The second paragraph reveals that the bearer of the letter is himself an engraver: 'I understand that he applied to you for the engraving of one of your Portrait Plates. I know he is desirous of having an opportunity of exerting his abilities in the finishing of a Plate & shouldyou be inclined to give him a trial I hope no motive relative to me will prevent it'.…

Joints and extremities somewhat worn, and with short cracks at head and/or tail of a couple volumes, boards with some minor abrasions and other small blemishes, but all volumes completely solid, and the set retaining its considerable antique appeal. Just a couple of text leaves in volume II with moderate foxing, some of the card mounts with a little soiling, consistent offsetting from plates (but onto guards, so no harm done); isolated trivial imperfections, but THE CONTENTS IN FINE CONDITION, very clean and bright, the plates beautifully preserved and with unusually rich color. This immense, handsomely bound set consists of two art catalogues celebrating the finest Old Master paintings in British collections; included is the rare deluxe hand-colored copy of the catalogue raisonné of the Marquess of Stafford's collection--one of the most extravagant and expensive such catalogues produced to that time. The Stafford Gallery, as it was then known, opened in 1806 (thus predating the National Gallery by almost 20 years) at the London home of the Marquess and Marchioness of Stafford. It housed an extraordinary art collection that included works by Poussin, Lorraine, Titian, Veronese, Tintoretto, Van Dyck, Rembrandt, Hobbema, Turner, Gainsborough, and many other notable artists. Displaying more than 200 paintings across 12 sumptuously decorated rooms, the Marquess' collection was one of the most significant of its day and, perhaps most importantly, one of the few allowing public viewership. Ottley's ambitious catalogue was originally offered in three formats: uncolored quarto prints for £35.14s. (the version most frequently encountered on the market), Large Paper india proofs for £71.8s., and Large Paper Copies with colored and mounted plates for an astonishing £171.14s.--plus an additional £40 for the binding (in total about £12,000 in today's money). It is no wonder that Hermann calls it "probably the most luxurious [catalogue] to have appeared in England by 1818." The fifth volume in this set contains a separately published work composed of 25 engravings that reproduce "the most admired productions of the Old Masters" in Britain, including examples by Giotto, Parmigianino, Poussin, Raphael, and Rubens. Hardie says that these plates "executed when the art of stipple was in its decadence, are triumphs of colour-printing," and Tooley calls the work "an exceedingly fine example of colored stipple engraving." As with the previous work, the engravings here were executed by Peltro William Tomkins (1759-1840), who studied with Bartolozzi and taught drawing to the daughters of George III. DNB notes that he and his brother "financed ambitious works, notably an illustrated edition of James Thomson's 'Seasons' (1797) . . . arguably the most magnificent book to be illustrated with stipple engravings." The descriptions are by Henry Tresham, then professor of painting at the Royal Academy, and Ottley (1771-1836), keeper of prints for the British Museum, and considered to be the greatest authority of his time on Italian Renaissance art. Copies of the hand-colored deluxe issue of the first work are scarce at auction: ABPC finds just two sets this century, selling for hammer prices of £6,000 ($9,334) in 2002 and £4,400 ($7,251) in 2009. To find a deluxe copy of the first work bound together with the second, all in elegant contemporary bindings and in fine condition is extremely rare--we were able to locate just one comparable set on RBH, which sold at Sotheby's in 1981 for £3,190 all in (approximately equivalent to $18,200 today).
