1970Roy. 8vo., First Edition thus, with title-vignette, numerous reproductions of engraved plates throughout, and pictorial endpapers; black cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in price-clipped dustwrapper. High quality facsimile reissue of a classic of nineteenth century London topography, first published in 1829.
Set of four oval designs, all matted, with captions peeled and re-mounted upon mat. Comprising I: "Le Reveil". 268:205 mm. Oval, pencil, ink and watercolour drawing, signed ("Shepard") lower right, mounted, some worming to mount. - II: "La coiffure". 270:205 mm. Oval, pencil, ink and watercolour drawing, unsigned, mounted. - III: "La Jupe Insoumise". 270:205 mm. Oval, pencil and watercolour drawing, mounted, unsigned. - IV: "La Toilette achevée". 265:203 mm. Oval, pencil and watercolour drawing, unsigned, mounted. Fine set of original full-colour illustrations, picturing a young lady's matutinal awakening (by a maid bringing what is presumably a letter from her lover), morning coiffure, dressing (the lady being tucked into a recalcitrant dress by two maids), and, ultimately, the lady's admiration of her reflection in the mirror, her morning toilet achieved, with a maid in the background signalling to a gentleman that madam will receive him anon. A rare example of risqué drawings by Shepard, best known for shaping the definitive image of "Winnie-the-Pooh", but also a prolific staff-member of "Punch" and illustrator of favourites such as "The Wind in the Willows" and "David Copperfield". - Slight worming to mount (not affecting image). All signed in pencil on the reverse: "E. H. Shepard, Shamley Green, Guildford." Although the drawings are clearly marked for reproduction ("In 3 Colours"; "size 10 1/4 high facsimile"; "vet to Mr Shepard", etc.), it is unclear if they were actually published - the book for which they were intended could not be traced, and their subject matter does not fit easily into the artist's known canon, showing Shepard as a highly accomplished, albeit tamer disciple of Aubrey Beardsley with an inclination toward Rococo rather than Art Nouveau.
305:508 mm, mounted on cardboard. Fine, large horizontal watercolour picturing a noble lady nude in the bathtub under a parted canopy, with ladies-in-waiting staring aghast or trying to shield their mistress from view, while four puttos gracefully fly from the canopy, a gentleman in 18th-century costume, seated on a sopha, faces the scene, and a small orchestra plays at far right. - A rare example of a risqué drawing by Shepard, best known for shaping the definitive image of "Winnie-the-Pooh", but also a prolific staff-member of "Punch" and illustrator of favourites such as "The Wind in the Willows" and "David Copperfield". - Some spotting. Signed in red "Ernest H. Shepard" at lower right. While the drawing is clearly marked for reproduction (size markings; notes "Sketch 3 Colour Double"; "Henry Stone" [i.e., the Banbury-based colour printing and photo-engraving concern], etc.), it is unclear if it was actually published - the book for which it was intended could not be traced, and the subject matter does not fit easily into the artist's known canon, the flamboyant period costumes reminiscent of his work for "Everybody's Pepys", but also showing Shepard as a highly accomplished, albeit tamer disciple of Aubrey Beardsley with an inclination toward Rococo rather than Art Nouveau.
310:245 mm, under oval mat. A seated young lady, handkerchief in hand, smiling and eyes cast down bashfully, wearing a white bonnet and a dark, semi-transparent cloth flung over her cape, her petticoat having slipped to her thighs and revealing her tightly closed legs from the knees downward. - A rare example of a risqué drawing by Shepard, best known for shaping the definitive image of "Winnie-the-Pooh", but also a prolific staff-member of "Punch" and illustrator of favourites such as "The Wind in the Willows" and "David Copperfield". - Slightly warped. No publication of this image could be traced.
