Half-leather bound. Zustand: Sehr gut. vii, 148 p. First and only edition; an important and rare work. Best known as the author of the Adventures of Baron Munchausen, in 1779, "Raspe, supported by a number of influential friends, discovered the manuscript De arte pingendi by the medieval German monk Theophilus Presbyter, which is kept in the University Library of Cambridge, and was a significant discovery for the history of oil painting. With the help of this manuscript, he was able to confirm the theory that oil painting had been invented before the Flemish painters and (supposed) brothers Hubert and Jan van Eyck. The English writer and art collector Horace Walpole had already expressed this view in 1762 and now saw his opinion confirmed by the discovery of the German exile. A tailor had had Raspe arrested because of his debts. Walpole paid a release bond and also helped financially so that Raspe could have his Critical Essay on the Origins of Oil Painting printed in 1781" (transl. from wikipedia). Only few leaves mildly foxed, otherwise very good. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 452.

Hamburgh, Printed for B. G. Hoffmann, 1790. Small 8vo. Contemporary German half-calf over marbled boards, spine ornamented in gilt and with raised bands; pp. xxiv, 188, engraved frontispiece and six engraved plates; binding a little rubbed, lettering-piece with loss; the occasional brown spot here and there, sectional title with tiny marginal repair; a good copy af a great rarity; German ownership inscription 'Eugen Heidenreich', dated 1849, to front fly-leaf. An early and beautifully illustrated edition of the complete Münchhausen imaginary voyages. Although Raspe was German, he wrote the miraculous adventures in English, while engaged in mining activities in Cornwall. The first edition had appeared in Oxford in 1786 (a chapbook of 49 pages) and subsequent editions saw the corpus increasing and revised. All early editions are very rare. The editor of this Hamburg edition remarks that 'the first edition contained no more than was written by Baron Münchhausen, and includes chapters 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 only. All the other chapters are the production of another pen, written in the Baron's manner' (Preface). The character of Münchhausen is loosely based on a real baron, Hieronymus Karl Friedrich, Freiherr von Münchhausen, who fought for the Russian Empire in the Russo-Turkish War of 1735â"1739. Upon his return, he was famous for his outrageously elaborate tales surrounding his military career, on which Raspe based his adventures, which include riding on a cannonball, fighting a forty-foot crocodile, and travelling to the Moon. The real Baron was, understandably, quite put out by this unwanted fame, and threatened legal proceedings against the book's publisher. Perhaps fearing a libel suit, Raspe never acknowledged his authorship of the work, which was only established posthumously.
