Sobre este artículo
London: Edward Moxon, 1837. First Edition. Spine sunned a shade; bookplate on front pastedown, alongside a small portrait of Campbell; bookseller's description pasted in first blank. 8vo, frontispiece, [x], 306pp; crushed morocco gilt, with elaborative decorative spine-tooling by L. Brock; a.e.g. A most handsome copy, embellished with two signed documents tipped in: a handwritten ticket admitting the bearer to a reading by Campbell (1818) and an autograph letter signed by Campbell to a friend named Williams, inviting him to come see a newly completed portrait by an artist he calls Thomson, possibly Irish painter Thomas Clement Thompson, who executed a portrait of Campbell in 1833, the same year as this letter. This volume features a superb sequence of steel-engraved vignettes by J.M.W. Turner. An appealing copy with no spotting or discoloration to fine vignettes.
