Aggiungi al carrelloFIRST EDITION. 4to. (28 x 19 cm). Title; Preface, 3 leaves; List of Plates, 1 leaf; pp. 1-136. Later half chocolate-brown morocco over marbled boards, spine with raised bands and gilt in compartments, complementary gilt-lettered red and green morocco labels, renewed endpapers, edges uncut. Engraved map frontispiece "Plan of the…Road of the Simplon" and 36 aquatinted plates with original hand-colouring all bearing Ackermann's imprint dated 1820 except for the "Bridge of Crevola".* Minor offsetting from the plates, generally and excellent copy. Frederic Schoberl (1775-1853) was an English journalist, writer, illustrator, translator, editor, who was long associated with Ackermann's Repository of Arts, one of the foremost Regency periodicals. The Picturesque Tour comprises a "connected tour from Geneva through the Valais, over the new road constructed by command of the late ruler of France across the Simplon, to Lake Maggiore, and by the Lake of Como to Milan". Schoberl writes in the preface that "[I]t would be difficult, perhaps impossible, to select another tract of equal extent, in which [one] would find such diversity of scenery, embracing all that is wild, awful and sublime in the polar regions of everlasting ice and snow; all that is beautiful, picturesque and magnificent in the mountains, forests and waters of more temperate regions; and all that is soft, sweet and enchanting in the warmer skies, the kindlier breezes and the more luxuriant nature of southern Europe". The Simplon Pass had become the dominant route through the Alps after Napoleon had a road constructed in 1801-1805 to facilitate the movement of artillery through the mountains, thereby laying the route by which English tourists would later travel to Italy. The literary significance of the region in this period is significant; it is on the banks of Lake Geneva in 1816, for instance, that Lord Byron (quoted on p. 21), Mary Shelley, and Percy Bysshe Shelley had their infamous competition to write the best ghost story, from which the idea for Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was born. The illustrators, Gabriel and Mathias Gabriel Lory, were prominent Swiss landscape painters, whose talents, Schoberl assures the reader, "will be a sufficient pledge for the accuracy and fidelity of the views contained in this volume" (Preface). Views include Geneva, Sion, Brieg, Simplon, Algaby, Lake Maggiore, Gondo, Isola Bella, Crevola, Sesto, Lake Como, and Milan. *According to Tooley, "[C]are should be taken to see that all the plates are dated 1820 as the book was issued later.with the title still dated 1820 but the plates of later dates, and the impressions of these later issues are considerably inferior to the originals" (Tooley, 359). However we have located another copy at York University in which the same plate is also lacking a date. (Tooley, 446).

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very good. First. First edition in book form. London: Published by R. Ackermann, 1820. Quarto (10 7/8" x 7 5/8", 276mm x 196mm). [Full collation available.] With an engraved map (H. Frost) and 36 hand-colored aquatint plates (dated 1820; watermarks 1819-1820). Eight-page publisher's catalogue (251mm x 147m…m) bound in at rear. Bound in the publisher's blue drab boards, backed with red roan (rebacked). On the spine, five panels separated by double gilt fillets. Gilt round fleuron in the panels. Title gilt to the second panel. Rebacked. Boards bumped, with some wear at the edges. Closed tears to the upper and lower edges of the rear board. Mild, even tanning to the text-block. Some offsetting from the plates. Initial engraved map foxed. Engraved armorial bookplate of Godfrey Wright, A.M. (by W. West) on the front paste-down. Frederic(k) S(c)hoberl (1775-1853) was long associated with Ackermann's Repository of Arts, one of the foremost Regency periodicals (and in which, from 1818-1820, the Tour first appeared). There was little Schoberl did not do; he wrote and edited, translated and illustrated. In the present work (the first edition, Voyage Pittoresque, Paris: 1811, features the illustrations of the Lorys but not Schoberl's text) he contributes to the growing aesthetic category of the Picturesque, which stands in distinction to the Sublime. The Alps join these two categories. The Simplon Pass had become the dominant route through the Alps after Napoleon had a road constructed 1801-1805 to facilitate the movement of artillery. English tourists in particular would travel to Italy "via post," using stage-coaches. The journey took them through Sion and Brigg, Lake Maggiore (with its stunning Isola Bella), Lake Como and finally Milan. The literary import of the region in this period is unparalleled: it is on the banks of Lake Geneva (the start of the journey) that Lord Byron (whom Schoberl quotes, e.g., p. 21), Mary and Percy Bysshe Shelley gathered in 1815; this summit (well, valley) brought forth Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. The illustrators, Gabriel and Mathias Gabriel Lory (also known as Gabriel the Elder and Younger; how this became "J. and J." is unclear), were prominent Swiss landscape painters. Father and son traveled to Neuchâtel to produce their views of the newly-opened Simplon route. The dating of the plates by their imprints and watermarks is crucial, since, as Tooley notes, "the impressions of these later issues are considerably inferior to the originals." Godfrey Wright (ca. 1781-ca. 1862) was admitted as a pensioner to Trinity College, Cambridge (B.A. 1804, M.A. 1807). He lived at Bilham House in Hooton Pagnell, South Yorkshire in his latter years, describing himself in the census as a "clergyman without cure of souls." Tooley 446.

Includes useful publisher's eight page catalog. One of the most beautiful of plate books, capturing some dramatic and treacherous scenery. Views include Sion, Lake Ge…neva, Brieg, Bridge at Ganther, Algaby, Ponte Alto, waterfall at Pissevache, bridge at St. Maurice, Lake Maggiore, Arona, Sesto, Milan, Lake Como, etc. Tooley 446, which notes that the work was issued later with title still dated 1820, but that is manifestly not the case here since plates are dated 1819 and 1820 and the publisher's quarter leather binding is consistent with the first issue as thus. (Some plates were issued earlier in Ackermann's Repository.) The publication itself should be seen as a product of the building appreciation of Alpine and Swiss scenery, once scorned, that began in the 1700s, and in particular British fascination with it. Custom clamshell case. Some offsetting from plates, including from frontis to title. Soiling of frontis in margins especially. Clamshell box has a few loose seams along joints and other minor wear. Plates have watermarks from 1819 and 1820. Quarter Morocco over Cloth Boards, with Custom Cloth Clamshell Case.

Aggiungi al carrello3pp., 12mo. 55 lines, neatly and closely written. Good, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed to 'Mr W. Shoberl.' An excellent letter, giving an experienced and knowledgable view of the state of the mid-Victorian British booktrade. Redding begins by stating that he is 'indeed concerned to hear the statement' Shoberl has communicated…to him. He wishes it was in his power to forward Shoberl's wishes. 'The Downward tendency of our present literature and its continued deterioration by the utter disregard for any thing on the part of the public but that which any body may do, with the continual competition as to price among the booksellers, have utterly destroyed authorship. The American looks to costing nothing for copyright, reprinted here as of English authorship reduce the chances of obtaining employment very low indeed. I feel the times too much myself not to sympathise with others. There is not a boarding school girl whose diatribes do not ascend in the market, better than those of an educated person who has had long experience. The prospect is gloomy enough', and Redding cannot help him. 'I have no business connections out of the old way, and so far from finding my present cause a prosperous one I look to the future with apprehension. My life with 50 years of adventures is nearly ready, but I almost despair of doing any thing with it, though I have records of so many well known characters to display.' Redding remembers Shoberl's father well, 'and when you speak of friends gone off the stage of existence I can assure you I feel the same'. In the final paragraph he again expresses a desire to assist Shoberl if he can, and he expresses a hope 'that things may soon take a turn' with him. Shoberl did gain employment in the book trade, first as assistant to the London publisher Henry Colburn, and then as a publisher in his own right.

The English writer and illustrator Frederic Schoberl spent the better part of a decade on The World in Miniature, meticulously recording information from many sources and creating hundreds of drawings for the pocket-sized book series. The text describes the customs, manners, costumes, and industries of societies around the world. That world is viewed through a very English lens, with little attempt at objectivity. England herself occupies four volumes, the Indian subcontinent in which she was so interested occupies six, and South America - whose sole British colony was British Guiana - is overlooked entirely. Nonetheless, the series was an important introduction to other cultures for readers at the time, and the exquisite color plates still delight today. Complete sets are rare.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst separate British edition. This beautifully illustrated book was first issued as Voyage Pittoresque de Genève à Milan par le Simplon (1811) and then by Ackermann from 1818 to 1820 in his monthly magazine, the Repository of Arts. The Simplon Road was still a relatively new construction, built between 1801 and 1805 on the ord…ers of Napoleon to facilitate the transport of artillery between the Rhône valley and Italy. Following the Napoleonic Wars, it opened up new vistas to tourists, enabling them to admire the fashionably "picturesque" qualities of the scenery, exemplified in the present series of views by the celebrated Swiss landscape artists Gabriel Lory the Elder and his son Mathias Gabriel; the latter is describing the Simplon Pass as "grand et terrible" and "comparing its effect on the imagination to Pergolesi's Stabat Mater and Haydn's Creation" (cited in Bevis, p. 140). The views include scenes of Geneva, Sion, Brieg, Simplon, Algaby, Lake Maggiore, Gondo, Isola Bella, Crevola, Sesto, Lake Como, and Milan. The text was supplied by Frederic Schoberl, who had a long association with the publisher Rudolph Ackermann, described as "the great presiding genius, before whose magic wand so many pictorial books sprang into existence" (Hardie, p. 96). Not in Abbey; Prideaux, pp. 351 and 377; Tooley 446. Richard Bevis, The Road to Egdon Heath: The Aesthetics of the Great in Nature, 1999; Martin Hardie, English Coloured Books, 1906. Quarto (262 x 175 mm). With 36 hand-coloured aquatint plates (Whatman watermarks dated 1819 and 1820), engraved map by H. Frost, tissue guards. Contemporary dark blue half calf, spine with 4 low raised bands, each decorated with a gilt triple fillet closed by foliate finials, gilt-lettered direct, other compartments with gilt foliate motif enclosed by a frame of paired gilt fillets and scrolling foliate tools, sides and corners trimmed with a blind decorative roll, marbled sides, endpapers, and edges. Binding just a little rubbed, small old repair to front cover, light bumps to a couple of corners, plate facing p. 78 lacking tissue guard. A very good copy.
