Añadir al carritoFirst printing of beautiful hand-coloured aquatint views of Argentina, all conceived and drawn from life by Emeric Essex Vidal in the years 1816 to 1818, accompanied by descriptions of the scenery, costumes and habits of the peoples and regions depicted. The plates were executed by various engravers between May and October 1820 and first issued in 6 monthly parts. 750 copies, including the present, were issued in Elephant 4to format. There was also an issue in Atlas folio and apparently a reprint in large and small 4to, still dated 1820, not normally distinguished in the literature from the present first printing (Palau and Sabin describe the work as a folio, but the Elephant 4to is often described as a folio). Tooley notes "the importance of its subject" and describes this publication as "the only notable colour plate book in English dealing with the Argentine". With the red leather Beeleigh Abbey armorial bookplate of William Alfred Foyle (1885-1963). With two stitching holes from the previous binding in the margins. With old folds in some of the folding plates and occasional minor browning, but still in very good condition and largely untrimmed, with most deckles intact. With a tiny tear in the morocco of one corner but binding otherwise fine. First printing of beautiful views of life in Argentina in the period 1816 to 1818.l Abbey, Travel 698; Palau 363371; Sabin 99460; Tooley 495. 20th-century gold-tooled, black goatskin morocco, sewn on 4 recessed cords but with 5 false bands on the spine, each board with 2 frames of fillets, the inner one with 4 fleur-de-lis cornerpieces, marbled endpapers. With 24 unnumbered hand-coloured aquatint plates, including 4 folding (plate size: 30 x 25 & 32.5 x 50.5 cm; image size mostly: 26 x 20 & 26.5 x 47.5 cm), all drawn by Vidal and executed by G. Maile, T. Sutherland, G. Bluck and D. Havell. Pages: XXVIII, 115 pp.

Añadir al carritoFirst edition, a desirable copy with pre-publication watermarks dated 1818, of the "the only notable colour plate book in English dealing with the Argentine" (Tooley). The hand-painted aquatints offer some of the finest depictions of early 19th-century life, customs, and architecture in the Río de la Plata region. The English sailor Vidal (1791-1861) joined the Royal Navy in 1808, serving as a purser for the next five decades. The plates in his book were based on drawings he made when he visited South America with HMS Hyacinth in 1816-8, as secretary to the admiral on the South American Station. They constitute "the main source of pictorial information about early Argentina" (Speake, p. 39) and "possess a subtle charm of their own, apart from their historical and geographical value" (Hardie). Some of the scenes included are "Monte Video", "Church of San Domingo", "Beggar on Horseback", "Pampa Indians", "General View of Buenos Ayres, from the Plaza de Toros", "Balling Ostriches", "Guachos of Tucman", and "A Horse Race". Vidal depicts the inhabitants of the Pampas and Rio de la Plata Regions, outdoor markets and plazas, and buildings. "Through E. Vidal's watercolours. you get a sense of the city house facades (Vidal never painted any interiors), made not of rare stone but of baked adobe bricks called chorizos - sausages" (Wilson, p. 13). The work was first published in six monthly parts between May and October 1820. The early watermarks here suggest that this volume was possibly bound from the parts rather than from later book-form issues. Ackermann announced 750 small paper and 50 large paper copies. A comparison with the Abbey copy indicates that this example is from the smaller format. Abbey Travel 698; Martin Hardie p. 107; Sabin 99460; Tooley 495. Jennifer Speake, ed., Literature of Travel and Exploration, An Encyclopedia, 2014; Jason Wilson, Buenos Aires: A Cultural and Literary Companion, 1999. Large quarto (325 x 250 mm). With 24 hand-coloured aquatint plates (1 double-page, 3 folding). Twentieth-century blue morocco to style, spine with raised bands, gilt lettering and decoration in compartments, covers bordered with blind and gilt frames, board edges and turn-ins elaborately gilt, grey endpapers, edges gilt. Light damp staining to margins of 3 folding plates, tape repair on verso of "Buenos Ayres" plate, offsetting to contents, faintly toned but clean. A very good copy.

"In 1820 began a series of books dealing with travel and scenery. The first was Picturesque Illustrations of Buenos Ayres and Monte Video, with descriptions of scenery, customs, and manners by E.E. Vidal. The book was issued in six monthly parts, seven hundred and fifty copies on elephant paper, and fifty on atlasThe twenty-four aquatints, all after drawings by Vidal, four of them being large folded plates, are engraved by G. Maile, J. Bluck, T. Sutherland, and D. Havell[and] possess a subtle charm of their own apart from their historical and geographical value" (Martin Hardie). "Not an uncommon book, but owing to the importance of its subject and the fact of its being the only notable colour plate book in English dealing with the Argentine, it always commands a high price" (Tooley). Emeric Essex Vidal (ca. 1788-1861), born into a naval family, joined the Navy in 1808 and spent much of his career as a purser. He was stationed in 1820-1821 at St. Helena as secretary to Admiral Lambert on H.M.S. Vigo. Vidal was a distinguished painter and many of his fine drawings (like those of his brother Alexander) were adapted for the engraved vignettes on early issues of certain British Admiralty charts. Abbey describes only a red cloth binding on his large paper copy. The green cloth of the present copy, with slightly different tooling on the spine (without the phrase "24 plates coloured"), is obviously a variant. Abbey, Travel, 698. Colas 3000. Hiler, p. 878.
