Condizione: Very Good. First edition hard back binding in publisher's original black cloth covered boards, blocked and lettered gilt back. 8vo. 9'' x 6''. Demonised by some but highly respected by others, Osman Digna was a Mahdist leader who remained a thorn in the side of the British in Sudan for almost two decades during the late Victorian period. He was, perhaps, the ablest commander of the Ansar, the Mahdist army, who, despite numerous defeats, refused to give up the jihad against the Anglo-Egyptian authorities. Although largely forgotten in the West today, he is remembered as a hero by many in Sudan. Contains frontispiece, (xxiv), 232 pp with a folding map and a folding pedigree. Foxing to the end papers and closed text block edges, spine slightly sun faded and in Very Good condition, no dust wrapper. Member of the P.B.F.A. NORTH AFRICA [Sudan].…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Small folio. Engraved allegorical title signed 'C. G. Amling' + [6] + 39 pages text + 14 folding engraved plates with 68 illustrations. Typographical ornaments. Contemporary half vellum. Enlarged edition, corrected by the author (first published 1664), of this influential German treatise on late baroque military architecture by the Bavarian engineer Heidemann, a follower of Daniel Speckle (1536-89) of Strassburg, one of the first exponents of modern fortification. Heidemann still considered the use of orillons for the protection of the flanks of bastions as essential, a method largely abandoned by that time under the influence of the Dutch systems of fortification. A re-interpretation of his theories was offered by Sturm in his Architectura Militaris hypoth.-eclectico (1702). The beautiful allegorical title by the Bavarian court engraver Carl Gustav von Amling (1651-1702) incorporates a view of Munich in the background. A very fresh copy of this handsome book printed on good quality paper. Jähns 1343; Jordan 1636.…

Condizione: Very Good. FASCINATING MEDIEVAL BOOK OF HOURS WITH EXTENSIVE ILLUMINATIONS BY THREE DIFFERENT ARTISTS. In Latin and some French, illuminated manuscript on parchment, Southern Netherlands, Mons, c. 1460 (original portion), c. 1480-1490 (updated). Dimensions 167 x 116 mm., 199 folios, lacking one text leaf, written by two different scribes in gothic textualis bookhand in single column on 17 lines; BINDING: seventeenth century brown calf over wooden boards, spine with four raised bands, gold-tooled, gilt title ("OFFICIU / BEATEM / VIRGIN", partly worn out), gilt edges. ILLUSTRATION: 22 full-page miniatures within full rinceaux borders by the Mildmay Master (13), the Master of Philippe de Croÿ (7), and a third Mons illuminator, follower of Simon Marmion (2), and 4 small miniatures by the Mildmay Master, additional sixteen full rinceaux borders, and 5-line initials in pink or blue on burnished gold grounds. The Mildmay Master was responsible for the core of the original manuscript; the artist paints elongated figures with small heads and slender bodies, mostly situated on pale yellow tiled grounds. His outdoor landscapes are cursory. Unusual here are his delicate acanthus and floral borders sprinkled with fanciful grotesques. The artist responsible for updating the manuscript is the Philippe de Croÿ Master. He favors tiled floors in brown or gray and white, with a generally somber, almost grisaille palette, with blue and white, grey, and a burnt brownish orange. A third painter, a follower of Simon Marmion, intervened during this second campaign. The most skilled of the three illuminators, his delicate figures are well-modeled, with tiny hands and individualized faces. PROVENANCE: The manuscript was made in Southern Netherlands probably in two different stages. The core of the Hours and the calendar were written in Mons for an unknown patron, c. 1460. Then, around 1480, the manuscript was updated, also in Mons, for a couple represented in prayer in the manuscript: Jean Antoine de Mahieu, Lord of Bosqueau, and his wife, Jacqueline de Sivry, Lady of Buath; belonged to Jean-Baptiste-Florentin Gabriel de Meyran, marquis de Lagoy (1764-1829); inside front cover: "Jean Fra(n)sois de Lescluse demeurant a Frasne." CONDITION: ink stain in the margin of f. 1, water stains in lower margins of first 32 leaves, colors slightly faded on marginal decoration f. 120v, stain in the marginal decoration f. 77v, other minor signs of use, otherwise in very good condition. Binding condition: leather very rubbed, gold tooling worn, front cover almost detached, hinges of the back cover fragile. Full description and images available. (BOH 217). …

No Binding. Condizione: Fine. This illuminated Antiphonal leaf, depicting Saint Ursula within a large initial D was painted in Bologna around 1290-1300. The artist was a close follower of Jacopino da Reggio, one of the key painters of the late Duecento. Ursula is crowned and noble, with a slender figure and delicate facial features, holding the palm of martyrdom. Her portrayal closely parallels a Gradual leaf in the Fondazione Giorgio Cini (inv. 22018), confirming the attribution to this anonymous Bolognese master. The page, written in Latin, comes from the First Nocturne, first Responsory for the feast of the 11,000 Virgins of Cologne (Deonoto fuit nata placens). Large in scale (485 × 375 mm), with a historiated initial measuring 134 × 128 mm, it was designed for communal liturgical use. The bold red rastrum (32 mm, six four-line staves) frames notation in square script, typical of Bolognese choirbooks of the late 13th century. Saint Ursula was one of the most celebrated female saints of the Middle Ages. Her legend, tied to Cologne, inspired innumerable depictions in manuscripts, frescoes, and panel paintings. In this miniature she embodies both regality and sanctity, reflecting the expressive refinement of Bolognese illumination at the cusp of Gothic and Renaissance styles. The leaf has an esteemed provenance, formerly in the collection of Dr. H.F. Jossi Debrunner of Chur, Switzerland; sold at Sotheby's, London (3 December 2008, lot 10); and subsequently acquired by Dr. Edwin E. Gordon (1927-2015), Madison, Wisconsin, a prominent American collector. Provenance: Dr. H.F. Jossi Debrunner (1922-1986), Chur, Switzerland Sotheby's, London, 3 December 2008, lot 10 Dr. Edwin E.
