2005180 pages. Index. References. Biographical overview. List of works. Colour illustrated endpapers. "E.J. Hughes is famous for his unforgettably rich and accomplished landscapes, primarily depicting the British Columbia coast. His works now command the highest auction prices ever paid for a living Canadian artist, confirmation of his emergence as a major figure on the international art scene... The passionate collector has always been central to the emergence of important artists. In this extraordinarily personal account, the world of a collector comes alive. Here are 76 Hughes sketches, paintings and prints, in colour and black and white - only a handful previously published in book form - accompanied by a text rich with anecdotes about the joys, frustrations and satisfactions of the chase. This is a very human story of art as master - one which sheds important new light on Hughes and his work." - from dust jacket. "Hughes is the chronicler of a landscape almost too beautiful and too alive with spirit to be believed." - Globe and Mail. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Appears unread. Faintly visible tape repair to back panel of dust jacket which is now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart cover. An excellent copy. Book

1860RARE unique collection of 71 copper engravings by renowned Scottish artist William Home Lizars (W.H.Lizars), who was made famous through the painting-like quality of his engravings. His works are well known to book collectors, as he provided a great deal of Sir Walter Scott's books with illustrations and vignettes. Most of the engravings in this volume depict Scottish landscape and landmarks. Additionally, the volume contains views of London, Dublin and Edinburgh, several portraits, genre paintings and illustrations to Tobias Smollett's "The Adventures of Roderick Random". Each page contains a single engraving, and is followed by a sheet of protective wax-paper. There is no title page, meaning this volume was not mass-printed, and is very likely a unique creation. 210x140mm. Unpaginated. Marbled board Hardcover. Gilt page edges. Cover and spine slightly worn. Cover edges and corners bumped and worn. Pen inscription on second white page. Some of the protective sheets damaged (either creased or have minor tears). The pages containing the engravings are undamaged save for natural aging (yellowing pages and a few faint age-stains). [SUMMARY]: This unique volume of much prized works of art is otherwise in very good condition.

New York. 1st edition. Royal octavo in full green grained morocco leather binding with elaborate wide decorative borders impressed in black to the board edges and decorative titles in gilt to cover.

Title page in black and red with a chromolithograph color main title; marbled endpages. Lavishly Illustrated from dense and fine steel plate engravings mostly by the highly regarded John Sartain after art and photos by various artists. The quality of the engraved and tissue guarded plates is quite exceptional. The timing of the book's publication with an elaborate and costly production focused on the Royalty of Europe while America was being consumed by the schism and violence of the Civil War is quite striking. Leather at spine a little darkened and dulled; mild shelf rubbing to the morocco leather at the bottom front corners and tail end of the spine. A solid and handsome copy of this weirdly beutiful and untimely tome glorifying the royal figures of the Continent. VG . Oversize book may require additional charges for expedited or international shipping. . Charles Scribner hardcover
