Description
London: Richard Bentley & Son, New Burlington St, 1883. First Edition. 3 vols, 8vo (188 x 137mm), pp. [4], 323, [1]; [2], 320; [4], 321, [3]. Publisher’s dark blue cloth, spine lettered in silver, gray floral endpapers. Each volume printed throughout in dark blue ink. Slightly cocked, small ownership signature in pencil on the half-titles ("G. Newman"), and very light scattered foxing at the foredges, some offsetting to the floral endpapers, rubbing to the corners and spine tips, else a bright, near fine set. Hector was a popular Victorian novelist, especially in the United States, who published over 40 novels after the death of her husband in 1875. Her plots typically revolved around a young girl torn between money, family, and love - often complicated by a legacy and a benevolent providence. A scarce, well-preserved set. OCLC locates only eight copies. Sadleir 34. Centered on Stasie Verner, a young heiress, The Executor turns on the pressures that attend money, dependence, and marriage in late-Victorian society. As competing claims gather around her, Dr. Brooke gradually uncovers a darker design beneath the novel's domestic surface, giving the story the character of both an inheritance drama and a quiet work of suspense.

Bogotá: Banco de la República, 2021. b/w and color plates, plans, ports., bios., pict. color wrps. This exhibition originates in order to rethink the Banco de la República collection and find different ways of interpreting it. This rereading was born from the dialogue between three curators: Estrella de Diego, Sigrid Castañeda and Julien Petit who question concepts such as: conquests (in plural), chorography and thresholds. These last fields are the three thematic axes of the exhibition, with which it is possible to analyze more than 150 works by 60 Colombian artists: Alejandro Obregón, Miguel Angel Rojas, Liliana Angulo, Fernando Arias, Miguel Sopó, Wilson Diaz, Luis Caballero, Beatriz Gonzalez, etc. . CONTENTS: Un viaje de ida y vuelta -- Ires & Venires -- Consquistas -- Corografias -- Umbrales -- English version. ENGLISH AND SPANISH TEXT.
