Green hardback book, with gilt titles on the spine, comes with translucent dust jacket, which have green flap sides to hold the dust jacket in position, price clipped. The book is in really good condition, normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age.… Folio Society first edition of 1955, printed by letterpress, reprinted by photo-litho in 1973. 127 pages all intact, nice tight binding. All pages, text and illustrations are in really good, clean, readable order. Printed in Great Britain by The Pitman Press, Bath. Set in Poliphilus Type and bound by J.M. Dent & Sons Ltd, Letchworth. The golden island of Tahiti seemed a paradise to the sea-weary crew of H.M.S Dolphin when, in 1767, they first set foot on its shores. This account of their experiences was written by the Master, to whose vivid and unspoken narrative have been added some piquant details from the Journals of other members of his ship's company. It paints an extremely entertaining picture of what happened when a party of English sailors stumbled into a Garden of Eden. Robert Gibbings, the illustrator, knew Tahiti well, and loved it: his engravings , exquisite in detail, convey all the timeless fascination of the island better than any camera. A brilliant read and definitively a book to be preserved for future generations.

Organised religions usually appear 100s of years after the life of the enlightened Master (not that Jesus was definiteley enlightened) because some people start drawing power and advantage from the wisdom of the -ism's origin. Every -ism is only an institutionalised, rather dead, knowledgeable copy of the original and tries to prevent searchers to find their individual way, just as Gautama Siddhartha - and many others - did who certainly NEVER followed any -ism.

Birmingham Post clipping (10.02.1978) 'The family fired with enthusiasm,' about the Ruskin Pottery, laid in. Fine. A gorgeous first edition copy of L. B. Powell's illustrated memoir (and memorial) of Ruskin Pottery's master potter, Howson Taylor, printed under the direction of master printer Leonard Jay at the City of Birmingham School of Printing, Central School of Arts and Crafts, with student and staff collaboration, including "Compositors' work by boys in the pre-apprentice classes"; from the library of Jay's friends, the Birmingham-based artists Ernest and Catherine Hill, with their supplied cream paper dust jacket (nicked). The Ruskin Pottery was founded in 1898 by William Howson Taylor's father, Edward R. Taylor, who was headmaster of Birmingham School of Art. Howson Taylor (1876-1935), and the pottery, were renowned for their "remarkable glazes". The pottery closed in July 1935, when Taylor retired (and died in the September); the formulae for the glazes and all the pottery documentation were destroyed to prevent reproductions. Master printer-craftsman and pioneer of printing education, Leonard Jay (1888-1963) came from a family "steeped in printing". An Artisan Art Scholarship allowed Jay to attend the London County Council Central School of Arts and Crafts, Holborn from 1909, where "he enrolled on the newly established typography evening classes run by the printer-scholar John Henry Mason" and in 1912 was appointed Mason's first assistant instructor. Diverging from his mentor's focus on traditional hand-processes, Jay "understood if technical education was to succeed it had to work with existing trade practices," and introduced students to commercial printing, demonstrating "that quality bookwork could be produced using modern machinery" (ODNB). In 1925 Jay was appointed the first head of the Birmingham School of Printing, "the largest centre of printing outside London," where he would remain until his retirement in 1953. "Through an innovative publishing programme, Jay provided all students with the opportunity to produce at least one piece of work of great distinction of which they could be justly proud" and under his direction around 150 (the number varies) finely printed books and pamphlets, including this one, were produced by the Department's students and staff. A friend of Jay's, Ernest F. Hill, RBSA (1873-1960) was a British painter, arts educator and Vice President of the Royal Birmingham Society of Artists (RSBA). An early Newlyn group member, he worked primarily in watercolour, favouring British landscape and coastal scenes; he exhibited at the Royal Academy until 1946, Royal Institute of Oil Painters, but his paintings were most often hung in Birmingham (CAI, 2021). Hill was Headmaster of the prestigious Bournville School of Art and Crafts, and was well-connected in regional cultural networks, as well as with the Cadbury family. Less in known of Catherine Hill, who was a watercolour artist, print maker and book binder. Their library reflected these interests, featuring numerous arts and crafts, typographical and fine press books, often in excellent condition, thanks to the addition of hand-marbled, clear or paper wrappers (as here).

Add to basketLeaf: 160 x 110 mm. (6 1/4 x 3/8"); Frame: 232 x 185 mm. (9 1/8 x 7 1/4"). Recto with three lines, single column, in a gothic book hand (verso not inspected due to frame). Mounted in a wooden frame. Recto with a three-line initial in blue on gold ground embellished with ivy leaves, A HALF-PAGE MINIATURE DEPICTING THE MASS OF ST.… GREGORY, the recently crucified Christ depicted emerging from a tomb supported by an angel and surrounded by the Arma Christi, St. Gregory kneeling at the corner of the image, the text and miniature framed by thick bar borders of pink, blue, and gold on three sides, all SURROUNDED BY A FULL BORDER of hairline vines, gilt ivy leaves and bezants, and a few colorful flowers and acanthus. A little faint smudging in top and bottom borders, very small (scarcely noticeable) area of blue background retouched (not affecting the figures), but A BEAUTIFUL LEAF, the colors bright and the detail in the miniature very well preserved. Featuring carefully realized detail, intriguing iconography, and artistry that shows a very high degree of skill, this is an important and early example of the work of the Master of the Harvard Hannibal. The subject of the present work is a well-known story about the sixth century Pope Gregory (ca. 540-604), commonly known as St. Gregory the Great. According to legend, Gregory was saying Mass when one of his deacons expressed a doubt in the doctrine of Transubstantiation, whereby the communion bread actually becomes the body of Christ. Gregory prayed to God for a verifying sign, whereupon Christ appeared in the guise of the Man of Sorrows, clad in a loincloth and displaying the bloody wounds he incurred during the Crucifixion. Most Medieval miniatures depict Gregory kneeling before an altar as he says Mass, accompanied by one or more deacons or assistants who bear witness to the miraculous event. In a notable departure from this norm, the present miniature depicts the saint alone at the edge of the picture plane; in place of the chalice, host, and altar that would normally occupy the center of the scene is a considerable, open tomb from which a larger-than-life-size Christ emerges. With blood still rushing from his wounds, he places one hand on the edge of the tomb to steady himself while an angel supports him from behind. Christ's expression conveys both physical and mental pain as he struggles to support his own bodyweight; the angel who assists him spreads his wings protectively around the body of Christ, while looking down at Gregory with a sorrowful expression knitted into his brow. The fine detail work seen in the figures' faces, the angel's wings, and the careful delineation of each slender finger is also carried over into more than a dozen objects crammed into the spaces in and around the tomb (the rope is especially remarkable in the representation of its detail). Known as the "Arma Christi," or "Instruments of the Passion," these objects are meant to symbolize Christ's suffering. Seen here are: the cross, nails, and hammer that were used to crucify Christ, the ladder used in the Deposition, the disembodied hand symbolizing the one which slapped Christ's face, the dice used by soldiers to see who would claim his seamless robe, a lantern used by the soldiers who arrested Christ, the 30 pieces of silver from Judas' betrayal, a purple robe used in the mockery of Christ, and other items that appear as part of the Passion narrative. It is also interesting to note that although a St. Gregory miniature usually appears at the beginning of the Hours of the Cross, the Penitential Psalms, or before the Seven Prayers of St. Gregory, here, rather unusually, it opens a reading from John chapter 19 (beginning "In illo tempore adprehendit Pilatus Iesum et flagellavit"), describing the events of the Passion. This miniature can be attributed to an artist known as the Master of the Harvard Hannibal, so-named for a splendid miniature painting of the "Coronation of Hannibal" prefacing a Livy in the.
