Illustrated by Hugh Thomson with the plates on Tissue and tipped in. xxvii, [1], 476, [1] pp. Printed at the Chiswick Press. 1 vols. 4to. In the late 1880's and through the 90's, a remarkable illustrator made his appearance on the London scene: Hugh Thomson (1860-1920), perhaps the pre-eminent representative of what has come to be known as 'the Wig and Powder School' of English illustration.

It is the first edition to have illustrations accompany the text: the 1813 first edition was unillustrated, and Bentley's 1833 edition and subsequent printings had only a frontispiece. The illustrator, Hugh Thomson (1860-1920), "was in constant demand, particularly for the classics with their opportunities for historical subject treatment" (Peppin & Micklethwait, p. 299).
