Contact seller5-star seller4to, original half green morocco with ribbed green cloth over boards, spine in five compartments, gilt title and raised bands; light purple watered silk endpapers with leaf and tendril pattern. Engraved frontis. port., engraved half-title, [iv], 164 pp., 78 steel-engraved views and 1 full-page engraved map with inset. An intimat…e and rich observation of life in Constantinople in 1836 by Miss Julia Pardoe (1806-1862), in collaboration with popular topographical artist W. H. Bartlett, depicting the Ottoman empire during an era of growing European influence and illustrated throughout with delightful engravings after Bartlett. Miss Pardoe traveled to Constantinople with her father in 1836-7, inspiring first the work "City of the Sultan" in 1836 and then the collaborative "Beauties of the Bosphorus" in 1838. In the tradition of travel writer Lady Mary Wortley Montegu, Pardoe focuses her attention on the Turkish culture. According to Pardoe, "The work [Beauties of Bosphorus] is purely a descriptive one and I have followed this talented artist [Bartlett] wheresoever he has led me, and found him no inefficient guide. Together we have visited mosques, wandered in burial places, climbed mountains, and glided over the sun-lighted Bosphorus." Indeed, illustrated with graceful words and exquisite drawings are: panoramic views, camels, kiosques, Turkish baths, slave markets, harems, aqueducts, markets, homes, the Valley of Sweet Waters and more. Pardoe delighted in the "varying character of the native population, constituted as it is by such anomalous materials -- the truthful Turk, the wily Greek, the stately Armenian and the timid Jew." Also, "I was able to penetrate the very center of Turkish society, and to domesticate myself with both princes and peasants." The work is dedicated to Mustafa Rechid Pasha, a government official who embraced modern reform and was an architect of the Tanzimat constitutional reform. The map, entitled "Environs of Constantinople with the Thracian Bosphorus", was drawn and engraved by W. Hughes and depicts Istanbul from the Black Sea in the north to the Sea of Marmara in the south, with the Bosphorus separating the "Part of Turkey in Europe" and the "Part of Turkey in Asia." Also included is an inset map entitled "Continuation of the Coast with the Princes Islands." CONDITION: Very good, rubbed at extremities, mild splash stains on covers, 2" partial separation of bottom front endpaper, generally clean and attractive. Heavy book. May require additional postage.

Bartlett would have been inconceivable without this new process (of steel engraving).

First edition in book form. American Scenery shows the principal American cities of the day, including Baltimore, Albany and Philadelphia, and famous scenic vistas, such as Niagara Falls and the Hudson Palisades. Most of the illustrations depict New York and New England, with others of Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Bartle…tt and Willis were introduced by their mutual friend, Dr William Beattie. Bartlett had established a name for himself as a book artist through his illustrations of Europe and the Middle East. Willis had published a successful travel account of Europe, titled Pencillings by the Way, in 1835, and followed it in 1836 with Inklings of Adventure, an account of the lands surrounding his home in Susquehanna. American Scenery was his first luxury illustrated publication. To achieve it, Bartlett "spent a year in America, during which time he visited Niagara, stayed at Willis's home in the Susquehanna, and together they toured Wyoming" (Hunnisett, p. 114). American Scenery was originally issued in 30 monthly instalments from 1837-39 by the same publisher. Howes B209, Sabin 3784. Basil Hunnisett, Steel-Engraved Book Illustration in England, 1980. 2 vols, quarto (275 x 205). With steel-engraved portrait frontispiece, vignette title pages, and 117 plates by W. H. Bartlett, 1 map, most with tissue guards. Contemporary black pebble-grain roan, spines in gilt compartments, covers richly decorated with gilt frames and centrepieces, board edges and turn-ins tooled in gilt, blue moire endpapers and matching silk bookmarkers, all edges gilt. Gilt bright, vol. I with small chip and short split at foot of spine, two corners worn, a few plates foxed, occasional offsetting to facing pages. A very good set.
