Dust jacket has label on the front, some wrinkling on the edges and corners, dust jacke…t and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 9.5"x6.5", 427 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. "SHE SPRANG FROM THE WOMB AND WAVED TO the crowd. Then smiled and took a bow." And so we first meet Venetia Kelly, the beguiling actress at the center of this new, spellbinding, and epic novel by Frank Delaney, the bestselling author of Ireland and Shannon. January 1932: While Ireland roils in the run-up to the most important national election in the Republic's short history, Ben MacCarthy and his father watch a vagabond variety revue making a stop in the Irish countryside. After a two-hour kaleidoscope of low comedy, Shakespearean recitations, juggling, tumbling, and other entertainments, Ben's father, mesmerized by Venetia Kelly, the troupe's magnetic headliner, makes a fateful decision: to abandon his family and set off on the road with Miss Kelly and her caravan. Ben's mother, shattered by the desertion, exhorts, "Find him and bring him back," thereby sending the boy on a Homeric voyage into manhood, a quest that traverses the churning currents of Ireland's fractious society and splinters the MacCarthy family. Interweaving historical figures including W. B. Yeats, and a host of unforgettable creations - "King" Kelly, Venetia's violent, Mephistophelean grandfather; Sarah Kelly, Venetia's mysterious, amoral mother; and even a truth-telling ventriloquist's dummy named Blarney - Frank Delaney unfurls a splendid narrative that spans half the world and a tumultuous, eventful decade. Teeming with intrigue, pathos, and humor, Venetia Kelly's Traveling Show explores two of Ireland's great national passions: theater and politics. Writing with his signature mastery and lyrical prose, Frank Delaney once again delivers an unforgettable story as big and boisterous as the people and events it chronicles. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Signed by Author.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. SOLE EDITION. Bound in 20th c. boards covered with a liturgical manuscript leaf. A fine, crisp copy with a little light marginal soiling; verso of final leaf also lightly soiled. Illustrated with 2 engraved title pages, a full-page portrait of Cosimo II, and 15 full-paged engraved plates. One of the e…ngravings is signed by Francesco Valeggio (or Valesio) (sculp.) and Philipp Esengren (delineauit.) Watanabe-O?Kelly identifies the second engraver as Filippo Csegtenio [?]. A lavishly-illustrated funeral book describing the obsequies held in Venice for Cosimo II de? Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany (1590-1621) and the elaborate décor created for the occasion. The opulent ceremonies were accompanied by music (now lost) by Monteverdi. The ceremony took place on 25 May 1621 in the church of the Dominican Fathers S.S. Giovanni and Paolo and the decorative programme was entrusted to the architect-painter Matteo Ingoli (b. 1587, Ravenna ? d. 1631, Venice, of the plague) who made use of the best Venice carvers and plasterers, all mentioned in the work. The beautiful engravings illustrate the funeral ceremony, the interior of the church, the grand catafalque, and the sculptures, paintings and bas-reliefs specially made to celebrate the splendor of the Medici family and its special relationship with the Serenissima Republic. Thousands of candles illuminated the interior and flanked the high altar, giving off such great heat that, had the weather not been unseasonably cool, the crowd would have been very uncomfortable (p. 19) Appended to the description of the funeral and the décor is the funeral oration by the Venetian poet and librettist Giulio Strozzi (1583 ?1652), who also delivered the funeral oration for Ferdinando I (d. 1609) and composed sonnets for the visit of Ferdinando II and Giancarlo de? Medici to Venice in 1628. Cicognara also attributes the descriptive text to Strozzi. Cosimo II de? Medici, elder son of Ferdinando I de? Medici and Christina of Lorraine, was Grand Duke of Tuscany from 1609 until his death in 1621. He is best remembered as the patron of Galileo, Cosimo?s childhood tutor, whom the Grand Duke named court mathematician in 1610. It was in that year that Galileo published his Sidereus Nuncius, announcing the discovery of four moons of Jupiter. He named these moons the ?Medicean Stars? in honor of Cosimo and his brothers. ?The reign of Cosimo II (1590-1621), despite its brevity, was significant artistically, for he was a zealous collector of paintings in a style as yet unfamiliar to his subjects. The landscapes by Adam Elsheimer, which he imported, made a great impression on Italian artists, as did masterpieces by such Flemish artists as Gerrit van Honthorst, who specialized in candlelit nocturnal scenes. Cosimo also invited to his court such inventive artists as Jacques Callot an Filippo Napoletano.?(Knecht). Signed.
