Gerard David: Purity of Vision in an Age of Transition

Metropolitan Museum of Art, 1998. Hardcover. Pp: 348. Ainsworth (Senior Conservation Research Fellow at the Metropolitan Museum of Art) examines the work of the great Bruges painter Gerard David (ca. 1455-1523), focusing on the motivating forces behind the startling changes in his work caused by shifting devotional practices, changing art markets, the accommodation of foreign art clients, and the evolving secular nature of painting demanded by the newly wealthy middle class in the early years of the 16th century. Illustrations, some 343 in all, include abundant comparative material, such as drawings and workshop copies, as well as 69 superb color reproductions. ISBN: 9780870998775. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Beatrice Tyldesley

London , Tinsley Brothers, 1878. First edition. Cloth. A scarce complete edition of Beatrice Tyldesley, one of William Harrison Ainsworth's last novels. First edition. Three volumes bound in one. William Harrison Ainsworth (1805 - 1882) was an English historical novelist. Ainsworth briefly tried the publishing business, but soon gave it up and devoted himself to journalism and literature. His first success as a writer came with Rookwood in 1834, which features Dick Turpin as its leading character. A stream of thirty-nine novels followed, the last of which appeared in 1881. His Lancashire novels cover altogether 400 years and include The Lancashire Witches, 1848, Mervyn Clitheroe, 1857, and The Leaguer of Lathom. Jack Sheppard, Guy Fawkes, 1841, Old St Paul's, 1841, Windsor Castle, 1843, and The Lancashire Witches are regarded as his most successful novels. He was very popular in his lifetime and his novels sold in large numbers. Rebound in cloth. Externally, sound but with slight wear to extremities, slight rubbing and the occasional mark to boards. Internally, generally firmly bound although slightly strained in places. Bright and generally clean throughout with only the very odd spot and handling mark and slight foxing to first and last pages.
