Hardcover. 12mo. Full dark brown calf. (24pp), 374pp. Full-page engraving (unnumbered p. 24), historiated initials, tailpieces, decorative endpapers. Good only. Binding is quite edgeworn and scuffed (mainly at spine and corners) yet strong-hinged; original decorative pastedown portions of endpapers present and nice, with front/rear flyleaf portions lacking; most of text block tight and attractive, with first half dozen numbered leaves showing early paper mends to bottom and outer margins; lacks eight leaves (1-2, 15-16, 19-20, 21-22, 23-24, 25-26, 27-28, 29-30); 19th c. bookplate of Dominican academy on front pastedown and miniscule inkstamped convent at bottom of title page. A decent and quite handleable copy, entirely in Latin and printed in black and red, of this (roughly translated) "Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary According to the Rite of the Sacred Order of the Friars Preachers" -- a Catholic devotional book devoted to Mary and shorter version of the "Divine Office," with daily prayers, scripture, psalms, hymns and other readings. This particular version is connected to Baltasar de Quiñones (1733-98), a Dominican cleric from Spain named Master of the Order of Preachers (1777-98). Despite flaws, a presentable example in original binding.

Provenance: Horace de Landau (1824-1904), bookplate, shelfmark no 47854; Vicomte de Cossette, armorial bookplate.*** A rococo binding on a luxuriously printed and illustrated Office of the Virgin, from the Salvioni press, official printers to the Vatican. The Salvioni press used several workshops, sometimes collectively mislabeled as the "Vatican" or "Salvioni" bindery. Those bound for the papal library were finely executed, and different binderies can be identified by their tools, color of leather, and stylistic details. The present pretty but crowded binding decor, with its in places overlapping tooling, does not seem to belong to the corpus of binderies represented in, for example, the Vatican Library's 1977 exhibit catalogue of papal bindings. Stylistically it uses types of tools and decoration - the wide "Louis XV" style border, and the basketweave cornerpieces - in vogue during the reigns of Clement XIV (1769-1774) and Pius VI (1775-1799). Its decoration is similar, for example, to binding no. 262 in Legature papali, but it is of inferior workmanship, and does not use the same tools. It was probably produced in a Roman shop executing many commissions and forced to work quickly, although it could even be a provincial binding. Cf. Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Legature papali da Eugenio IV a Paolo VI, no. 262, plate CXCI.

8vo (208 x 133 mm). [24], 407, [1] pp. 2 parts, the Office of the Dead separately titled. Printed in red and black. Engraved frontispiece and 12 full-page engravings by Arnold Van Weserhout and Jacob Frey after Joseph Passarus (Giuseppe Passaro), two engraved title vignettes, 12 engraved tailpiece vignettes, a few unsigned, others by Frey after Passaro or by M. Schedi (engraver), 3 engraved capital initials, numerous red-printed woodcut initials. Foxing, occasionally severe, short marginal tear to fol. Z7. Slightly later eighteenth-century Roman gold-tooled red goatskin, covers with large dentelle border composed of a triple neo-classical roll-tooled outer frame enclosing six large ornaments each with a basketweave design of diagonally crossing gilt fillets framed in volutes and leafy sprigs, a few tiny petal or star tools, board edges protected with a probably later frame of silver or silver-plated metal discreetly nailed to the binding, two elaborately chased silver fore-edge clasps and catches, spine in six uniformly gold-tooled compartments, gilt edges with gauffred border design, pair of green ribbon page markers, marbled endpapers; 20th-century black morocco felt-lined case. Provenance: with Gumuchian, Catalogue XII/1930/225; Maurice Burrus, bookplate, purchased from Gumuchian in 1934, purchase notes at end. Astriking rococo binding, in fine condition, on a luxuriously printed and illustrated Office of the Virgin, from the official Vatican press. From the mid- to late eighteenth century, the Salvioni press used one or more bookbinding workshops that produced finely gold-tooled bindings for their Vatican publications. Although often referred to as the ?Salvioni bindery,? this appellation is circumstantial: ?the Salvioni firm was responsible for promoting the bindings, but it is not known which workshop produced them? (British Library Database of Bookbindings). Some of these ?Vatican? bindings incorporated variously colored or mottled leather. This example, with its basketweave cartouches, relies purely on tooling for its effect. An example evidently from the same workshop, on a book printed at Rome in 1791 by Salomini, using analogous cartouches as corner-pieces as well as a similar ?spiraling? border design and some of the same leafy spray and star tools, is reproduced in Legature papali, no. 264. ?Whereas the . more flamboyant bindings produced by the Salvioni Bindery rely frequently on polychrome enamel heightening, these Vatican bindings strike a somewhat more sober note with their very fine dark-red morocco and rich gold-tooling of high quality? (Martin Breslauer, Catalogue 107/428). Gumuchian, Catalogue de Reliures du XVe au XIXe siecle, no. 225, plate 68. Cf. British Library Database of Bookbindings, Shelfmark c27e18; For other ?Salvioni? bindings see Miner / Walters Art Gallery, The History of Bookbinding, no. 523; Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Legature papali da Eugenio IV a Paolo VI, no. 264, plate CXCIII.

170 x 118 mm. (6 3/4 x 4 5/8"). Single column, verso with 15 lines in a gothic book hand. One four-line initial in blue with white embellishments, filled with pink and blue leaves, verso with three-quarter bar border of repeating orange and blue ivy on gold ground, and a panel border of acanthus and flowers on lobed shapes with gold ground or on bare vellum, recto with A HALF-PAGE ARCH-TOPPED MINIATURE depicting the Virgin and Child with a kneeling female patron holding a book, surrounded by a three-quarter gold and painted frame and a border of fruit, flowers, and acanthus on lobed or circular shapes filled with painted gold or on bare vellum. Rule at bottom of border just slightly grazed (margins otherwise quite ample), odd violet discoloration in vellum (a color transfer because of moisture?) on verso apparent (only) on the undecorated surface, with gilt and paint unaffected (the border at top and bottom on the side with the miniature with faint pinkish show-through), small mounting stains in five places in margins of verso, but the miniature itself nevertheless perfectly preserved, and the leaf sparkling with gold. This leaf is as joyful as the text it contains. The 15 Joys of the Virgin Mary is a prayer that was frequently added at the end of a Book of Hours, especially those produced in France in the 15th century. It celebrates the joyous moments in the Virgin's life (the Annunciation, Nativity, wedding feast at Cana, Pentecost, and so on), each beginning with the phrase "Doulce dame." The prayer was often paired with a miniature of the Virgin and Child Enthroned, as it is here, accompanied by the portrait of a female patron (also seen here). Despite the pinkish aura here, the present example is very pleasing, being replete with gold and full of detail skillfully realized by a talented artist. The molding of the faces is excellent, with subtle gray tones sculpting realistic features over porcelain skin. Although the Virgin is the largest figure in the composition (signifying her importance), the female patron is also a clearly announced presence. Beautifully dressed in golden robes and a black conical hennin draped with a delicate sheer veil, she kneels before a large codex, her hand resting gently on its open pages. Her finery clearly marks her as a member of the wealthy elite--a person who could afford such a costly accessory as a Book of Hours.
