Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Second Edition. Hardback. HOLKHAM BIBLE PICTURE BOOK. With Introduction and Commentary. 34.5 by 25.5cm. Folio, Original binding of half red niger morocco, the covers with a vertical central vellum panel blocked in blind, the spine lettered in gilt, plain end leaves, uncut edges.). Blind stamped large church image on cover and flying bird on rear.Reproductions of the 84 folios, 8 of them in colour and the remaining 76 in monochrome, with introduction and commentary consisting of 160 pages of text together with a glossary of obsolete French terms and a complete index. An old catalogue entry reads: ' It is not often that a manuscript of the importance and rarity of the Holkham Bible Picture Book can be made available to the general public in such complete and luxurious form as this edition published by the Dropmore Press. The original manuscript, which has survived for six centuries, until recently formed part of the famous collection of manuscripts at Holkham Hall, Norfolk, the seat of the Earl of Leicester. The manuscript is now national property and is at the British Museum. Only the willing co-operation of the Earl of Leicester and, more recently, that of the British Museum authorities, made it possible for this historic document to be reproduced in its entirety in book form. Dr. Hassall, after many years of patient research and enquiry, has written a masterly analysis of the manuscript, consisting of an introduction covering its early history, together with a page-by-page commentary on the plates, with copious footnotes and references. The manuscript consists of 84 illustrated parchment folios, each measuring 11 by 8 ins., all of which have been reproduced to the same scale by a special process developed by the Oxford University Press.' This book is very heavy, and delivery costs may be a consideration especially outside Britain. About fine.Very faint tanning to vellum. Bookplate of Richard Barber of the Boydell Press.

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. [ix], 191, [2] pp. + 42 leaves of plates; folio, half red niger morocco with fore-edge of the same morocco, parchment sides; five raised bands, gilt title on spine, textblock fore-edges uncut. The plates (several in color) were printed at the University Press, Oxford. A finely printed facsimile of a fourteenth-century manuscript from the collections of the Earl of Leicester. The original work was not intended to be an illustrated Bible, but rather deals with the overarching theme of the three advents of God: at the Creation, at the Incarnation, and at the Doom. "It is a pictorial representation of the Creation and Fall and the need of a Redemption. Then comes the story of Christ, leading up to the Passion, Resurrection and Ascension, interspersed with apocryphal incidents. Finally come the Signs of the End of the World and the Last Judgement" (from the Introduction). A very good/near fine copy, with just a touch of rubbing at the tips and a little fading to the spine; pages clean and bright. Nº de ref. del artículo: 2229
