rif. 16-6178England: Circa 1520-1530 prints reroduced by Hugh Evelyn 1972. 15 color prints each matted and 14 are also shrinkwraped. 16 x 13 inches mat size. 41 x 33cm.Tudor Plants and Trees:Published 1972 by © Hugh Evelyn; They were drawn by an artist unknown between 1520 and 1530.Known as “MS Ashmole 1504” or the Tudor Pattern Book the originals are held in the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford.Printed on high white matt cardstock of 139 gm/sm².Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford.This series of Hugh Evelyn © prints was published in 1972 and comprises some of the images in MS Ashmole 1504 known today as the Tudor Pattern Book which is held in the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford. The images drawn between 1520 and 1530 were finished in gouache and watercolour with pen and ink on vellum. Names of species are written in early English directly above each drawing in large textura narrow angular letters with a strong vertical emphasis in pen and black ink; the initial letter of each species name is written in Lombardic style in pen and red ink. .A similar manuscript a variant twin was purchased for Paul Mellon by his fellow Yale alumnus Laurence Claiborne Witten II at Sotheby’s in June 1961. It had lain at Helmingham Hall near Stowmarket in Suffolk England seat of the Tollemache family for 400 years.Known as the Helmingham Herbal and Bestiary it is today held at the Yale University Centre for British Art in New Haven Connecticut USA founded by Mellon. Both manuscripts may be by the same hand as they have many similarities in form and style. The main difference manuscripts is that the Pattern Book shows 2 species on each page with various paraphernalia in miniature beneath whilst the Helmingham comprises 4 images on each page but without the miniature images beneath. It seems that images from two famous contemporary works have been reproduced in the Pattern Book: “St Eustace” c. 1501 an engraving by Albrecht Dürer 1471-1528 held by the Royal Collection London and “Adam and Eve” 1526 a painting by Lucas Cranach The Elder 1472-1553 held by the Courtauld Institute of Art in London. But no such reproductions appear in the earlier Helmingham manuscript.The images shown in our collection of prints comprise plants ostensibly native to England. Henry Black assistant keeper of Public Records in 1845 considered this was the Book of Patterns of an illuminator of manuscripts. The late W.O. Hassall himself librarian at the Bodleian Western Manuscripts and to the Earl of Leicester at Holkham agreed whilst questioning if it might be a private textbook for a child. He thought the style of the pictures and of the English suggests some influence from the Low Countries.Nicolas Barker a British historian of printing and books and lately head of Conservation at the British library has more recently studied both manuscripts. He speculates that the Yale images are older than the Tudor Pattern Book by about 20 years. He also suggests that both manuscripts may have existed together at Helmingham and were possibly used by Lionel Tollemache as pattern books when he began renovation at the start of the sixteenth century. The house was then called Creke Hall. He surmises that they may have been used as educational primers for the Tollemache children endorsing the opinion of Hassall.Elias Ashmole 1617-92 was an English antiquary politician officer of arms astrologer and student of alchemy. He supported the royalist side during the English Civil War. At the restoration of Charles II he was rewarded with several lucrative offices. Through a carefully planned if unhappy marriage Ashmole came into the wealth he needed to pursue his twin ambitions: the study of alchemy and the acquisition of things. He acquired collections from 1 Simon Forman 1552-1611 an astrologist occultist and herbalist active during the reigns of Elizabeth I and James I who left his collection to his protégé Richard Napier whose son sold it to Ashmole; and 2 William Lilly 1602-1681 an astrologer who supported the Parliamentarians during the Commonwealth. He had also acquired fairly or otherwise the collections of John Tradescants Senior and Junior gardeners to Robert Cecil and Charles I respectively. Their employers had sent their gardeners off around the world to find plants and other ‘curiosities’. Ashmole’s gifted his collection to Oxford University and the Tradescant “curiosities” which had been part of a private museum called “The Ark” in Lambeth London formed the basis to the founding of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford the first public museum in Britain. Ashmole’s manuscripts and those of Anthony Wood 1632-1695 an antiquary at Oxford and Sir William Dugdale another antiquary and a herald who also became Ashmole’s father-in-law were moved to the Bodleian Library in 1860.Provenance: From the collection of Frederic Gale Ruffner Jr. the founder of Gale Research Detroit.

Originally planned as a trip to study the bird life of the island it was soon enlarged to include an exploration of the interior. The original number of participants was 18 under the leadership of F C R Jourdain and was funded by subscription. A return trip occurred in 1922 by three of the original participants. This led to the organization of a second expedition in 1923 under the leadership of F G Binney devoted to exploration and a final expedition under Binney in 1924. Though Spitsbergen was a relatively well known area of the Arctic the interior had scarcely been seen.The goal of the expedition was a study of the "ecology" of the environment - something that was new. The Oxford University Expedition Club made small number of such trips to remote parts of the world prior to WWII issuing similar scientific reports. Oxford Univ.

1938rif. 21010Oxford: Oxford Univ. Exploration Club by the Oxford University Press 1938. First Edition. Original publisher's cloth. Very good; modest wear and chafing to the binding; occasional spotting. Royal 8vo. The text is made-up of 31 original offprints from various journals retaining their original format and pagination. The OUP printed the title preface and frontispiece and then bound up the offprints as the "text". The book bears the OUP press mark of the period on the spine and is bound in a green colored coarse weave linen cloth. The club had been founded in 1927. Its president Col. John Buchan author of The 39 Steps advised the group to undertake a "tropical" expedition to avoid a succession of Northern undertakings the first club outing was to Greenland the previous year. The purpose of the expedition was not to explore unknown territory " . but to penetrate into the canopy of the tropical rain-forest which offered the prospect of discovering a zone of life practically untouched by science. . A preliminary ecological survey was to be attempted and such collections made as were relevant to the work in hand." The result were a series of pioneering reports offered here by the 12 members of the expedition. Given the manner in which the book is made-up it is doubtful if more than 100 copies were produced.
