1797Best.-Nr. ST19344London: Printed by T. Gillet for Longman et al. 1797. 265 x 163 mm. 10 3/8 x 6 3/8". Two volumes. Contemporary green straight-grain morocco covers with double gilt fillet border raised bands gilt titling turn-ins with decorative gilt roll marbled endpapers all edge gilt inexpert older repairs to joints. EACH VOLUME WITH RICHLY DETAILED FORE-EDGE PAINTING that on volume I depicting the old Tabard Inn Southwark and that on volume II showing Furnival's Inn Holborn. Housed in a fleece-lined double-compartment slipcase. Title pages with engraved vignette. Front flyleaf of each volume with ink ownership inscription of Mary Erskine dated 1803 noting it was a wedding gift from her cousin Lord Wodehouse and with later ink presentation inscription to "Walter and Katherine" on their 13th wedding anniversary 17 February 1931 from "their mother Kate Goodrich." Spines faded to brown as usual with green morocco and with half a dozen minor abrasions joints somewhat worn front joint of vol. II with four-inch crack at head but the bindings entirely solid the contents clean and fresh with only insignificant imperfections and the fore-edge paintings very well-preserved. This is a charming pair of large fore-edge paintings depicting two historic London inns each full of detail and painted on text blocks that fan out beautifully with very little effort. The text here is a late 18th century edition of a controversial and short-lived periodical known as "The Guardian" spearheaded by writer and politician Richard Steele who also founded "The Tatler" and "The Spectator". "The Guardian" as DNB relates ran from 12 March to 1 October 1713 and "is chiefly remembered for the quality of the contributors on whom Steele drew including Edward Young George Berkeley Alexander Pope and of course Joseph Addison." The two inns depicted in the fore-edge paintings here also have literary credentials: the Tabard Inn in Southwark was chosen by Chaucer as the starting point for the "Canterbury Tales" and Furnival's Inn in Holborn will be known to Dickens enthusiasts as the place where he began writing "The Pickwick Papers." The original Tabard Inn burned down in the Great Fire but was immediately rebuilt and became a popular stopping point for stagecoaches as depicted in the present painting. The dirt road in front of the inn is dominated by a large covered wagon and team of horses with a pair of men gesturing in the foreground and others idling nearby; Furnival's Inn by contrast was an Inn of the Chancery and enjoyed much tidier surroundings: the streets in the fore-edge painting here are cobbled the ladies and gentlemen are well dressed and even the rubbish has been neatly piled to one side. Both paintings date from the late 19th century and are based on engravings found in "Old and New London" by George Walter Thornbury ca. 1880. Though unsigned they are extremely well done and offer wonderful views of London haunts from both sides of the Thames. Printed by T. Gillet for Longman et al. unknown books

1977Best.-Nr. 85163Dublin Ireland: Dolmen Press 1977. Limited Edition 1/650 copies. Limited edition 1/650 copies. Quarto. Black cloth over boards 10 5/8 in. x 7 1/4 in. with striking painting by Louis le Brocquy of a rook in flight to front board. White lettering to spine. Housed in Black and Red on White dustjacket. 78 pp with red and black lettering to dustjacket spine. It is interesting to note that while creating the images for this book the artist le Brocquy was healing from an injury which encased his primary drawing/painting hand in plaster. He writes: "In my present task I have not had the use of my right hand which is immobilised in plaster. With my available left hand I cannot write nor do any precise operation at all. It is encouraging therefore to note that this clumsy left hand produces illustrations as well as paintings which are not less articulate than those formerly made with my right. It would seem to show that no predictable skill whatever is involved and that images emerge not by imnposition on my part but as it were automatically -- jerked into coherence by a series of vaguely directed accidents discovered rather than executed. In illlustrating THE GODODDIN I discovered nothing but rooks. This would be less disconcerting were I preoccupied with Ted Hughes's CROW. As it is I have had to accept their persistent presence in THE GODODDIN as a kind of counterpoint to its own repetitive and compassionate insistence and in renewed irony as a recurrent image of the unscathed victor" "Aneirin the sixth-century Welsh poet is reputed to have been one of a handful of survivors from the battle of Catraeth which inspired his epic poem THE GODODDIN.Desmond O'Grady's belief is that what Aneirin wrote of his war is true of all wars and informs the purpose of his version which is to give a 'reading' of the poem as one way in which it might have been written today." Louis le Brocquy executed magnificent brush drawings for Thomas Kinsella's version of the Irish epic THE TAIN.has provided a series of ink paintings to accompany Desmond O'Grady's text.
