BACON FRANCIS; SYLVESTER DAVID
Interviews with Francis Bacon
London: Thames and Hudson 1975. First edition. Original stiff paper covers. Very Good. FIRST EDITION OF BACON'S MOST REVEALING BOOK AN ASSOCIATION COPY INSCRIBED BY BACON ON HALF-TITLE: "For Erica Spender / with all my best wishes / Francis Bacon". Interviews with Francis Bacon is the most important source we have for understanding Bacon's art and philosophy. Through Bacon's responses to the influential art critic and Bacon scholar David Sylvester's provocative questions we gain invaluable insight into the one of the greatest artistic minds of the twentieth century.<br /> <br /> An important association copy:<br /> <br /> This copy was given by Bacon to Erica Erika Haarman Spender. Erica Spender was the widow of Michael Spender 1906-1945 and sister-in-law of the poet Stephen Spender. Stephen Spender was a prominent figure in Francis Bacon's circle and Erica Spender was first introduced to Francis Bacon by him.<br /> <br /> Erica Spender later joined Marlborough Fine Art in London to run its the Antiquarian Book Department. At that time Francis Bacon was represented by Marlborough Fine Art and it was during this period that Erica Spender became Bacon's friend sharing a commonality of cultural artistic and philosophical interests. Bacon was represented by Marlborough Fine Art from 1958 until his death in 1992. The relationship was greatly beneficial to Bacon as Marlborough worked closely with the artist to successfully enhance his international reputation.<br /> <br /> Complete with 94 black-and-white illustrations. London: Thames and Hudson 1975. Quarto 8x11 in; 20.5x27.5 cm original pictorial stiff covers. A few tiny creases to cover a hint of toning to rear panel as often; generally a fine copy. RARE SIGNED.

Gould Bacon F.
Sketchbook of English and Scottish Scenery
Two heavy card attached by two metal rings. Very Good. Lovely sketchbook of English and Scottish scenery done by a gifted amateur. N.d. circa 1930. Oblong 18 by 26 cm. Unpaginated 13 leaves with 16 pages of illustrations -- most are on rectos. One of the watercolors is mounted. The balance of the artwork done directly into the album. Seven watercolors and nine pencil or charcoal drawings. Depicted are picturesque bridges streams coastal scenery hillscapes and cliffs castles Ludlow Castle farmhouses manor houses and cottages villages railroad tracks stiles and fences. Impressive is the fusion of the impressionistic with an attention to detail. Three of the drawings are less finished in our view with only one being more or less dashed off quick studies and this one being the only page of drawings not of landscapes. Condition: Light soiling of the cover. One leaf detached. <br /><br /> books

Of the Advancement and Proficience of Learning or the Partitions of Sciences IX Bookes Written in Latin by the Most Eminent Illustrious & Famous Lord Francis Bacon.Interpreted by Gilbert Wats. Oxford: Printed by Leon: Lichfield Printer to the University for Rob: Young & Ed. Forrest 1640. <br/><br/>First edition second issue with the colophon dated 1640 and with the penultimate line of the dedication on ¶2 verso without the quotation "his spacious spirit not thus bounded." the recto of C3 reading at foot "Fama Baconi" and with "Marginal Corrections" on the recto of Qqq2 occupying eight lines re-set in larger type but without any addition to text. <br/><br/>Folio 11 3/16 x 7 inches; 284 x 178 mm. 34 60 14 352 351-477 1 blank 20 pp. Engraved frontispiece portrait and engraved title by William Marshall.

Armorial bookplate maybe of Edward Bligh Lord Clifton on front pastedown. Early ink signature "R. Wingate" on verso of engraved portrait. Old booksellers' printed description on rear pastedown Frank Hammond 1952 £15. A quite spectacular and totally untouched example of this great work.<br/><br/>"Bacon conceived a massive plan for the reorganization of scientific method and gave purposeful thought to the relation of science to public and social life. His pronouncement ‘I have taken all knowledge to by my province' is the motto of his work.His ambitious proposal was: ‘a total reconstruction of sciences arts and all human knowledge.to extend the power and dominion of the human race.over the universe'. The plan for this was to be set out in six parts" Printing and the Mind of Man 119 describing the 1620 Instauratio Magna or Novum Organum. <br/><br/>Of the Advancement and Proficience of Learning is the first complete English edition of the first part of Bacon's plan "a complete survey of human knowledge and learning which was expounded in the De Augmentis Scientiarum 1623 a greatly extended version of The Advancement of Learning 1605" Printing and the Mind of Man. <br/><br/>Francis Bacon 1561-1626 1st Viscount St Alban Kt PC QC also known as Lord Verulam was an English philosopher statesman scientist orator and writer who is considered one of the fathers of modern science. The scientific classification bacon sets forth in this work changed the way we look at the world serving as a basis for Denis Diderot's renowned eighteenth-century encyclopedia of the sciences arts and crafts. His written works continue to be extremely influential especially regarding the philosophy and practice of the scientific method. Of the translator Gilbert Watts Wood says that he had so smooth a pen in Latin or English that no man of his time exceeded him" D.N.B.<br/><br/>Gilbert Watts d. 1657 "translated Bacon's ‘De Augmentis Scientiarum' and his rendering called ‘Of the Advancement and Proficience of Learning of the Partitions of Sciences'. was of highly praised on its appearance" D.N.B. <br/><br/>Perhaps belonging to Edward Bligh Lord Clifton. Born in 1795 he attended Eton College and Christ Church Oxford and served as MP for Canterbury from 1818 until 1830. He was styled as Lord Clifton until 1831 when he succeeded his father as 5th Earl of Darnley. He was Lord Lieutenant of Co. Meath from 1831 until his death in 1835. The Darnley family seat of Cobham Hall in Kent was sold in 1955.<br/><br/>Gibson 141b; Honeyman 185 first issue; Madan I p. 217; STC 1167.3.
