Early inscriptions on first free endpapers. Illustrated by 79 hand-coloured aquatint plates, signed by Thomas Rowlandson, including 3 frontispieces, by 2 vignette engraved title pages and by tailpiece vignettes. Originally issued in serial parts in Ackermann's, The Poetical Magazine in 1809 and on completion in book form in 1812; this copy has wide text margins as issued. The character of Dr Syntax, a satire on William Gilpin, a proponent of the concept of the picturesque in his writings, at once became immensely popular, with the public demanding more. Doctor Syntax in Search of the Picturesque is a story in verse of a travelling schoolmaster and was originally entitled The Schoolmaster's Tour and later The First Tour, or Tour to the Lakes. The work was reprinted a number of times during the following decades. The first two editions were so popular that the plates had become very worn. In this third edition, Rowlandson has re-engraved them, giving them a sharp and attractive appearance. This collaboration of illustrator, author, and publisher. A fine early set, splendidly illustrated by Thomas Rowlandson and bound by Remnant and Edmonds. (Abbey 266-67, referring to the original parts. Hardie, English Coloured Books, p.167-70).
