Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Allen and his pet Byte are Earths newest Visitors. The Earthlings seem very friendly to Allen - in fact, they run and scream whenever they see him! Thankfully, Allen has brought some of his favourite alien toys along so that he can play with the Earthlings. Theyre sure to love his supersonic… horn and his x-ray gun. Although Allen is having a lot of fun playing, he doesnt seem to understand that the Earthlings arent quite ready for a guest like him! Allen the Alien is a story about understanding and accepting difference. The simple text tells the story from Allens point of view, while the Illustrations reveal that Allen is completely oblivious to the fact that the Earthlings are terrified of him. Readers will love the hilarious reactions of the Earthlings to Allens shenanigans, that are captured in the wonderfully quirky illustrations. With a unique artistic style and fantastic rhythm, Allen the Alien is a humorous and multi-layered read. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Aleck Morton (illustrator).

First American edition printed at the same time as the British brown c w/gilt titles; floral decorative end papers; 151 clean, unmarked pages but sor slight marginal foxing. Herbert Ward was preparing to return to England when Stanley, who was assembling the Emin Pasha… relief expedition, appointed him as a lieutenant and placed him under the command of Major Edmund Barttelot in the expedition's Rear Guard. The Rear Guard was supposed to have resupplied Stanley s expedition, but disease and the treachery of the Chief Tippu-Tib kept them from making their rendezvous. By the time Stanley returned to find them, two of its officers and more than 100 of its porters had died. Considerable blame was being spread among the various parties involved, along with accusations of ineptitude, vice and even corruption. Herbert felt his character, and that of others, had been maligned for their part in the fiasco. This is his side of the story, written so that the public could come to a fair and impartial judgment of their own. owner's insc on fore-pages. Map By F.S. Weller (illustrator).

Contact seller5-star sellerMezzotint. A fine image of childhood after Paye who 'especially excelled in painting children, both as single portraits and in groups' (DNB) One odd feature of late 18th century British genre paintings and prints from our present point of view was the discovery of children as suitable subjects of interest. Previously, children r…arely appeared in paintings usually as participants in a religious or mythological scene, and not as children per se. Children as they were as opposed to future adults presented a problem for many artists: how to realistically capture childish activities, childish exuberance, childish despair? One of the most successful children artists was R. M. Paye (d. 1821) as demonstrated in this superb snowball fight in which six children each exemplify aspects of childhood experience: fear, joy, capriciousness, pity and so forth. The random arrangement of figures caught in mid-motion, unposed and without self-consciousness enhance the child-like feeling of fun and freedom. It's a story without moral or ulterior meaning. Richard Morton Paye was a renowned painter, who gained a noted reputation through his delicate paintings of children and his accomplished portraits. This lovely print by Ward is a wonderful example of Paye's best work, it shows the talents of the painter as well as the proficiency of the engraver. William Ward is remembered as one of the most accomplished engravers of his day. He produced some of the most beautiful prints of the period, and his delicate engravings epitomize the style and sentiment of the age. Ward was primarily a mezzotint engraver but he also worked in stipple, executing hauntingly delicate prints that capture the soul and character of their subject. He studied under John Raphael Smith and quickly became one of his most distinguished pupils, incorporating his masters' delicate technique into his own distinctive style. Along with his brother James, William was a regular exhibitor at the Royal Academy and soon earned the privilege of becoming mezzotint engraver to the prince regent. For any print connoisseur the work of William Ward epitomizes the best of English printmaking. His fine technical skill and inspired artistic imagination combine to create enduring images that speak of the taste and beauty of the age.
