'The first work of Art Nouveau which can be traced' (Pevsner). Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo (1851-1942) was a progressive English architect and designer and pioneer of the Modern Style and global Art Nouveau movement. The German-British art historian Nikolaus Pevsner described the title page of the present work, with foliage twisted into sinuous curves, as 'the first work of art nouveau which can be traced', identifying its main influences as Rossetti and Burne-Jones, and ultimately, through them, William Blake. This copy is from the collection of English architect and designer Charles Robert Ashbee (1863-1942), a prime mover of the Arts and Crafts movement, and is annotated by him throughout.

First Edition. Mackmurdo, A. H. Pressing Questions Profit-Sharing Women's Suffrage Electoral Reform, 1913, examines key political and social debates in Edwardian Britain, with particular attention to the expanding movement for women's enfranchisement prior to legislative reform. Written during the final phase of organized suffrage activism before partial voting rights were granted through the Representation of the People Act 1918, the work addresses the "pressing question" of women's suffrage alongside broader concerns about economic equity and electoral restructuring. The text situates suffrage within a wider framework of political modernization, reflecting contemporary arguments that challenged established assumptions about gender, governance, and representation. It supports research into British feminism, electoral reform, and early twentieth-century political discourse. Mackmurdo, A. H. Pressing Questions Profit-Sharing Women's Suffrage Electoral Reform. London: J. Lane; New York: J. Lane Co., 1913. First edition. Octavo volume measuring approximately 5" x 7.5", 342 pages, in original boards with deckled edges. The text presents a sustained discussion of social and political reforms, emphasizing emerging viewpoints that "run counter to all our previous convictions," with particular focus on the arguments surrounding women's suffrage and its implications for British society. Published five years before women in Britain gained limited voting rights, the volume captures a moment of heightened debate in which suffrage advocates, reformers, and critics contested the future of political participation. By placing women's enfranchisement alongside economic and electoral reform, Mackmurdo's work reflects the interconnected nature of early twentieth-century reform movements and the broader transformation of British political life. Light wear to boards; minimal foxing; interior clean; overall in very good condition.…

FIRST EDITION, LARGE PAPER COPY, tissue-guarded mezzotint frontispiece drawn by the author and engraved by the publisher ('Soul Strivings from Struggle into Calm'), title-page design, head- and tailpiece by the author, attractive undulatory typographic decoration to close paragraph lines throughout leading essay, pp. viii, 133, 4to, original quarter vellum with grey boards, Century Guild device to top corner of upper board printed in black, backstrip lettered in black and slightly dust-darkened, light wear to edges, top edge a little dusty with a few spots, others untrimmed, bookplate of collector George Fleming to front pastedown, beneath which the earlier armorial bookplate of R. Milne-Redhead (see below), very good. An early, considered the first, flourish of Art Nouveau in England - and praised for this innovation by Nikolaus Pevsner as 'not without ancestors, but they are not to be found among the hallowed period styles' (Sources of Modern Architecture and Design, p. 26). These large paper copies with the full version of the title-page design, enclosed within a columned border that is lacking in the regular edition. Arthur Heygate Mackmurdo was an architect, whose Century Guild was founded in 1882 on principles established by the Arts and Crafts movement, and influenced by Morris and Ruskin, 'to render all branches of Art the sphere no longer of the tradesman but of the Artist'. Its tenets also inform Mackmurdo's essay here, which was provoked by the threat of destruction (a bill that had thankfully been removed), where he suggests that the 'monuments must, in fact, be their own guardians and self-advocates [.] they must be cared for and appreciated, solely on account of their own beauty or service'. His 63pp. essay is followed by a section of Notes on the Towers. The earlier bookplate belongs to Richard Milne-Redhead: a barrister and traveller, fellow of the Linnean Society; he collected plants and seeds to build an impressive garden at Holden Clough near Clitheroe.…
