Description
London: F.V. White & Co, 1886. First Edition. 3 vols. A novel of propinquity, suggesting that short memory is a poor substitute for clear conscience. Original cloth. Near fine, with only the lightest rubbing to the corners and spine ends, beautiful beyond good fortune and take a look at the numbers. A great rarity, not buyable elsewhere, in any condition, let alone like this. RBH records no set at auction, Wolff didn't have it, and there are only 5 institutional libraries with a copy (Cornell, British Library, Cambridge, Oxford and The National Library of Scotland).

Frontis. & 33 plates. 78 pp. Large 4to, orig. crimson half-morocco & cloth, orig. printed dust jacket (a few inoffensive tears). London: Chiswick Press, 1950. The specially bound copy for the author of this privately printed catalogue. Merton (1888-1969), was a scientist specializing in spectroscopic research and was knighted in 1944 for his work during World War II. Merton’s small but sophisticated collection focused on early pictures from between 1450 and 1520. The catalogue describes 32 paintings and drawings, amongst which are featured van der Weyden’s Portrait of Guillaume de Fillastre (Courtauld Institute), Botticelli’s Portrait of Giovanni di Pierfrancesco de’ Medici (on loan at the National Gallery of Art, Washington), and works by other major artists of the period. A lengthy description accompanies each work, as well as dimensions, references, and notes on provenance. Very fine copy.
