Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Not applicable. 1st Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Angelica Kauffmann, R.A. Her life and her works by Lady Victoria Manners and Dr. G. C. Williamson Summary: Angelica Kauffmann, R.A.: Her Life and Her Works (1924), by Lady Victoria Manners and Dr. G. C. Williamson, is one of the classic early biographies of the celebrated Swiss-born Neoclassical painter Angelica Kauffmann (1741-1807), a founding member of the Royal Academy in London. The book was especially significant because it drew upon a previously untranslated manuscript written by Kauffmann herself, discovered in the Royal Academy archives, allowing the authors to clarify the attribution and chronology of many of her paintings. The book traces Kauffmann's remarkable career from her childhood in Switzerland, where she was trained by her father, the painter Johann Joseph Kauffmann. Gifted in both music and art, she ultimately chose painting and quickly established herself as one of Europe's most accomplished portraitists and history painters. The authors describe her travels through Italy, where she absorbed classical art and associated with leading intellectuals. Her move to London in 1766 marked the high point of her British career. There she became a favourite portrait painter among aristocratic patrons and was one of only two women admitted as founding members of the Royal Academy in 1768.

Hard Cover. Zustand: Very Good. Limited Edition. 1000 Copies. This is a very good hardcover copy in the original binding: brown paper-covered boards and cream cloth spine with black leather spine label, titled in gilt. Very clean inside and out. A few previous owner marks, one an interesting circular handstamp on the front pastedown identifying it as belonging to the De Forests at 640 Madison Avenue. Perhaps the family of Lockwood De Forest. His siblings were prominent in the art worlds of the late 19th and early 20th century. One became a trustee of the Metropolitan Museum, another was an art historian, and both lived in New York. The other mark is a neat but not legible handstamp, a name in script, that appears on the backs of several plates. Also a number on the spine which was covered with a tiny white square of paper. No other marks, and not an x-library copy, but a privately owned copy. Some expert conservation on the inner hinges, now virtually invisible. 79 illustrations in color and black & white. 12" high X 9" wide, 268 pages. A beautiful copy of this scarce classic. This book will be securely wrapped and packed in a sturdy box and shipped with tracking.…
