P. Lyser (eig. Baumeister) nach Jean Ignace Grandville. Etwas spätere Pappbände mit jeweils 2 goldgepr. Rückensch. und Linienvergoldung. Rümann, Illustr. Bücher 1311. Vgl. Rümann, Das illustrierte Buch 160. Sander 660. - Erste deutsche Ausgabe dieser Übertragung mit den geistreichen Illustrationen von Grandville nach der französischen Ausgabe von 1838. Eine konkurrierende Übersetzung von F. Kottenkamp erschien 1839 in Stuttgart. - Obwohl es nicht Grandvilles ureigenstes Gebiet war, Jugendbücher zu illustrieren, wie Rümann S. 160 bemerkt, scheinen die Illustrationen zu Gulliver besonders gelungen, zumal gerade hier der Text der skurrilen Phantasie des Künstlers besonders nahe kam. Nur so ist die Vielzahl der Vignetten für diesen Text zu erklären. Die Illustrationen sind exemplarisch für den großen Spielraum der illustrativen Phantasie Grandvilles. - Stellenweise etwas braunfleckig, gutes Exemplar. Sprache: deutsch.

Nur so ist die Vielzahl der Vignetten für diesen Text zu erklären. - Die Illustrationen zu diesem Buch zählen zum Hauptwerk Grandvilles. Sie "bringen den satirischen und oft grausamen Text Swifts voll zur Geltung. Durch seine Erfahrung als Karikaturist und durch seine unerschöpfliche Erfindungsgabe bietet Grandville eine selbständige Bilderlektüre neben dem Text" (L. Noesser in Bilderwelt). - Stellenweise etwas braunfleckig, schönes dekorativ gebundenes Exemplar. Sprache: französisch.

In her later life she changed became gentler, wiser, greater'.ESTC reference numberT51599.
