London: George Allen,, 1894-1897. In the original wrappers First edition, limited to 1,000 copies on handmade paper (with a further 27 on japon), a remarkably fresh set in the original unrestored wrappers of this grand production, one of Crane's most distinguished works of illustration. Crane's designs encompass both an Art Nouveau and an Arts & Crafts aesthetic - he had, of course, worked with Morris at the Kelmscott Press - and this edition of Spenser's epic was issued at the height of his fame: he had an exhibition of his work touring Europe "and he was delighted to find that German collectors and museums bought his allegorical paintings, which chimed with German symbolist work" (ODNB).
