Cloth. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. The Diary of Baron Waldstein. Sunned spine to D/J. Here, astonishingly, after almost four hundred years, is a hitherto unpublished eye-witness account of Elizabethan England. Describing a visit in the summer of 1600, it is part of the Latin diary which young Baron Waldstein, from Moravia, kept during his grand tour of Europe. The high point of Waldstein's visit was an interview with Queen Elizabeth herself, who, 'glittering with the glory of majesty and adorned with jewellery and precious gems, entered into the view of the whole assembly and stretched her arms out wide as it to embrace everyone present'. It needed considerable charm and address (as well as his noble birth) to make so obviously good an impression upon her that 'she promised then and there that all the doors of her kingdom should be open to me'. The Diary, now in the Vatican Library, has been translated by G. W. Goos, who also provides full notes: he has identified the people mentioned, and traced many of the works of art, a surprising number of which still survive. The illustrations also include contemporary views of the buildings and towns that Waldstein visited. With 48 illustrations, 4 in colour and a map. 184 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
