18388vo., Second Edition, with an engraved frontispiece, 64 wood-engraved plates (each containing several figures) and numerous wood-engravings in the text, endpapers and preliminaries lightly spotted; contemporary green half morocco, marbled boards, gilt back, marbled edges, skilfully rebacked, original backstrip gilt with five raised bands laid down, one or two scuffs on boards else a very good, bright, clean copy. Parker's most popular, if not his most profound, work. It includes fresh ideas on Saxon architecture, an article on stained glass by Willement, and (like most of Parker's writings) is charmingly - and accurately - illustrated by Jewitt.
19292 vols., 8vo., First Edition thus, on laid paper, text in English (introduction and notes) and French (the works themselves), with coloured and monochrome frontispieces (original tissue guards present) and 6 monochrome plates; original buckram, gilt backs, gilt tops, uncut, covers very lightly age-marked else a very good, clean copy. EDITION LIMITED TO 1000 COPIES. Chapman's translation is taken from the revised Paris text of 1787. CBEL II, p.528.
19278vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece, 40 sepia-toned plates and 53 illustrations in the text, endpapers very lightly spotted; original blue cloth, upper board blocked and lettered in black, gilt back, backstrip sunned to brown (but all gilt bright and entirely legible), a very good, bright, clean copy. As usual with this publisher, an excellent and well-illustrated general survey. Includes an index of examples by county. Uncommon in this condition.
18958vo., Eleventh Edition, with very numerous fine woodcut illustrations (a number full-page) in the text; original pictorial cloth, upper board and backstrip elaborately blocked and lettered in gilt, bevelled boards, chocolate endpapers, a very good, clean copy. With 8pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end. Arguably the single most important textbook for any student of medieval building., Parker's 'Introduction' is based on a lecture given in 1849 following extensive travel in France. It includes a valuable comparison of French and English Gothic in which the help of Viollet-le-Duc is acknowledged, together with an extended topographical and glossarial indexes. What is not acknowledged is the quality of Jewitt's woodcuts which enhanced every edition.
18192 works in one vol. 8vo., with an engraved frontispiece and 13 engraved plates (first work) and 23 engraved plates (second work), some very light spotting (mainly marginal) on plates; handsomely bound in twentieth century half calf, marbled boards, back ruled, tooled and lettered in gilt, a highly attractive bright, crisp copy, ideal as a gift or for presentation. Since the binding is lettered only for the Rickman it is possible that a previous owner did not realise that TWO important works are present here (the latter, unnamed, work being much the scarcer).Rickman provided the first systematic treatise on Gothic architecture in England. Its influence was profound, for his terminology was employed by virtually all subsequent writers; much of it, indeed, is still current today. First published in 1817 in Liverpool (where the present issue was compiled), one of its most valuable features was its descriptive list of (over 800) extant buildings illustrating the principles of English architecture and helpfully arranged by county. In this updated edition the number of buildings is greatly enlarged. Kendall's VERY SCARCE analysis is based on the ornaments, arches, columns etc., of Exeter Cathedral; the work is intended for practising architects who are taught the main elements which must be followed meticulously to achieve the pure pointed style. Kendall (1766-1829) was Surveyor of Exeter Cathedral and responsible for much restoration after about 1805. His important work was reissued once only, by Bohn in 1842. A FINE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE TWO KEY AND BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED GOTHIC TEXTS IN A SINGLE, HANDSOME BINDING.
18258vo., Third Edition, with an engraved frontispiece and 14 engraved plates, and EXTRA-ILLUSTRATED by the addition of 10 small engraved illustrations of churches and a long relevant cutting mounted on rear endpapers, three separate signatures on blank preliminary, some very light age-staining (mainly marginal) to a few plates; nineteenth century green cloth, gilt back, red sprinkled edges, patterned endpapers, an unusually well-preserved, firm, clean copy. THE FIRST SYSTEMATIC TREATISE ON GOTHIC ARCHITECTURE IN ENGLAND, and by far the most influential - Rickman's nomenclature was adopted by most subsequent writers and continues in use to this day. The work was first published in Liverpool in 1817 instancing 833 examples, with a second, slightly larger version appearing two years later. The present edition lists well over 3000 buildings (mainly churches), the majority inspected personally by Rickman, AND EXTENDS THE SCOPE OF THE WORK TO INCLUDE IRELAND, SCOTLAND AND WALES. This is the penultimate edition published during the author's lifetime and includes new lithographed plates by the author. A most attractive copy. See Eastlake pp.122-126.
19468vo., First English Edition, neat contemporary signature on front free endpaper; original red cloth, gilt back, a very good, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly chafed at head and tail of backstrip (just affecting lettering at tail) and a little browned on (predominantly white) rear panel. The first English edition of the first English translation of the Danish novel 'Gengaeldelsens Veje', written by Karen Blixen (as Pierre Andrezel) during the Nazi occupation of Denmark in 1944. In the English edition the 'author' is provided with a plausible biography (and even a portrait photograph). He 'is described as a young Frenchman, born in Rouen 1915, and educated at Oxford where he wrote stories for English magazines…'. The rear fold-in nevertheless carries an advertisement for the third impression of Karen Blixen's 'Out of Africa'! With striking dustwrapper artwork by Michael Wickham. Very scarce, especially in this condition.
