Galerie des artistes anglais de l'école moderne, ou collection de gravures d'après Turner, Roberts, Bonington...

Chez Desenne, à Paris 1835 - 1837, 2 tomes en 2 Vol. in 4 (21,5x27,5cm), relié.

Edition of two series published in 1835 and 1836 respectively. 36 steel engravings power the first volume and the second 40 or 76 prints engraved by various English writers and imrpimées on strong paper under curve. A large vignette title and frontispiece in the second volume, both dated 1836, they could not be part of the first. Half green morocco signed Boutigny. The second volume, although using the same irons (and the same paper sheet), and out of the same workshop is in a significantly different binding (connected two years later), half marine shagreen, the whole being finally more aesthetic than if the color was similar. Iron romantic long gilt. Beautiful blue marbled paper. Despite a few tiny foxing to the place of serpentes and margins, very fine copy. The choice of works gives pride to major sites in Europe, there is even the Mont Saint-Michel, and universal representations, like Don Quixote. Each work is accompanied by a blurb. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate. Contact us for any information!
