Fables: with a Life of the Author and Embellished with Seventy Plates
by John Gay, William Blake engravings
- Used
- very good
- Hardcover
Very good copy of the first edition of Gay's Fables with the William Blake engravings.
First issue of the Stockdale edition, distinguished by the use of the long "s" throughout the text, two volumes bound in one.
Complete with the "Gay Monument" frontispiece, two engraved title-pages with vignettes, and 68 engraved plates

Blake had launched his own career publishing The Book of Thel and The Marriage of Heaven and Hell by this time, and started taking on commercial book illustrating and engraving jobs such as Mary Wollstonecraft's Original Stories from Real Life (1791) and Fables (1793).
Plates newly engraved by Blake, William Grainger, Philip Audinet, Peter Mazell, William Skelton, Lovegrove, Wilson and Cook after original designs by John Wootton, William Kent and Hubert Francois Gravelot from the 1729-1747 editions.
With the List of Subscribers and one page advertisement in rear. Blake's name is listed alongside the other engravers Philip Audinet, Peter Mazell and William Skelton.
Large octavo size, in three-quarter red morocco with some scuffing to spine and corners, five raised bands, dark green leather title label and gilt tooling on spine, marbled boards and endpapers, t.e.g., some scattered spotting to text and plates.

Description:
This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
