Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FROM THE LIBRARY OF HENRY ROGERS BROUGHTON, LORD FAIRHAVEN. London: Longman & Co., 1851. Octavo (10" x 7", 255mm x 180mm) First edition. With 12 chromolithographed plates by E. L. Bateman. Bound in original blind-stamped calf, dentelles, gilt edges to text block. Directed by Owen Jon…es. Rebacked (by Brockman, with a report available on request). Each bird is illustrated with an accompanying poem on a related virtue. Lark/Cheerfulness, Dove/Peace, Swallow/Enterprize, Parrot/Luxury. Swan/Progress, Nightingale/Romance, Pheasant/Modern Sports, Falcon/ Ancient Sports, Woodpecker/Meditation, Eagle/Nobility, Peacock/Chivalry, Owl/The Past. Henry Rogers Broughton (19001973), second baron, was the brother of the first Baron Fairhaven (Urban Huttleston Rogers Broughton), a title created for their father, Urban Hanlon Broughton, who died before it could be bestowed. Their mother was the heiress of Henry H. Rogers, the stupendously wealthy oil magnate who became a senior executive of Standard Oil. Armed with their grandfather's fortune, the Broughtons were able to buy and to maintain Anglesey Abbey in Cambridgeshire. The second Baron Fairhaven amassed one of the great collections of natural history books and art (donated to the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge). The present volume was bought from the second part of his epochal sale (Sotheby's London, 29 November 2022, lot 257 (£1,386)). RARE; not in Anker, Nissen, Zimmer or other standard bibliographies.

First edition, a lovely example of what McLean terms the "illuminated" Victorian gift book, by a titan of design. This collection of verse on various species of bird by the little-known Mary Ann Bacon (fl. 1839-1870, d. 1875) is accompanied by spectacular chromolithography. Ruari McLean, Victorian Book Design and Colour Printing…, 1972. Quarto. Illustrated throughout with chromolithographs by Edward La Trobe Bateman. Original calf by Remnant & Edmonds blind-stamped with an elaborate design of feathers and stylized wings, the front board incorporating the title, the rear a peacock's tail, gilt inner dentelles, textured endpapers patterned with gilt feather design, edges gilt. Binding a little rubbed, shallow chips to some page edges. A very good copy.
