CUMBERLAND (in 1787 he eloped with Mrs Elizabeth Cooper, née Price). 2 books bound together, each with its own title page and pagination. 4to, approximately 280 x 220 mm, 11 x 9 inches. LEWINA THE MAID OF SNOWDON, A TALE, etched frontispiece and 2 etched vignettes, pages: title page, [1]-32, [1] erratum followed by 2 blank leaves; A POEM ON THE LANDSCAPES OF GREAT-BRITAIN.

A note on page 36 of Landscapes suggests that further impressions, if called for, may well have extra plates. George Cumberland was an English art collector, writer and poet. He was a lifelong friend and supporter of William Blake, and like him was an experimental printmaker. He was also an amateur watercolourist, and one of the earliest members of the Bristol School of artists. Cumberland was also a collector of fossils and from 1810 was an honorary member of the Geological Society. In 1826 he published Reliquiae conservatae, a study of some fossil encrinites. William Blake died in 1827. The last engraving that Blake made was a visiting card for Cumberland, who had sent the plate to Blake for him to decorate. Blake did so by surrounding Cumberland's name with figures intended to represent the Seasons, including children hoop rolling and flying kites (Wikipedia). ESTC T3202 & 3203.

Description:
This is a very lovely small book of poetry by Dante Gabriel Rossetti with illustrations by Paul Woodroffe. It was published by David McKay, Philadelphia, and dates to circa 1916. This appears to be a special binding, more luxurious than the softcover binding that McKay published, because this one has covers of thick rose-colored suede leather with the title and author impressed deeply into the suede on the front cover and spine. The front and back have double-page illustrations by Paul Woodroffe, as shown, and the title page has a lovely design as well as a facing illustration; there are 3 other illustrations among the 27 pages. The illustrations are in the Arts & Crafts or Art Nouveau style. The page edges are gilt, as shown, and there is a pink ribbon bookmark sewn in. This is the only copy with this binding that I have found. Please use the zoom function to see the great details. This little volume has survived well for 100 years. The interiors are in good, clean condition; the only condition… Read More
