Condición: Good. Oblong folio. Original waps stained and with tears.16pp. text and 6 plates.Darley's etchings were apparently printed as lithographs ito llustrate Washington Irving's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow," which centers on a tall, thin, Connecticut-born schoolmaster named Ichabod Crane, described by the author as an "odd mix…ture of small shrewdness and simple credulity." We find him teaching children of Dutch descent in a riverside hamlet near Tarrytown, New York. Since his meagre income is insufficient to satisfy his hearty appetite, Ichabod often visits the families of his pupils to exchange gossip and ghost stories, knowing he will be fed by the generous housewives. When he decides to woo Katrina Van Tassel, the beautiful daughter and heir of a prosperous farmer, Ichabod uses singing lessons as a cover for their meetings. This infuriates a rival suitor, the athletic and hot-headed Brom Van Brunt who determines to undermine Ichabod's plans. After attending a dance and feast hosted by the Van Tassels, Ichabod rides home at "the witching hour" and encounters a famous local spectre, the headless horseman-the author hints that this apparition is Brom in disguise. A terrifying pursuit along the riverside road ends by the church graveyard in Tarrytown where the horseman flings his "head" at Ichabod and knocks him to the ground. The next day, a broken saddle and smashed pumpkin are discovered, but the schoolmaster has disappeared.The set of prints was chosen as a supplement for subscriber members of the American Art-Union in 1849. The plates are:Plate 1: Ichabod Crane in his schoolroom at Sleepy Hollow, near Tarrytown, New York.Plate 2: Ichabod Crane visits a pupil's family and tells a frightening tale.Plate 3: Ichabod Crane woos Katrina Van Tassel at her family farm overlooking the Hudson River.Plate 4: Ichabod dances with Katrina at a reception held by her family.Plate 5: Icabod Crane encounters the headless horseman as he rides home at "the witching hour.".Plate 6: Ichabod Crane flees toward Tarrytown, purshed by the headless horseman.While Darley indicates that the prints are etchings, they were printed bySarony & Major (1845-1857) a lithography firm founded by Napoleon Sarony on Fulton Street in New York City. Born in Québec, Sarony worked as an illustrator for Currier & Ives before starting his own business with Henry Major in 1845. The company produced prints such as a set of views of Commodore Perry's expedition to Japan under the Sarony & Major name until 1857, when it merged with Joseph F. Knapp and the name was changed to Sarony, Major & Knapp. In 1867, Sarony left to establish his own photography studio, although the firm would continue producing lithographs into the 1870s. Sarony would later become one of the best-known celebrity portrait photographers in New York, photographing such notable figures as Oscar Wilde, Samuel Clemens and William T. Sherman.Physical Description:16 pages, 6 leaves of plates : illustrations ; 32 x 39 cmOCLC Number / Unique Identifier:2483010.
