A very handsomely-bound and extremely well-presented set, with the early bookseller's ticket of Boysen in Hamburg, of particular interest as it is offered together with an earlier Mozart portrait, an oval stipple-engraving, printed in colours, by Chapman, for the Encyclopaedia Londinensis,1817, measuring approx. 23 x 18 cm. including margins, in a neat modern black gilt frame. We cannot ascertain with certainty which earlier portrait Chapman has followed, but it seems very likely to have been the Bosch medallion in Salzburg engraved as frontispiece to Jahn's Volume II. Below Chapman's oval portrait is a musical vignette with a lyre and a satyr's mask, and two bound music scores "Don Giovanni" and "La Clemenza di Tito" - an intriguing choice of works by which to commemorate the composer.
