Hardcover. Condizione: New. Outlines from the Figures and Compositions upon the Greek, Roman, and Etruscan Vases William Hamilton, Thomas Kirk Limited Edition by Woodbank Press First published in London in 1804, *Outlines from the Figures and Compositions upon the Greek, Roman, and Etruscan Vases* occupies an important place in the history of classical scholarship and the decorative arts. Conceived as a visual compendium of ancient vase painting, the work introduced the formal language of Greek and Roman antiquity to artists, collectors and designers throughout Europe, helping to shape the neoclassical taste of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Sir William Hamilton (1730-1803), British diplomat, antiquarian and collector, devoted much of his life to the study of classical antiquities while serving as British envoy to the Kingdom of Naples. His celebrated collection of Greek, Roman and Etruscan vases became one of the principal sources through which the art of antiquity was rediscovered in eighteenth-century Europe. The engravings, executed by Thomas Kirk (1765-1797), are remarkable for their clarity, precision and balance. Their influence extended well beyond classical scholarship, inspiring architects, designers and manufacturers, including the celebrated Greek-pattern wares produced by Josiah Spode. The Woodbank Press Edition Published by Woodbank Press in a strictly limited edition of **25 numbered copies**, this quarto edition is newly typeset in **Monotype Bulmer**, the distinguished typeface associated with William Bulmer's Shakespeare Press and among the finest British faces of the late eighteenth century. The volume is printed on **Century Laid**, a mould-made pure cotton paper whose laid surface recalls the character of historic handmade papers while offering exceptional permanence. Each copy is hand bound in half leather with marbled boards, a gilt-decorated spine, marbled edges and a custom-made slipcase. The edition has been designed in the classical European tradition, with particular attention given to typography, proportion and craftsmanship. Produced in a limitation of only twenty-five copies, the edition is intended to be read, collected and preserved.

xix, 52pp, 62 engraved plates 26x17, boards, printed label to spine The later binding is tight and secure, though slightly bumped and rubbed; the text pages are fragile and somewhat crockled, the plates - on better paper - are clear and bright; there is some foxing throughout. Hamilton's collection of vases - in fact two, assembled at different times - was enormously influential on contemporary artistic tastes. The first edition was published by William Miller in 1804, this second edition ten years later.…
