1813rif. 3644London: B.R. Howlette / John Murray 1813. Second edition. Good. 8vo. 2 130 pp. Printed in Greek throughout on fine paper. Contemporary English red diced russia calf rubbed and worn tooled in blind outer frame of gilt palmette rolls all edges gilt drab endpapers. Front endpaper waterstained; second blank leaf with paper flaw; outer margins of final pages darkened from turn-ins. With faults and priced accordingly. THE ONLY KNOWN ILLUSTRATIONS BY MRS. LAVINIA FORSTER. Our copy bears learned MS annotations in Greek and Latin. Beautifully printed in a Greek font created especially for William Bulmer by William Martin. Dibdin described the 1802 first edition as an "elegant work that confers great credit on the printer." Our copy belongs to the second edition which was printed in the same Greek font and retains the 20 fine engraved head- and tailpiece vignettes designed by Lavinia Banks Forster 1774-1858 wife of the present editor Edward Foster. Two of the vignettes are signed in absolutely miniscule lettering "Publ. by W. Miller Old Bond Street 1802." Mrs. Lavinia Banks Forster was the only child of the sculptor Thomas Banks and his wife Elizabeth. She married the Reverend Edward Forster in 1799 and from 1815 lived in Paris with her husband who was at that time Chaplain to the British Embassy. There they provided a social center for artists. Her lively and fully accomplished illustrations for her husband's Anacreon represent the only published examples by her that we have been able to trace. "Few of Anacreon's works survive but those that do focus on wine love homosexual and heterosexual and the overall pleasures of the legendary Roman symposium. Anacreon used various techniques in his writings including self-deprecation and irony. The collection of miscellaneous Greek poems from the Hellenistic Age and beyond known as the Anacreontea was 'mistakenly labeled' with Anacreon's name" see William and Mary Law Library online exhibit. The annotator of our copy was one George Houstoun on title: "Ex libris Georgii Houstoun." Given the lavishness of the binding and the fact that the book itself was printed on fine paper perhaps this individual was George Houstoun 1743-1815 4th Laird of Johnstone Renfrew Scotland. Subsequently signed in pencil inside the lower cover: "R. Bradford." Dibdin Greek and Latin Classics vol. I pp. 266-267 1802 edition. See DNB under Edward Forster. B.R. Howlette / John Murray unknown

In a makeshift binding of bonded or simulated leather with added plain endpapers. Very good or better internally with a touch of chipping to a few page edges very minor browning to edges heavier with some discoloration to Greek title page. 54 blank 122 blank. With both blanks at D2 and H6 and two more added from a previous binding. Page edges gilt. Adams A1003. Bound with the Latin version first usually found the other way around. The first edition of Anacreon was published by Henri Estienne his first work as a publisher in 1554 in a Latin edition and then a Greek edition likely printed by Morel with which it is usually bound. Like the 1554 edition this is set in Claude Garamond's "grecs du roi" type and thought to be more likely printed by Morel than Henri's father Robert. Little is known of the Anacreon manuscript Henri ran into it around 1551 and translated it into Latin. It's publication caused a sensation of playful Anacreontic imitations in Europe.
