Compositions From the Tragedies of Aeschylus.
Published by London: Seeley, Jackson & Halliday., 1879
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Gray cloth printed in black. Oblong quarto. 11 by 8 inches. Illustrated with 36 leaves of plates. Later edition of this selection of engraved illustrations by the sculptor and draughstman John Flaxman. This copy is notable in that it belonged to the artist and potter William Bower Dalton (1868-1965) who studied at Manchester School of Art and was head of Camberwell School of Arts from 1895-1920. It is inscribed to him in 1889 on the blank across from the title page by 7 fellow artists with ties to the Manchester School of Art. These include the landscape painter and printmaker Sydney Lee, the book illustrator and artist Herbert Cole, James Lattimer, R.W. White, Horace B. Evans, Lehmann Oppenheimer and one other whose last name is Orton. A good copy with some soiling and wear to the cloth. The front hinge is split and some of the first section of leaves is loose with some light edge-chipping. The plates for the most part are in good condition with some minor soiling and wear.
