1890réf. ST20732Paris: H. Launette et Cie 1890. No. 196 of 1000 copies and 100 Large Paper Copies with the etchings in multiple states. 255 x 165 mm. 10 x 6 1/2". 3 p.l. viii 190 pp. 3 leaves.Translated into French by Jacques Amyot. LOVELY DARK BLUE MOROCCO GILT BY CAPTAIN GLADSTONE stamp-signed C. E. G. on front dentelle covers divided into multiple compartments that at center a lobed mandorla all of the compartments densely gilt the inner compartments with swirls of leafy branches on a dotted background the others diapered by diagonal gilt fillets into lozenge-shaped compartments containing a single gilt dot smooth spine covered with leafy branches gilt lettering wide inner dentelles with sprays of leafy branches green silk pastedowns and endleaves top edge gilt imperceptible repair at top of spine. With 12 full-page etchings and 29 in-text illustrations by Champollion after the designs of Raphaël Collin. Ray "French" p. 377. Spine just faintly sunned though difficult to see with all its gilt occasional very minor foxing otherwise a fine copy clean and fresh internally with vast margins in a well-preserved binding bright with gilt. A unique combination of decadence and sweet innocence Longus' charming pastoral novel appears here with a series of engravings that were considered to be some of the most attractive of the period and in an impressive binding that emphasizes its pastoral setting and that has an origin clouded with mystery. Ray says that in a survey conducted in 1895 our "Daphnis et Chloé" with the Collin engravings came in fourth in a poll to determine the 10 most successful modern French illustrated books. Our edition uses the popular translation of Jacques Amyot 1513-93 first printed in 1559 and always recognized for its graceful style. Naval Commander Charles Elsden Gladstone 1855-1919 or "Captain Gladstone" as he is commonly called was an English bookbinder of great technical skill working in the late 19th Century but no one seems to know how or by whom he was trained. We know he had many hobbies including microscopy and optical magic lanterns per family accounts suggesting a curious mind and attention to detail both useful in bookbinding. Although testimony from the period indicates that Gladstone personally bound his books there are no known contemporaneous i.e. 1880-1910 exhibitions or auction records of the sale of any of his bindings and no information exists about his being an apprentice. Since the degree of complexity and beauty of his bindings--clearly in evidence here--is extraordinary one wonders if he did in fact personally bind the books. Yes he could have been a self-taught genius binding for his own pleasure but it is not inconceivable that he commissioned someone like Alfred de Sauty as finisher requiring that his own initials always be placed on the dentelles. Regardless of their origin Captain Gladstone bindings are exquisitely crafted filled with lovely all-over gilt-tooled work and characterized by innovative design features. Whoever produced them they are among the best to be found in England around the turn of the century. H. Launette et Cie unknown

Additional engraved pictorial title by Coypel four engraved headpieces of putti four tailpiece vignettes by Cochin and 33 ENGRAVED PLATES consisting of 28 plates after Philippe d'Orléans by Audran the oft-lacking final plate "Les petits pieds" by the Comte de Caylus and EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED with four engraved headpiece vignettes by Fokke after Eisen mounted on blank leaves. A Large Paper Copy. Cohen-de Ricci 652-53; Ray 2A. Four small very faint water spots to boards one plate somewhat foxed in all other ways A GORGEOUS COPY clean and fresh internally with immense margins and in an unworn binding. This exceptionally desirable copy of Longus' unique combination of decadence and sweet innocence is printed on quarto-sized paper enhanced with engravings from some of the greatest Rococo illustrators and offered in an exquisite binding by a modern Parisian master. The charming pastoral novel appears here in the popular translation of Jacques Amyot 1513-93 first printed in 1559 and always recognized for its graceful style. The illustrations were created in 1714 by Philippe duc d'Orléans and Regent of France 1674-1723 engraved by Benoît Audran and published for the first time in 1718. Although Ray indicates that Philippe's work is clearly an amateur's he says that the plates "do tell the story in their halting way and the background landscapes in some of the larger plates have a naïve appeal." The plates were re-engraved for our 1745 printing and the always elegantly graceful tailpiece vignettes by Charles-Nicholas Cochin were created for this edition. Cochin 1715-90 is generally considered on a par with the three Rococo masters Gravelot Eisen and Moreau. Ray notes that works from his early career like the engravings here "are marked not only by the mastery of outline and firmness of composition which never deserted him but also by acute observation and unpretentious humor." Our volume also contains an extra plate by the Comte de Caylus omitted from some copies for its suggestive nature as it shows the feet of the entwined lovers Mon Dieu! protruding from the privacy of a grotto. Additionally a previous owner added four engravings created for the 1754 Longus by the great Charles Eisen 1720-78 Louis XV's Court painter and drawing master to Madame de Pompadour. Ray describes him as "the master of the small design" with "a marvelous talent for pleasing." The beauty of this copy was further--and gloriously--enhanced ca. 1910 when binder René Kieffer created the striking binding with its bouquets of fantastical flowers in a riot of colors and gold. Kieffer 1875-1963 was in the first class of students to graduate from the École Étienne where he concentrated on becoming a doreur learning to tool gold designs in the well-established style. After leaving school he worked for Chambolle-Duru until 1898 at which time he established his own studio. According to Duncan & De Bartha he "became a disciple of Marius Michel moving gradually away from his traditional training towards a more emblematic and modern style." He would become one of the most innovative and progressive binders in Paris in the 20th century earning a well-deserved reputation for producing widely variable bindings that defied typification. s.n. unknown
1908réf. 508688Deighton Bell and Co 1908. First Edition. Hardcover. GOOD. First Edition Thus Lowe's new critical Greek text with english translation on diglot facing pages. 12mo red cloth gilt spine lettering. xi 1 195pp. B/W frontispiece portrait of the statue of Pan and Daphnis at the Mueso delie Terme in Rome. Tips a bit worn spine a bit toned sound otherwise. Annotated with learned and comments in a fine contemporary hand with extensive notes to the rear blanks. Among other reflections the annotator remarks on p. 160 'The excision of over-erotic passages has led here and there to solecism e.g. the change of 'hon' to 'heyn' in IV11 calls for the omission of 'kai' before 'ouden'.' We suspect the owner's name 'R. A. Clarke' appears to be in another name leaving this first reader unfortunatlely anonymous noting only 'From Class Rev. August 1910 after the final notes. 'Despite its perennial popularity and the admiration of no less an authority than Goethe Daphnis and Chloe was largely ignored by classical scholars being considered trivial and/or pornographic until the 1960s when the ancient novel began to be viewed as a worthwhile object of study.'
