Profusely illustrated with 88 large illustrations and 135 illustrative head and tailpieces by Walter Crane. 1712 pages in total he sixteenth century was the golden age of English poetry. Edmund Spenser burned to create an English equivalent to Virgil’s Aeneid. Instead of lauding the Caesars he would glorify Elizabeth the Virgin Queen. Where Virgil connected Rome to the heroic past of Troy Spenser would forge a link between Tudor England and the mythological age of King Arthur. The result was The Faerie Queene a rich allegory which elevated Protestant virtues through the medium of a romantic chivalric epic. Today the power of Spenser’s story and the beauty of his verse still live in ‘famous memory’. London, The Folio Society, 2011 Limited Numbered Edition 114/1000. hardcover

Dent commissioned Beardsley and Fairfax-Muckley to illustrate his deluxe arts and crafts publications in an effort to emulate the success of the Kelmscott Press. An additional limitation of 100 copies on handmade paper was also issued. 2 vols quarto. Woodcut frontispieces and title pages 25 woodcut illustrations 11 bifolia woodcut initials head-and tailpieces ornaments and borders throughout.
