WITH A FORE-EDGE PAINTING BY MS. C. B. CURRIE showing "a view of Harper's Ferry W. Virginia." "This is No. 145 of the Books with Fore-edge Paintings by Miss Currie. . . " Painted ca. 1928/9. See: Weber p. 341 #145 was previously unknown. Currie painted a scene of Harper's Ferry on the Life of John Brown See Weber A8 p. 348. SIGNED IN INK AT FOOT OF LIMITATION PAGE BY C. B. CURRIE. / In all about 172 Currie fore-edge painting were painted. Each is numbered in consecutive order with her known active period of painting fore-edges from c.1909/10-1929/33. All Currie fore-edge paintings are rare. / Miss Caroline Billin Curry aka "Miss. C.B. Currie" 1849-1940 was famous for painting both ivory miniatures and on fore-edge paintings exclusively for Sotheran's and strictly on Riviere bindings. Currie is important as being the only known artist to have signed all her work and numbered the pieces. She was highly touted in her lifetime as an artist who was singled-out for her skill and exquisite artistry that she thereby became the first artist so-named by Sotheran prominently in their catalogue series. Indeed she was a close associate and friend of the shop manager Mr. John Harrison Stonehouse and his wife Currie was named in their will. Even despite her prominence Currie's correct full name was a mystery until very recently. See Weber. This particular specimen was 1 previously unknown to myself 2 preserved the most-frequently missing chemise and 3 a clear provenance to this copy is noted the only one so located by myself. / PROVENANCE: Oddly this is the first known Currie fore-edge painting with provenance that is understood to be after the painting of the Harper's Ferry scene. The importance of that is the relationship of the ownership of a book to the date of the painting or otherwise owning a book before a fore-edge painting is applied to the book. In this case the ownership is surely after the work of Currie. Three persons' names are found in the volume: Joseph Sampsell Carr may have lived in Chicago Illinois. Margaret Rich Carr may have been Margaret Lee Smith Rich Carr 1917-1981 buried in Lubbock Lubbock County Texas. R. Joseph Rich may have been associated with Jefferson Medical College Hospital Philadelphia. REFERENCE: Jeff Weber Annotated Dictionary of Fore-edge Painting & Binders 2010.

FORE EDGE PAINTING; RAMAGE binder; RUSKIN John
Sesame and Lilies: Three Lectures
London: George Allen 1900. A Wonderful Inlaid Binding by Ramage<br/>Adorned with a Double-Fore-Edge Painting of St. Paul's Cathedral and The Tower of London<br/><br/>FORE-EDGE PAINTING. RAMAGE binder. RUSKIN John. Sesame and Lillies: Three Lectures. Complete Edition. London: George Allen 1900. <br/><br/>With a superb contemporary 'double' detailed fore-edge painting depicting two fine and colorful views of London Bridge with St. Paul's Cathedral and The Tower of London as viewed from the south side of the River Thames. <br/><br/>Small octavo 7 1/8 x 4 3/4 inches; 181 x121 mm. xxxvi ii blank 1-228 pp. Pages 60-64 partially or wholly printed in red.<br/><br/>Bound ca 1900 by Ramage stamp-signed in gilt on lower front turn-in. Full dark green crushed levant morocco covers elaborately tooled with gilt lilies and inlaid red morocco hearts. Spine with five raised bands similarly decorated with gilt lilies and inlaid red morocco hearts lettered in gilt in compartments. Gilt-ruled board edges elaborate gilt turn-ins cream watered silk liners and end-leaves all edges gilt. Housed in a custom made felt-lined red morocco edged red cloth slipcase. The joints have been expertly and almost invisibly strengthened - still a wonderful example of an inlaid Ramage binding with a double-fore-edge painting.<br/><br/>The fore-edge paintings were most probably executed sometime between 1940 and 1960.<br/><br/>Born in London in 1836 John Ramage served an apprenticeship with John Wright then went to Paris where he was able to work with the distinguished Marcellin Lortic 1822-1892 who opened his shop on the Rue St. Honoré in 1840. In 1860 Ramage purchased the binding business of Alexander Banks Jr. in Edinburgh then returned three years later to London where he was in business at various locations into the 20th century. Though the range designs is broad Ramage bindings are celebrated for their remarkably delicate careful and elaborate gilt work.<br/><br/>John Ruskin 1819-1900 was known for his in-depth analysis of art his championing of J.M.W. Turner and multi-volume works on the subject. More than simply critiquing art Ruskin was keen to take on social issues as well particularly around the topic of domestic life and traditional gender roles. Sesame and Lilies first published in 1865 contains three such lectures: Of King's Treasures Of Queen's Gardens and The Mystery of Life and its Arts. It would become notorious in the late 20th century as a stock example of Victorian male chauvinism. In fact Ruskin was using the conventional construction of the feminine as pacific altruistic and uncompetitive to articulate yet another symbolic assertion of his anticapitalist social model.

The time of Action includes Six Days and the transactions of each day occupy a Canto."<br/><br/>These two volumes were sold in 1965 by Dawson's Book Shop in Los Angeles Catalog 355 item 113.<br/><br/>Craigmillar Castle is a ruined medieval castle in Edinburgh Scotland. It is three miles 4.8Â km south-east of the city center on a low hill to the south of the modern suburb of Craigmillar. The Preston family of Craigmillar the local feudal barons began building the castle in the late 14th century and building works continued through the 15th and 16th centuries. In 1660 the castle was sold to Sir John Gilmour Lord President of the Court of Session who made further alterations. The Gilmours left Craigmillar in the 18th century and the castle fell into ruin. It is now in the care of Historic Environment Scotland as a scheduled monument. Craigmillar Castle is best known for its association with Mary Queen of Scots. Following an illness after the birth of her son the future James VI Mary arrived at Craigmillar on 20 November 1566 to convalesce. Before she left on 7 December 1566 a pact known as the "Craigmillar Bond" was made with or without her knowledge to dispose of her husband Henry Stuart Lord Darnley. Craigmillar is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in Scotland. The central tower house or keep is surrounded by a 15th-century courtyard wall with "particularly fine" defensive features. Within this are additional ranges and the whole is enclosed by an outer courtyard wall containing a chapel and a doocot<br/><br/>Loch Leven Castle is a ruined castle on an island in Loch Leven in the Perth and Kinross local authority area of Scotland. Possibly built around 1300 the castle was the location of military action during the Wars of Scottish Independence 1296-1357. In the latter part of the 14th century the castle was granted by his uncle to William Douglas 1st Earl of Douglas and remained in the Douglases' hands for the next 300 years. Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned here in 1567-68 and forced to abdicate as queen before escaping with the help of her gaoler's family. In 1588 the Queen's gaoler inherited the title Earl of Morton and moved away from the castle. It was bought in 1675 by Sir William Bruce who used the castle as a focal point in his garden; it was never again used as a residence. Edinburgh: Printed for Arch.

Front flyleaf of volume one with "Cowley" and "Chertsey Bridge"; volume two with "Pope" and "Pope's Villa Twickenham" both in the hand of Helen Haywood. <br /> <br /> Helen R. Haywood 1908-1995 was an English writer and illustrator of children's books. She was born in England in 1908 but was taken as a child to Chile where her father an engineer worked on the trans-Andean railway. She remained in Chile until she was approximately 15 years old. Her experiences were recounted in an unpublished novel"Childhood in Chile." Miss Haywood was a keen student of science and an amateur naturalist and anthropologist. Many of the books she illustrated for the publisher Hutchinson & Co. London were keenly observed and scrupulously accurate depictions of plants birds and animals. When commissioned to do illustrations for a children's book on dinosaurs her research into the skin colors she subsequently chose for her dinosaur illustrations was cited by the Royal Academy of Sciences. Haywood was also a practitioner of the art of fore-edge painting. She became acquainted with the art form through an uncle who was associated with the Bayntun-Riviere Bindery of Bath. She did several fore-edge and double fore-edge paintings on commission every year from the 1930s to the 1970s for Inman's Books an antiquarian book dealer in New York City. She died in Bournemouth England in 1995.<br /> <br /> Abraham Cowley 1618-1667 was an English poet born in the City of London late in 1618. He was one of the leading English poets of the 17th century with 14 printings of his Works published between 1668 and 1721. Around 1663 Cowley obtained permission to retire into the country; and through his friend Lord St Albans he obtained a property near Chertsey where devoting himself to botany and books he lived in comparative solitude until his death.<br /> <br /> Alexander Pope 1688-1744 was a poet and satirist of the Augustan period and one of its greatest artistic exponents. Considered the foremost English poet of the early 18th century and a master of the heroic couplet he is best known for satirical and discursive poetry including The Rape of the Lock The Dunciad and An Essay on Criticism and for his translation of Homer. In 1719 he moved to Pope's Villa in Twickenham then a village west of London in Middlesex where he created gardens and an underground grotto. The house and grotto were topics of 18th- and 19th-century poetry and art. London: Printed for F.C. and J. Rivington; W. Nicol and Son…, 1821 unknown

Royal associations and vanishing paintings Early edition prettily bound by Queen Charlotte's bookbinder and with a modern double fore-edge painting by Martin Frost MBE who was listed in the 2019 New Years Honours for maintaining the "critically endangered" art.

Like his father Brande was the appointed "Apothecary to the Person" in George III's royal household tasked with dispensing medicines for George III and Queen Charlotte and tending to their health. Brande left the position on the king's death but was later reappointed by William IV. Brande's bookplate is on the front pastedown.

The time of Action includes Six Days and the transactions of each day occupy a Canto."<br /> <br /> These two volumes were sold in 1965 by Dawson's Book Shop in Los Angeles Catalog 355 item 113.<br /> <br /> Craigmillar Castle is a ruined medieval castle in Edinburgh Scotland. It is three miles 4.8 km south-east of the city center on a low hill to the south of the modern suburb of Craigmillar. The Preston family of Craigmillar the local feudal barons began building the castle in the late 14th century and building works continued through the 15th and 16th centuries. In 1660 the castle was sold to Sir John Gilmour Lord President of the Court of Session who made further alterations. The Gilmours left Craigmillar in the 18th century and the castle fell into ruin. It is now in the care of Historic Environment Scotland as a scheduled monument. Craigmillar Castle is best known for its association with Mary Queen of Scots. Following an illness after the birth of her son the future James VI Mary arrived at Craigmillar on 20 November 1566 to convalesce. Before she left on 7 December 1566 a pact known as the "Craigmillar Bond" was made with or without her knowledge to dispose of her husband Henry Stuart Lord Darnley. Craigmillar is one of the best-preserved medieval castles in Scotland. The central tower house or keep is surrounded by a 15th-century courtyard wall with "particularly fine" defensive features. Within this are additional ranges and the whole is enclosed by an outer courtyard wall containing a chapel and a doocot<br /> <br /> Loch Leven Castle is a ruined castle on an island in Loch Leven in the Perth and Kinross local authority area of Scotland. Possibly built around 1300 the castle was the location of military action during the Wars of Scottish Independence 1296–1357. In the latter part of the 14th century the castle was granted by his uncle to William Douglas 1st Earl of Douglas and remained in the Douglases' hands for the next 300 years. Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned here in 1567–68 and forced to abdicate as queen before escaping with the help of her gaoler's family. In 1588 the Queen's gaoler inherited the title Earl of Morton and moved away from the castle. It was bought in 1675 by Sir William Bruce who used the castle as a focal point in his garden; it was never again used as a residence. Edinburgh: Printed for Arch. Constable and Co., 1822 unknown
