The top and lower edges of the spine are missing, otherwise a clean, very good copy with slight wear & slight soiling to spine, covers & corners. ; "Notes and Memoranda Respecting the Liber Studiorum of J. M. W. Turner, R. A," written and collected by the late John Pye, is an essential scholarly work that delves into the artistic nuances and historical significance of Turner’s Liber Studiorum. This compilation, based on the notes of John Pye, an esteemed engraver, offers a detailed analysis of Turner's collection of prints, intended to educate both artists and connoisseurs in the principles of landscape painting. Pye’s observations provide insights into Turner’s techniques, thematic choices, and the innovative use of light and shade that characterizes the Liber Studiorum. The book also discusses the broader context of Turner’s work, including his influence on the Romantic movement and his enduring legacy in British art. Pye’s meticulous collection of memoranda not only serves as a valuable resource for art historians and enthusiasts but also enriches the understanding of Turner’s creative vision and his profound impact on the art of landscape painting. Through this work, readers gain a deeper appreciation of Turner’s artistic mastery and his philosophical approach to the natural world. ; Hardback; 21.7 x 13.7 cms; 100 pages.

Large folio. 3/4 red morocco and red roan boards, repaired. 59 x 45 cm.[62] p. [29] pl.; 606 mm. Some foxing. Tissue guards. OCLC Number: 1105189 Each plate gives the name of the source-artist and is signed by its engraver. The engravers were H. Le Keux, George T. Doo, W. Bromley, J.H. Watt, E. Goodall, John Pye, William Miller, W. Humphrys, John Burnet, J. Stewart, W. Greatbatch, John H. Robinson, R. Golding, W. Finden and J. Le Keux. Each plate carries the publisher's imprint of John Pye, and the name of the printer, McQueen. The work is dedicated to King William IV by John Burnet, George Cooke, George T. Doo, William Finden, Edward Goodall, John Le Keux, Henry Le Keux, John Pye and John H. Robinson. The title page and plate [10] carry the date of 1840, but all other plates carry an earlier date - 1830 March 1 (nos. 5, 17, 24, 26, 28); 1832 March (1, 9, 11); 1837 March (1) (2, 14, 19, 20, 22, 29); 1834 Sep. 1 (6, 15, 16); 1836 July (1) (12, 13, 21, 25); 1837 July (3, 8, 18, 27); 1839 Aug. (4, 23); 1839 Nov. (7). The idea of publishing a series of engravings after paintings in the National Gallery (which had opened to the public in 1824) originated with John Pye, and was subsidised by John Sheepshanks. Seven instalments appeared by 1840. Pye was a leading advocate of the Royal Academy's opening full Membership to engravers. He had petitioned the Prince Regent for this in 1812; in 1826 he and other leading engravers vowed never to apply for Associateship; in 1836 and 1859 he published pamphlets attacking the Academy. Each plate is accompanied by one leaf of printed explanatory text (in English on the recto, in French on the verso); and each is captioned. They show: [1]'A view of Venice' by Canaletto; [2]'Christ appearing to St. Peter' by Ann. Carracci; [3] 'Silenus' by Ann. Carracci; [4] 'Susanna and the elders' by Lud. Carracci; [5] 'An Italian sea-port' by Claude; [6] 'The marriage-festival of Isaac and Rebecca' by Claude; [7] 'The embarkation of St. Ursula' by Claude; [8] 'A pastoral landscape' by Claude; [9] 'The Annunciation' (in text, ' .. appearance of the angel to Hagar') by Claude; [10] 'The Holy Family' by Correggio; [11] 'Evening' by A.
