ref. 06505Paris: Viginet 1860. A Jewel of French Decorative Lithography Édouard Lièvre's Vision of the Twelve Months LIÈVRE Édouard Lièvre. Les Douze Mois. Paris: Vignet n.d. ca. 1860s. First edition. Oblong quarto 8 15/16 x 12 1/8 inches; 227 x 308 mm. Title-page printed in gold black and green. With twelve fine hand-colored lithograph plates each accompanied by a protective leaf. Publisher's green pebbled boards front cover elaborately decorated and lettered in gilt. Binding bright gilt crisp with only minor wear at extremities; an unusually well-preserved example in original boards. A beautifully conceived decorative suite representing the twelve months. The twelve hand-colored lithographs are conceived as intimate seasonal vignettes each centered on young children engaged in quiet domestic or outdoor activities appropriate to the month. Rather than formal allegorical figures Lièvre presents scenes of childhood observation and gentle narrative - reading tending resting or playing - imbued with a sense of calm order and refinement. The children are depicted in elegant period costume their gestures natural and unforced often set within carefully rendered interiors or garden settings. Each composition balances figure and environment with subtle attention to furnishings textiles and seasonal detail reflecting Lièvre's background as a designer in the decorative arts. The coloring is delicate and restrained favoring soft tonal washes over bold saturation lending the series a unified atmospheric quality. The result is less overtly didactic than traditional "months" iconography and instead offers a poetic vision of childhood framed by the passage of the year. The elaborate publisher's binding with its gilt decoration echoing the sophistication of the plates within makes this an especially appealing survival in original form.

ref. 06657London: Eyre and Spottiswoode. One of Only Fifty Signed - Cecil Aldin at His Most Characteristic Handsomely Bound by Sangorski & Sutcliffe ALDIN Cecil Aldin illustrator. HARE Kenneth. Roads and Vagabonds. London: Eyre and Spottiswoode 1930. Signed Limited Edition. One of only 50 numbered copies this being no. 42 signed by both Cecil Aldin and Kenneth Hare. Large quarto 10 3/4 x 7 3/4 inches; 273 x 187 mm. viii 189 1 blank pp. Two inserted full-color plates and numerous color-tinted illustrations throughout the text. Handsomely bound ca. 1960 by Sangorski & Sutcliffe in full maroon crushed morocco covers ruled in gilt spine with five raised bands elaborately tooled and lettered in gilt in compartments gilt-ruled board edges and turn-ins marbled endpapers top edge gilt. A fine elegant copy. A particularly charming example of Cecil Aldin's mature work Roads and Vagabonds captures the artist's enduring fascination with the English countryside - its inns lanes sporting life and gently comic rural characters. Aldin's illustrations at once affectionate and keenly observed helped define the visual language of early 20th-century British sporting and travel books. The limitation of just fifty signed copies places this among the scarcest of Aldin's illustrated books seldom encountered on the market and almost always in lesser bindings. The present example is significantly enhanced by its later binding by Sangorski & Sutcliffe the great London firm associated with some of the finest decorative bindings of the modern era here executed in a restrained but luxurious style that complements the work beautifully.
