London: Thomas Tegg, 1829. A New Edition. 2 vols. 8vo. xxxi, [1], 527, [1]; [4], 601, [1] pp. Publisher's textured green cloth, printed paper spine labels; cloth worn at extremities, evidence of labels removed from spines, occasional foxing, still an attractive set The standard artist biographical dictionary of its time, first published in 1770 as The Gentleman's and Connoisseur's Dictionary of Painters. "[It] ranks as the first original treatment of the subject in English, giving special attention to the Italians (who were then at the height of fashion), to the Dutch and Flemish (who were not), and to the contemporary art market in both the British Isles and the Low Countries. Periodically expanded, revised, and retitled (as A Dictionary of Painters in Henry Fuseli's 1805 and 1810 editions, A General Dictionary of Painters after 1824) this held its own for nearly a century, the last edition appearing in 1857" (ODNB)
