Happily a later owner supplied a period-appropriate binding here that matches the opulence of the contents. While our copy has the engraver's name just visible beneath the plates perhaps disqualifying them as the "avant la lettre" versions used in the Large Paper Copies per Cohen-de Ricci the size of the margins here and the quality of the paper certainly argue for that designation.

PICTURES AND SONGS FOR THE LITTLE ONES AT HOME
COLOR PRINTING PICTURES AND SONGS FOR THE LITTLE ONES AT HOME. London: Thomas Nelson and Sons 1865. 8vo. Publisher's cloth. 16 leaves printed on one side only with 15 color plates. First edition. This is a very nice example of color printing by Thomas Nelson who used a transfer lithography method very similar to Baxter's color printing technique In it Nelson transferred the images from steel engravings as opposed to Baxte taking his images from wood blocks. Then Nelson used oil based colors to pri the image as did Baxter producing very bright and vivid colors. The color images in this book are quite small 1 1/2 x 1 3/4 inches and are pasted on pages all printed in brown ink with gold borders and vignettes that surround the color plates. Some sporadic foxing and slight cover discoloration but a good example of a seldom seen Victorian method of color printing. unknown

PRACTICAL HINTS ON DECORATIVE PRINTING WITH ILLUSTRATIONS ENGRAVED ON WOOD AND PRINTED IN COLOURS
London: Published for the Proprietor by Longman Hurst Rees Orme and Brown 1822 1823. FIRST EDITION ONE OF 227 COPIES. 288 x 220 mm. 11 3/8 x 8 5/8". 3 p.l. vi 2 100 8 103-118 pp. 2 leaves. <br/> Pleasing 20th century rich green crushed morocco gilt-framed covers and smooth spine gilt lettering to spine edges untrimmed. In a burgundy calf-backed clamshell box meant for this book but for some reason substantially larger green morocco title label on spine. WITH 60 ENGRAVED ILLUSTRATIONS as called for in Abbey 48 PRINTED IN COLORS including decorative title page dedication with Earl Spencer's coat of arms six plates with a total of 18 color ink specimens two type specimen plates four engravings of printing presses Columbian Press in two states one before letters nine defaced plates printed recto-verso and six headpieces three color printed 28 engraved plates printed in colors: five in a single block six in two to four blocks 14 in five to nine blocks and three full-color in 13 14 and 29 blocks respectively as called for in the contents and in Abbey. Front pastedown with the bookplate of the Robin Collection. Abbey Life 233; Ray "England" 99. Occasional mild thumbing otherwise nothing but the most trivial imperfections--quite a fine copy internally clean and fresh with pleasing colors in a very appealing unworn binding.<br/> <br/> This virtuoso production was in Ray's opinion Savage's magnum opus a work that was "both a highly idiosyncratic volume and a notable landmark in the history of color printing from wood." Printer and engraver William Savage 1770-1843 was in Ruari McLean's words "the first true colour printer of the nineteenth century in England." One of his great innovations which made possible color printing as seen here was a new formulation of ink. DNB reports "Printing ink in England at that time was of a very poor quality and Savage by various experiments made a printing ink without any oil in its composition. This made it more serviceable for artistic work and easier to manufacture." Savage's inks transferred so cleanly from the engraved wooden block to the paper that the blocks did not have to be wiped between impressions--speeding up the process considerably especially when as here one image could require up to 29 colored blocks. The oil-free inks were also less inclined to smear or to bleed through the paper. While Savage's elaborate methods were not economically viable for mass printing of color-illustrated works his improvements to printing ink and his use of multiple blocks paved the way for the use of chromolithography. The engravings in this work are rare because the work was strictly limited and because Savage despite some protests fulfilled his promise to subscribers that all the blocks would be destroyed. While the plate count in the work can vary from copy to copy the present item collates as indicated by the table of contents and includes Clymer's Columbian Press plate in two states as called for by Abbey. This work appears on the market from time to time but seldom in the kind of agreeable condition seen here. Published for the Proprietor by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme, and Brown unknown

(COLOR PRINTING, EARLY). (COSTUMES). LE VACHER DE CHARNOIS, JEAN CHARLES
RECHERCHES SUR LES COSTUMES ET SUR LES THÉATRES DE TOUTES LES NATIONS TANT ANCIENNES QUE MODERNES
Paris: Drouhin 1790. FIRST EDITION. 265 x 205 mm. 10 3/8 x 8". Two volumes. <br/> VERY ATTRACTIVE CONTEMPORARY MARBLED CALF GILT IN A NEOCLASSICAL DESIGN covers with a cresting palmette frame featuring ornate urn ornaments at corners flat spine divided into compartments by Greek key roll floral spray centerpieces one green and one black label marbled endpapers. With 55 PLATES OF COSTUMES designed by Philippe Chéry and engraved by Pierre-Michel Alix 50 of these PRINTED IN COLOR five in black and white a couple of these with color highlights applied by hand and with a color portrait of the author from the 1802 edition tipped in at front. Colas 717; Hiler p. 542; Lipperheide 3203; Cohen-de Ricci 227; Brunet IV 1135. One corner worn to board joints and extremities lightly rubbed but the bindings lustrous and generally very attractive. First volume slightly browned throughout second volume occasionally so volume II with two-inch marginal stain to upper gutter affecting four quires and six plates but not touching text or images two plates with pen marks in margins touching lettering but not image other trivial defects but still an excellent copy internally the colors especially clear and pleasing.<br/> <br/> This is an elegant production with the Neoclassical binding being the perfect complement to the color engravings of ancient Greek and Roman costumes that illustrate the present history of theatrical attire. In the two volumes here theater critic and historian Jean Charles Le Vacher de Charnois 1749-92 covers Classical tragedies and comedies as well as later interpretations of these dramas by playwrights including Racine. Le Vacher de Charnois intended a series of books encompassing as the title indicates theatrical costumes from all nations and from the ancient to the modern; however the French Revolution interrupted his scheme and as a monarchist he was imprisoned in 1792 for his writings in support of the aristocracy. It was long thought that he had died in the massacres at the Abbaye prison in September of that year but later research indicates that he may have been executed during the Reign of Terror in 1794. The artists who illustrated this work were at the opposite end of the political spectrum. Painter Philippe Chéry 1759-1838 studied with Jacques-Louis David and adopted his master's passionate support for the Revolution as well as his Neoclassical style. Engraver Pierre-Michel Alix 1762-1817 was a specialist in color printing best known for his portraits of leaders of the French Revolution and later of Napoleon and First Empire dignitaries. While the handsome binding here is unsigned the palmette roll on the covers is very similar but not identical to one used by Bozerian see Culot "Jean-Claude Bozerian" roll #44 and plate #XXIV. Perhaps our binder had trained in that atelier as the design and workmanship are certainly of that level. Drouhin unknown

(COLOR PRINTING). (GEOCENTRIC ASTRONOMY, 19TH CENTURY). (MUGGLETONIANS). FROST, ISAAC
TWO SYSTEMS OF ASTRONOMY: FIRST THE NEWTONIAN SYSTEM . . . : SECOND THE SYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE HOLY SCRIPTURES
London: Printed by Catchpool & Trent for Simpkin Marshall & Co 1846. FIRST EDITION. 320 x 255 mm. 12 1/2 x 10". xiii 3 96 pp. <br/> Publisher's original blind-decorated dun-colored cloth gilt titling to upper cover smooth spine newer endpapers. WITH 11 COLOR ENGRAVINGS after Frost by W. P. Chubb & Son printed in oil colors by George Baxter all with original tissue guards. Front free endpaper with small ink signature of John Hill. See: Francis Reid "Isaac Frost's 'Two Systems of Astronomy' 1846: Plebeian Resistance and Scriptural Astronomy" in "The British Journal for the History of Science" Vol. 38 No. 2 Jun. 2005 pp. 161-177. Cloth rather spotted corners bumped but the binding solid with no wear to joints or hinges. A few spots of foxing to title page half of the tissue guards with overall very faint foxing/browning the illustrations with minor foxing at edges and in margins but the images themselves clean and bright and all in all a really excellent copy the text wide-margined and quite clean and fresh and the plates with rich coloring.<br/> <br/> Illustrated with beautiful color plates this anti-Newtonian work promotes a view of the universe based on the backward-looking beliefs professed by a Protestant sect known as the Muggletonians. Named after co-founder Lodowicke Muggleton the Muggletonians emerged in London in 1651 based on the claims of two tailors who professed to be the "Last Witnesses" described in the Book of Revelation. Rejecting the new directions in philosophical reason Muggletonians believed in a purely scriptural interpretation of the universe. According to E. P. Thompson's 1994 "Witness Against the Beast" the Muggletonians had curious notions quite contrary to other Protestant denominations: they believed that the soul is mortal that Jesus and God are one and the same that Heaven was left without divine supervision from Jesus' death until the day of judgment that Heaven resides six miles above the Earth that God stands between five and six feet tall and other unconventional things. Although the sect initially avoided both worship and evangelizing during the 19th century some followers became more outspoken about their beliefs and even published books appealing to the general public. Our author Isaac Frost 1793-1858 was a prominent Muggletonian and successful owner of a brass foundry who along with his brother Joseph invested large sums to promote their belief system--the present work being an especially notable example. Divided into two main sections the text first describes the Newtonian system of heliocentric astronomy and then turns to Frost's scriptural interpretation and geocentric views. As Reid tells us "According to Frost Scripture clearly states that the Sun the Moon and the Stars are embedded in a firmament made of congealed water and revolve around the Earth that Heaven has a physical reality above and beyond the stars and that the planets and the Moon do not reflect the Sun's rays but are themselves independent sources of light. Our book was apparently written as a reaction against the lecturers who expressed Newtonian astronomy--which was often for them and their audiences simply shorthand for heliocentrism." The 11 plates that illustrate these extraordinary ideas are the work of George Baxter a pioneering printer who revolutionized color printing techniques by combining metal engravings with woodblock printing using oil-based inks to produce high-quality affordable prints. The plates here are appropriately ethereal and otherworldly utilizing a beautiful palette with subtle gradations and esoteric figures to create memorable pseudo-scientific imagery. Although this work appears at auction with some regularity it is almost always incomplete no doubt because the attractiveness of its plates encourages harvesting. Useful price comparisons include a complete copy said to be in fine condition selling for £7500 in 2016 and six loose prints from the book fetching £6875 in 2015.

(ESSEX HOUSE: VELLUM PRINTING) CHAUCER, Geoffrey
The Flower and the Leaf.
London: Edwin Arnold 1902. Limited to 165 numbered copies on vellum at the Essex House Press under C. R. Ashbee. Small octavo. 45 1 pp. Hand-colored frontispiece and two full-page hand-colored illustrations and eighty-five hand-colored ornamental letters by Edith Harwood. Tail-piece. Caslon type. Publisher's vellum with rose and gilt lettering to front cover. Bit of natural mottling to vellum. Custom folding cloth chemise and slipcase. A very good copy.Great Poems Series No. 6. "In 1886 C.R. Ashbee established the Guild of Handicraft at Essex House London. Around the same time Ashbee created the Essex House Press. The Essex House Press published its first book in 1898. The work of the press was very much a part of the Arts and Crafts Movement. Ashbee continually linked the aims of the press with those of John Ruskin and William Morris and described the object of the movement as “making useful things…making them well and…making them beautiful.†The critics however were not so sure about the work of Essex House Press calling it “articraftiness.†Later booklovers came to admire much of its work. Some of the presses and some of the workmen for Essex House Press came from the Kelmscott Press after its demise in 1897 following the death of William Morris. Ashbee designed his own typeface called “Endeavor†for the press. In 1902 the press moved to Glouscestershire. The Essex House Press closed in 1910 having produced more than seventy titles."

(FRENCH ILLUSTRATED BOOKS). (COLOR PRINTING). MONTESQUIEU, [CHARLES DE SECONDAT]
LE TEMPLE DE GNIDE SUIVI D'ARSACE ET ISMÉNIE
Paris: P. Didot l'aîné 1796. ONE OF 100 COPIES. 330 x 235 mm. 13 x 9 1/4". 2 p.l. 165 1 pp. <br/> Original gray boards flat spine dark gray paper title label two-thirds of the leaves UNOPENED. Engraved printer's device on title page and SEVEN FINE COLOR-PRINTED ENGRAVINGS AFTER PEYRON BY CHAPUY AND LAVALLÉE SOME FINISHED BY HAND. Cohen-de Ricci 730; Brunet III 1860. ◆A couple of very small brown spots and just a hint of soiling as well as minor abrasions to covers corners somewhat mashed as expected isolated trivial foxing to text but A VERY FINE COPY clean and bright internally with vividly colored plates and in a surprisingly sturdy and generally well-preserved original temporary publisher's binding.<br/> <br/> This is the fine Levy copy of a strictly limited Large Paper edition of a handsomely illustrated work offered here in what seem to be the publisher's temporary boards mostly unopened and virtually untouched internally. Attractively printed with enormous margins the text of the first and by far the most important work here is a prose poem on love supposedly translated from the Greek by one of the great political philosophers of the Enlightenment Charles de Secondat Baron de Montesquieu 1689-1755. In its own day the work was popular largely because of its racy content; today it is considered as a more serious accomplishment by modern scholars who are inclined to see it as a philosophical fable. The colophon informs us that this limited edition was printed with a new type cut and cast by Firmin Didot "with such perfection that up to this moment none other can equal it." The dramatic and animated plates are strikingly different from the Eisen engravings in other editions of this work and are more modern in sensibility than the usual 18th century French engravings. The colophon notes that the plates were broken after the 100 copies of this edition were printed. Our copy was in the outstanding library of American bibliophile Jacques Levy 1905-80 a man of wide-ranging interests who assembled an eclectic collection over 40 years always with a discriminating eye toward visually pleasing and historically important bindings and illustration. In his sale Sotheby's described our binding as being publisher's boards and although the volume seems almost too well preserved to be original we are persuaded by the collector's reputation that this is the correct characterization.

(GOLD PRINTING). WELLESLEY, ARTHUR, DUKE OF WELLINGTON
THE WELLINGTON SOUVENIR -- A GOLDEN RECORD!
London: Simpkin & Marshall 1852. FIRST EDITION. 153 x 102 mm. 6 x 4". 64 pp. <br/> Publisher's deluxe red pebble-grain morocco gilt covers with graceful Romantic-style frame central panel of upper cover with gilt lettering that of lower cover with gilt ornament spine blind-stamped to resemble raised bands panels with gilt ornament gilt turn-ins pale yellow endpapers all edges gilt. With title page vignette frontispiece portrait of Wellington and three full-page engravings of battles. Printed entirely in gilt on "enamel" gloss paper. Front free endpaper with faint pencilled signature. Binding very slightly soiled joints and extremities a little rubbed trivial soiling to front endpapers otherwise quite a fine copy the text entirely clean fresh and bright with sparkling gold.<br/> <br/> This now-scarce luxuriously produced little volume celebrates the life and military achievements of Arthur Wellesley Field Marshall and 1st Duke of Wellington perhaps the most widely admired Briton of the 19th century--and does so in glittering fashion. The key facts of Wellington's life and the decisive battles of his storied career are related here in sparkling gold text and images on alabaster white pages. Poet laureate Tennyson's funerary ode described Wellington 1769-1852 as "the last great Englishman" and his death evoked great mourning in response to his life of public service. DNB notes that his defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo crushing the emperor's ambition for European dominance put him in a class of his own: "No man certainly no Briton had ever been in such a situation before in Europe the object of universal hero-worship and gratitude." Wellington was particularly notable among senior military officers for his determination to lead his troops on the frontline in battle. The three battles depicted in the illustrations here attest to this: in "The Battle of Assaye" we see him on horseback two horses were shot from under him during the conflict wielding his sword as he bears down on enemy cannon. At the "Battle of Vittoria" he is shown leading the infantry to face the enemy with bayonet fixed. And in the decisive "Battle of Waterloo" scene he is once again with the cavalry wheeling to attack the advancing French. The frontispiece shows Wellington astride his famed horse Copenhagen who was his mount at Waterloo. Our volume concludes with a chronology of principal events in the duke's life. It is notable that such a handsome memorial work was produced so quickly after Wellington's sudden death on 14 September 1852: a contemporary ad in Bent's Literary Advertiser notes our title was published on 15 November three days before Wellington's state funeral on the 18th. Copies of this work are rare: we could trace no auction sales and OCLC records only seven copies just one in North America. Simpkin & Marshall unknown

(Grataroli, Guglielmo [ed.]).
Verae alchemiae artisque metallicae, citra aenigmata, doctrina, certusque modus [...]. Basel, (Heinrich Petri & Peter Perna), 1561.
Folio (208 x 307 mm). (16), 244, 299, (1) pp. 18th century full calf with double gilt rules to covers, giltstamped label and date to richly gilt floral spine. Leading edges gilt. Marbled endpapers. All edges gilt. Very rare first edition. "One of the earliest collections of alchemical writers, containing 53 texts [...] A very important item" (Duveen). Among the authors of these treatises highly sought after by 16th century disciples of the hermetic sciences are Geber (Jabir ibn Hayyan), Avicenna, Roger Bacon, Arnaldus de Villanova, Albertus Magnus, Ramon Llull, Johannes de Rupescissa, Richardus Anglicus, Robertus Tauladanus, Giovanni Battista da Monte, Aristotle, Giovanni Braccesco, and Giovanni Aurelio Augurelli, as well as the editor himself. Grataroli (1510-68), a native of Bergamo, studied philosophy and medicine at Padua and lectured on Avicenna from 1537 to 1539. After his conversion to Calvinism he had to flee the Inquisition. He arrived in Basel in 1552, where he practiced and taught medicine and wrote and edited works on medicine and alchemy, of which this is his most famous effort. He also briefly held the chair of medicine at Marburg. - A substantial part of the first section is devoted to the works of the great Arab alchemist Abu Musa Jabir ibn Hayyan, known as Geber in the Latin tradition. Jabir, who was active at the court of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, was inspired to study alchemy by his master Ja'far al-Sadiq, one of the greatest authorities on the esoteric sciences. One of Jabir's most famous works is the "Kitab al-Zuhra" ("Book of Venus", or the Noble Art of Alchemy) written for Harun al-Rashid. His works are commented on by Braccesco, like Grataroli a Lombard, in his "Dialogus ... cui titulus est Lignum vitae", and by the French alchemist Tauladanus in his "In eundem Braceschum Gebri interpretem, animadversio", presented here in their only edition. - The second part contains four texts attributed to Arnaud de Villeneuve, whose "Practica ad quendam Papam" is published here for the first time. This is followed by several apocryphal treatises attributed to Albert the Great, to Raymond Llull, to Avicenna and to Aristotle. Of these, the most notable are the first edition of one of the most important texts of early alchemy, the "De perfecto magisterio" of Pseudo-Aristotle, and the first edition of Johannes de Rupescissa's "Liber lucis", as well as several medieval texts attributed to the monk Ferrarius or Efferarius, most importantly his "Thesaurus philosophiae". - Near-contemporary faded ownership inscription "... ex dono D. D. Flanet R.P." on the title-page, with some 18th century bibliographical notes in more distinct ink. A few minute wormholes in the blank lower margin (some professionally repaired), otherwise an uncommonly fine copy, sumptuously bound in the 18th century, probably in France. VD 16, G 2915.

(Hus, Jan).
Liber egregius de unitate ecclesiae, cuius autor periit in concilio Constantiensi. [Basel, Adam Petri], (August 1520).
4to. (8), 231, (1) pp. With a large figurated woodcut "C" initial by Hans Holbein. 18th century half vellum with ms. spine title. First edition of Hus's principal work, commonly known in English as "Treatise on the Church", ascribed to Adam Petri's Basel printshop on the basis of typographical features. Written in 1413 at the castle of one of Hus's protectors in Kozí Hrádek, near Sezimovo Ústí, the book evidences the author's strong intellectual and spiritual ties with the English reformer John Wyclif, whose like-titled "De ecclesiae" has been written in 1378 (Hus however, unlike Wyclif, did not reject the notion of transsubstantiation). "This treatise became Huss's 'apologia pro sua vita', the defense of the views which he had drawn from Wyclif and advocated. [... It] has a place of first importance among works on the church [...] It is the best known work on the subject issued from Augustine to the Reformation period [and] has had a permanent influence upon the development of the idea of the church" (Schaff, Introduction to the 1915 edition, p. xi-xxxi). - A little more than a century after Hus was burned at the stake in Constance, Luther was sent a manuscript copy of the work and, upon reading it, enthusiastically embraced Hus's central tenets, famously writing to Georg Spalatin in February 1520 that "without knowing it, we are all Hussites". But half a year later, two printed versions appeared almost simultaneously in 1520 - one under the original title used here, the other entitled "De causa Boemica" (printed by Anshelm in Hagenau; the precise order of publication remains unclear). These first printings "enabled others to evaluate (or even emulate) Luther's conclusion [... The text was presented] in a disinterested manner, thus allowing an unbiased judgment of its contents"; it was published without polemical introduction or prologue, and the title page, "which did not mention Hus by name, contained the simple epigraph: 'I beg you, my kind reader, to attend not to who speaks, but to what is said'" (Haberkern). - Occasional slight brownstaining; a few insignificant wormholes to blank lower margin near end; old library shelfmark in ink to front pastedown. Quires M and Q bound out of order (3-4-1-2), but a complete, well-preserved and wide-margined copy. Quite scarce: only three copies in auction records internationally since 1975. VD 16, H 6173.
