Add to basketSoft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Marbled wrappers, printed paper label. Lower cover very mildly nicked at top edge. Edition limited to 135 numbered copies, of which this is one of 25 specially bound copies printed on Brigadoon paper signed by the author. "I was surprised to find later in life how severely the editi…on used at school was bowdlerised. Indeed, on re-perusal of the play the rudery still comes as a novelty. 'I would not so much make water but in a sink-a-pace' (I, iii, 127), for example, was a phrase entirely omitted. One sees that this would have initially aroused what Mr Frankie Howerd would call unseemly titters . . ." The author wrote to the printer, 8 November 1984, "George [Sims] has persuaded me that you might be interested to see this, though he himself has knowledge of it only through hearsay! As you can see by its dog-eared state, it has been to a few periodicals, but it never found a home. It does fall between a few stools, and I'm now so fed up with it I can no longer tell whether it is really interesting to the ordinary reader of the Bard, as intended. Perhaps its merit as far as you are concerned is that it poses some problems of setting. Be bloody, bold and resolute! I mean do not hesitate to return it.". Signed by Author(s).

Add to basketFour page setting of Feste's song 'Come Away, Death' from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. Written over four oblong octavo pages (a bifolium extracted from a book of printed manuscript paper) with prettily embossed borders. Neukomm sets the music for a low voice over two verses and with a keyboard accompaniment that introduces and e…nds his setting. At the conclusion he has inscribed the manuscript 'for Miss Giles. Ardwick Green 21/11 [18]32 Neukomm'. Sigismund von Keukomm (1778-1858) was a disciple and amanuensis to Joseph Haydn who came to England in 1829. The recipient of the MS seems likely to be Elizabeth or Mary Giles, daughters of William Giles who had a school at Ardwick Green in Manchester around this time.

Contact seller5-star sellerThe Deluxe Signed Twelfth Night With Forty Mounted Color Plates by W. Heath Robinson [ROBINSON, W. Heath, illustrator]. SHAKESPEARE, [William]. Shakespeare's Comedy of Twelfth Night, or What You Will. London: Hodder & Stoughton, [1908]. Edition de Luxe. Limited to 350 numbered copies signed by the artist (this copy No. 44). Larg…e quarto (11 1/4 x 8 7/8 inches; 286 x 226 mm.). [2, limitation leaf], xxiv, 143, [1] pp. Forty mounted color plates (including frontispiece), each on dark green stock and with descriptive tissue guards. Pictorial title, five vignette half-titles, and vignette tail-piece. Original vellum over boards, pictorially stamped and lettered in gilt on front cover and spine, top edge gilt, others uncut, dark green endpapers. Original yellow silk ties intact. Boards slightly bowed, as usual with vellum, but an exceptionally bright and well-preserved copy. Engraved bookplate of book collector Gwendolen Jefferson on the front paste-down. We have found records of several other books with her bookplate. A particularly handsome example of one of the most appealing illustrated Shakespeares of the Edwardian period. In this sumptuous de luxe issue, W. Heath Robinson departs from strict narrative illustration in favor of a more atmospheric and interpretive approach. Rather than depicting the principal dramatic episodes, he focuses on the lyrical and musical elements of the play - especially the songs - capturing the mood, wit, and underlying melancholy of Twelfth Night with a lightness and imaginative freedom that distinguishes his work from that of his contemporaries. By this stage in his career, Robinson was experimenting with subtler effects of light and tone, producing illustrations that are at once decorative and evocative, with a distinctly impressionistic quality. The result is a visual interpretation that complements Shakespeare's text not by literal translation, but by suggestion and atmosphere. The mounted plates, printed on dark green stock, heighten the decorative richness of the volume, while the vellum binding underscores its status as a luxury production of the Hodder & Stoughton Shakespeare series. A scarce signed limitation - particularly desirable in such bright condition, with the fragile silk ties preserved. Signed.

Robinson's atmospheric watercolours for this work were exhibited at the Brook Street Gallery in 1908 to great acclaim. A contemporary review in the Graphic noted that this illustrated edition "has the advantage of the poetic insight and decorative skill which… mark Mr W. Heath Robinson's serious work" and that the drawings were "instinct with the decorative spirit of the play". Robinson (1872-1944) has been described as "the most versatile" major book illustrator of his age in Britain (Peppin & Micklethwait, p. 259) and "the only British illustrator to become a 'household name'" (Houfe, p. 437). Graphic, 24 October 1908, p. 492; Simon Houfe, The Dictionary of British Book Illustrators and Caricaturists, 1800-1914; Brigid Peppin & Lucy Micklethwait, Dictionary of British Book Illustrators: The Twentieth Century, 1983.

Add to basketCondition: Very good condition. Signed in pencil by the artist at the lower right. A bold b&w woodcut depicting the character Feste, the fool, in Shakespeare's 'Twelfth Night'. He is depicted with a star topped staff over one shoulder, and with a clownish face. Feste converses with Count Orsino at the right, while a female chara…cter waits in the shadows at the left. Feste is the clown in Olivia's household, and moves between Olivia's and Count Orsino's homes. He earns his keep by cracking jokes, being bright and witty, and offering advice hidden behind a guise of foolishness. Feste often is portrayed as the wisest character in the play. Forain (1852 - 1931) was a French Impressionist painter and print maker, one of the most noted on the first few decades of the 1900s. He was the most famous caricaturist of the Belle Epoque, and was influenced by the work of Daumier and Degas, a life long friend and colleague. 11 1/2 x 13" on paper 14 3/4 x 21". Paper lightly toned. The print wonderfully bold, with graphic b&w decorative elements.
