SCOTTISH CHIPPENDALE BINDINGS 1794. The Holy Bible containing the Old and New Testaments: Newly Translated out of the Original Tongues; and with the Former Translations Diligently Compared and Revised by His Majesty's Special Command. Appointed to be read in Churches. - WITH: The Psalms of David in Metre. Allowed by the Kirk of Scotland
Edinburgh: Assigns of Alexander Kincaid 1787. Very good. Two works in two volumes. Large Octavo 211 x 130 mm. Collation: BIBLE: A-4A8 complete. PSALMS: A-E8 complete. Contemporary Scottish bindings: red morocco elaborately tooled in gilt to a "Chippendale" motif smooth spines gilt; marbled endpapers a.e.g. in vol. 1 the front joint expertly repaired and tape removed from inner hinges. Preserved in a protective cloth case. INNOVATIVE AND HIGHLY UNUSUAL SCOTTISH CHIPPENDALE ROCOCO BINDINGS COMBINING CHINOISERIE AND NEOCLASSICAL ELEMENTS EXHIBITING THE INDEPENDENCE OF SCOTTISH WORK AT THIS TIME. <br /> <br /> The present example is a striking hybrid of late 18th-century decorative art in Britain the likes of which we have not encountered hitherto. Here "oriental" birds and peacocks are juxtaposed with patriotic depictions of Britannia uncharacteristically surmounted by a fleur-de-lis bold anchors columns sunbursts dripping garlands flowers sheaves of wheat and urns. Presented in the Chippendale style the present binder who is as yet unnamed introduces rococo ornaments while enclosing all of the above with an unmistakably neoclassical greek-key roll. <br /> <br /> EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY ROCOCO BINDINGS OF THIS QUALITY ARE RARE PARTICULARLY THOSE EXECUTED IN SCOTLAND. <br /> <br /> Rococo book arts in Scotland have been almost completely unexplored on account of the paltry number of examples with which we are able to study. Robert Adam's designs for the bindings of his "Ruins of Spalatro" 1764 is a bold statement of the neoclassical for he was justly celebrated. But we now know that Adam was not exclusively "Grecian." David Pullins' heroic archival research in Sir John Soane's Museum has shown that Adam received three previously unexamined commissions for a seemingly antithetical kind of decoration which he calls "neoclassical chinoiserie" specifically Adam's drawings for an unrealized chinoiserie looking-glass dated 1769 for Edwin Lascelles 1st Earl of Harewood. SOURCE: "Robert Adam's Neoclassical Chinoiserie" in: West 86th: A Journal of Decorative Arts Design History and Material Culture online. We would argue that the present bindings exhibit such a blend of Chippendale chinoiserie rococo and neoclassical. For a general note on English "Chippendale" and "Chinoiserie" bindings see G.D. Hobson "English Bindings of J.R. Abbey" p. 126.<br /> <br /> ¶ Our bindings may be linked to four others -- all greatly inferior -- which share the large "eagle" tool in common as noted by Mirjam Foot:<br /> <br /> 1.

Bible, English - 1663
ENGLISH RESTORATION BY "OWEN". Dieu et mon droit. The Holy Bible containing the Old and the New Testament BOUND WITH: The Whole Book of Psalms
London: Ad 1: John Bill and Christopher Barker; Ad 2: Printed for the Company of Stationers 1663. 8vo. Ad 1: Engraved title A-4K8 unpaginated. COMPLETE with OT ending on 3P2v and NT ending on 4K8v. Ad 2: 102 2 pp. A-F8 G4 apparently COMPLETE. Some foxing and blemishes throughout the text. Bound by "Owen" in contemporary full black morocco richly gilt all over with floral and leaf motifs onlaid red and citron morocco pieces to covers and spines a.e.g. fore-ege painted with flowers and "Search the Scriptures" two working silver clasps joints beautifully repaired fore-edge painting dulled and worn from clasps some foxing throughout. Preserved in a protective cloth case. Suitable for exhibition and study. OF SIGNAL IMPORTANCE IN THE HISTORY OF ENGLISH RESTORATION BOOKBINDING: AN UNRECORDED AND UNPUBLISHED BINDING BY "OWEN" WHOSE WORK IS KNOWN FROM ONLY ONE OTHER EXAMPLE. <br /> <br /> In terms of 17th-century English bindings this one in particular is of particular significance: the only other binding by "Owen" is in the Henry Davis Gift British Library. Howard Nixon English Restoration Bookbindings p. 37 and plate 78 describes it in some detail: "It has been stated earlier that signatures on painted fore-edges followed by the word 'fecit' in the seventeenth century are those of binders or booksellers for whom the books were bound. The book in the Henry Davis Gift with the edges signed 'Owen fecit' and dated 1672 is a possible exception to this rule as Owen cannot be traced. The tools used on this book have not however been identified elsewhere." Our binding is far more elaborate the that in the Henry Davis Gift as it features a total of 26 onlays red and citron all elaborately gilt. The Davis Gift example is bound in a single piece of black goatskin. Due to the extensive and complex gold tooling the present binding was not easily attributable to a known workshop but it is now clear that all four major tools on it are identical to those on the "Owen" binding in the Davis Gift see Mirjam Foot Henry Davis Gift vol. II no. 115 with full-page reproduction. While the fore-edge of our binding is worn the word "Search the Scriptures" is just visible alongside depictions of flowers. <br /> <br /> Provenance: inscribed on recto of third blank leaf "John Pounds Carter 1864 bequeathed to him by his aunt Phoebe who died July 14th 1852." This individual was almost certainly the same JPC who was born in Southwark London in 1821 and died in Lambeth London in 1896. Tipped onto the first blank is a small handwritten note which describes this as a "very fine binding by Samuel Mearne." <br /> <br /> References: Ad 1 Bible: Darlow/Moule 539 British and Foreign Bible Society copy lacks the Psalms altogether. Wing STC 2nd ed. B2267. Not in ESTC !. Ad 2 Psalms: ESTC R232588 recording one copy National Library of Wales containing an engraved plate but neither the Yale copy which is likewise bound with Bill and Barker's 1663 Bible nor this copy ever had such a plate bound in. <br /> <br /> We are grateful for the assistance of Philippa Marks British Library and for supplying rubbings of the tools on their Owen binding. Ad 1: John Bill and Christopher Barker; Ad 2: Printed for the Company of Stationers unknown
