(Smith I, 3) (Hatton & Cleaver 3-88pp) A beautiful Cosway-Style binding. The Cosway-style binding originated in London in the early 20th Century, created by bookseller and Dickens scholar, John Harrison Stonehouse. The style was named after Richard Cosway (1742-1821), the celebrated English miniaturist painter, known for his delicate portrait work. Stonehouse commissioned Sangorski & Sutcliffe to create bindings that incorporated miniature watercolor portraits set into the covers under glass. These miniatures-painted on ivory by artists such as Miss C.B. Currie-were often portraits of the book's author, a key character, or a historical figure related to the text. Each was framed within the leather cover, usually of richly gilt morocco, and accompanied by elaborate tooling and jeweled ornamentation. The style became a hallmark of Edwardian luxury bookbinding. After the deaths of Sangorski (1912) and later Currie, the tradition continued under Sutcliffe and later firms, and "Cosway-style" came to denote any binding featuring such inset miniatures, even when produced elsewhere.
