Sobre este artículo
Published for the Proprietors (Ingram and Cooke, Printers), London: -1845., 1843 Four volumes. pp. 348; 320; 360; 352. Color lithographed (illuminated) title pages, and chapter heads. Numerous fine line woodcuts used as additional chapter heads or illustrations. All of the engravings were executed under the superintendence of E. Landells. The volumes have full page etchings or woodcuts and smaller work by: John Leech (1817-1864) a brilliant and prolific English caricaturist and illustrator; Hablot Knight Browne (1815-1882) an English artist, famous as Phiz, the illustrator of many books by Charles Dickens; William James Linton (1812-1897) an engraver and political activist; Kenny Meadows (1790-1874); and many others often associated with the magazine Punch. Early half red morocco leather over marbled boards. Joints fragile. Spine of the last volume lacks a 1.5" piece of leather. Large 4to. 285 mm. Hardbound. Very good. The editor, Douglas William Jerrold (1803-1857) was an English dramatist, writer, editor, and wit. He is most closely associated with PUNCH. Punch was a humorous and liberal publication and Jerrold, under the pseudonym 'Q', used satire to attack institutions of the day. His liberal satirical inclinations can be seen in 'The Illuminated Magazine' as well. Some of the articles are quite remarkable. Often noted are those on social conditions - prisons, the poor, etc. The articles range across a wide spectrum of art, taste, manners, customs, and observations. They are often quite remarkable. The original edition of the full set, as offered here, is rarely encountered today. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! W79 Language: eng. Hardcover. Very Good.
