1850 STORIA dell' ARTE col mezzo dei Monumenti, edizione prima italiana, con aggiunte, 6 vols. in 4, royal folio, with 325 plates re-engraved, and the text improved, hf. calf, UNCUT, £5. 15s Milano, 1824-25

The division of this grand work is into three parts: Architecture. 73 plates; II. Sculpture, 51 plates; III. Painting, 204 plates. To Antiquaries and lovers of the Fine Arts, this work is indispensable; it connects the works of Winckelman and Cicognara, and forms with them a most interesting series.

"This fine work was the first in which the idea of exhibiting the Progress of Art, by a series of its noblest monuments, was perfectly carried out. By a series of accurate Engravings from celebrated Monuments, we trace the transitions of Art from the classic period to our own times. Sculpture Painting, the Art of Illumination, and the Art of Engraving on Wood, on Gems, and on Medals, are similarly represented.

"It is a work that has long been sought and prized by all who could afford the high price at which only it was to be procured. This English Edition will now be within the reach of all, and it is anticipated that no Library, Architect, Painter, Sculptor, or any one connected with the Fine Arts, will be longer without such a work." AMMAN (Jost) see post "Woodcuts."

Bedford, (pub. at £19. 19s) gilt cloth, £7. 7s 1857-8

As originally intended, this work is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EVER PRODUCED in colours. The series of one hundred plates has been produced in the highest style of chromo lithography, with all the advantages of the present advanced state of the art. As the selection was made from the most choice and prominent subjects of the Art Treasures' Exhibition, it follows that, whilst the collection consisted of the chef-d'œuvres of the art of the entire kingdom, this work contains none but the most precious gems that could be gathered therefrom. Only 750 copies were printed, and the stones have been destroyed, so no more can be produced.
