Armorial bookplate of Gwen and Henry Melchett to each volume endpaper. **THE ART-- The largest contingent of engraved plates (17) are after works by J.M.W. TURNER, R.A. (1775-1851). British marine artist and former sailor CLARKSON FREDERICK STANFIELD, RA, RBA (1793-1867) has seven scenes. William Cattermole, W. Purder, J.D. Harding, William Westall and G. Cattermole provide the remaining numbers, totaling 30 scenes and two engraved facsimile MS. The scenes were engraved by London's WILLIAM (1787-1852) and EDWARD FINDEN (1791-1857). From Cadiz to Constantinople, Newstead Abbey, the Bernese Alps, Seville, along the Rhine, to Venice, Rome, and Greece, the illustrations trace the travels of the itinerant author in his years of "voluntary exile" from Britain, said, by biographer R.Holmes, to escape "gambling debts, a broken marriage and tempestuous scandals." **Published between 1832-33, this collection contains the six volumes of an amended biography by fellow Irish poet and novelist, Thomas Moore, first brought out in 1830. Included are some of Byron's correspondence with his publisher, and biographer, as well as speeches and other materials. The series was originally planned at fourteen volumes, later growing to seventeen, as explained in the advertisement to Vol. VIII. The many Notes, Letters, Prefaces and Dedications reflect Byron's contemporary popularity, some detractors as well-- amongst those who knew and worked with him, including his publisher John Murray, Sir Walter Scott, John Wilson.with some being both detractors and admirers. Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Mary Godwin and Percy B. Shelley are all noted, as is the Countess Guiccioli, and diarists Pietro Gamba and Col. Leicester Stanhope. **PROVENANCE: Bookplate of (Lord and Lady) "Henry and Gwen Melchett," with their armorial bookplate to each volume. Gwen Wilson Mond, Lady Melchette (1899-1982) married Henry Mond, 2nd Baron Melchett in 1920. She was a South African-born art student who met her future husband while studying at the Slade School of Art. Both the Melchetts were patrons of the arts, with their Mulberry House, Westminster drawing room featuring a modernist mural "The Loves of Jupiter" by the painter Glyn Philpot. Bohemian artistic friends also included Augustus John, Gilbert Cannan and others of the Bloomsbury artists and writers of the time. R. Holmes, Coleridge: Darker Reflections 1804-1834 (1998).

Hard Cover. Condizione: Good. With his letters and journals, and his life, by Thomas Moore, Esq. In fourteen volumes. Vol. I [- Vol. XVII]. John Murray. London. 1832-33. 17 Volumes de 18x11,5 cm. Com xv, 359, [i]; [viii], 341, [i]; [viii], 376; [viii], 359, [i]; [viii], 376; [viii], 416; xv, 319, [i]; x, [ii], 328; vi, [i], 360; xix, 316; viii, 326; vi, [ii], 324; vi, [ii], 369, [i]; [viii], 360; vi, [ii], 334; vi, [ii], 335, [i]; viii, [ii], 304 págs. Encadernações editoriais originais da primeira tiragem em tela verde com efeito «moiré» e gravações a ouro na lombada. Guardas decorativas com padrões geométricos coloridos. Ilustrado com 34 gravuras calcográficas sobre aço, executadas por William e Edward Finden a partir de desenhos de J. M. W. Turner, Clarkson Stanfield, J. D. Harding, W. Westall e George Cattermole, entre outros. Cada volume apresenta duas gravuras em anterrosto, protegidos por folha de papel vegetal solta. As gravuras representam paisagens e localidades associadas à vida e obra de Byron, constituindo um testemunho iconográfico de elevado valor artístico, que durante gerações fixou a imagem visual do universo byroniano. Exemplar com defeitos apenas nos dois primeiros volumes. Primeiro volume com primeiro caderno desconjuntado e algumas folhas quase soltas; lombada e pasta anterior descoladas do miolo; frontispício com foxing. Segundo volume com miolo completamente solto, primeiro e últimos cadernos fragilizados com algumas folhas em vias de se soltar. Rara primeira edição colectiva completa das obras de Byron, publicada por John Murray entre Janeiro de 1832 e Junho de 1833. Conjuntos que preservem as encadernações originais nas presentes condições são extremamente raros e valiosos, tendo a grande maioria sido posteriormente reencadernado. Estas encadernações conferem ao exemplar um interesse bibliográfico assinalável por testemunharem um marco na história do livro impresso: esta foi a primeira série literária a utilizar gravação a ouro directamente sobre tecido em escala comercial, importante inovação técnica que se tornaria a norma na época vitoriana. Primeiras páginas de cada volume com índice de conteúdos. Alguns volumes incluem pequeno aviso explicativo contextualizando as obras do respectivo volume. Originalmente anunciada em catorze volumes ? menção que se mantém nas folhas de rosto dos primeiros doze ?, a colecção foi expandida para dezassete durante a publicação, a fim de acomodar notas adicionais e incluir integralmente o poema satírico «Don Juan». Esta edição, destinada a um público de classe média através do formato oitavo acessível, teve grande sucesso comercial e dominou os estudos byronianos durante mais de meio século, não sendo substituída até à edição crítica de Prothero e Coleridge (1898?1901). Os seis primeiros volumes reproduzem a biografia e correspondência de Byron preparadas por Thomas Moore, inicialmente publicadas em formato quarto de luxo em 1830?1831; os restantes onze volumes contêm a obra poética completa, desde «Hours of Idleness» e «Childe Harold's Pilgrimage» até aos dramas e ao «Don Juan». O presente exemplar conserva as encadernações editoriais originais em tela verde com efeito de seda ondulada, tal como foram emitidas pela editora John Murray. O primeiro volume, notavelmente, preserva ainda a etiqueta de papel verde na lombada impressa a ouro com o título e uma coroa ? característica das primeiríssimas tiragens, anterior à inovação técnica que permitiu gravar directamente sobre a tela. Entre a publicação do primeiro e do segundo volume, o encadernador londrino Archibald Leighton (1784?1841) aperfeiçoou o processo de preparação do tecido, permitindo que os restantes dezasseis volumes recebessem a gravação a ouro directamente sobre a tela. A colaboração dos irmãos Finden nas gravuras ? que trabalhavam simultaneamente nas «Landscape Illustrations» publicadas em fascículos mensais como complemento a esta edição ? contribuiu decisivamente para estabelecer a iconografia romântica das paisagens mediterrânicas e orientais que Byron celebrizara na sua poesia. George Gordon Byron, 6.º Barão Byron (Londres, 1788 ? Missolonghi, 1824), foi poeta e figura central do Romantismo inglês. Celebrizou-se com «Childe Harold's Pilgrimage» (1812?1818) e com os contos orientais em verso «The Giaour» (1813), «The Corsair» (1814) e «Lara» (1814). A sua obra-prima satírica «Don Juan» (1819?1824), deixada incompleta, é considerada uma das maiores realizações da poesia inglesa. Exilado de Inglaterra em 1816 na sequência do escândalo do seu divórcio e de rumores de relações incestuosas com a meia-irmã, viveu em Itália até 1823, ano em que partiu para a Grécia para apoiar a guerra de independência contra o Império Otomano, vindo a falecer de febre em Missolonghi. Thomas Moore (Dublin, 1779 ? Sloperton, 1852) foi poeta irlandês e biógrafo, célebre pelas «Irish Melodies» (1808?1834) e pelo romance oriental «Lalla Rookh» (1817). Amigo íntimo de Byron durante cerca de vinte anos ? a quem este dedicou «The Corsair» ?, foi encarregado da redacção da biografia autorizada após a destruição controversa das memórias manuscritas do poeta em 1824. A sua «Letters and Journals of Lord Byron, with Notices of his Life» (1830) foi aclamada pela crítica como uma das melhores biografias em língua inglesa. Obs.: Esta obra pesa mais de 5kg.
