Eighteenth Century Gouache French Fan Design of a Bucolic Scene of Picnickers, with Italianate farmhouses Dotting the Background

Eighteenth Century Gouache French Fan Design of a Bucolic Scene of Picnickers, with Italianate farmhouses Dotting the Background

NA. Very Good. N.d., mid-18th Century almost certainly, a hand-colored design on thin paper which was meant to have been folded and attached to the spokes of a fan but wasn't. The paper is a half-circle, with the length 54 cm, the height, 29 cm. The image has water and bush in the foreground. With a blue-ish palette that brings to mind Willow-ware and Spode. The picture would take up most of the fan. Light soiling and some minor creasing. Easily attractively mounted and matted.

Thoughts and Stories on Tobacco, For American Lads; or Uncle Toby's Anti-Tobacco Advice to His Nephew Billy Bruce. (Fourth Thousand)(1852)

by Uncle Toby; John Tuck; Simeon Toby; George Trask; Edward Livermore

1852 softcover pamphlet discussing the downside of tobacco. When I got this the cover was off. Volume has had some restoration: cover is backed with matching paper and is reattached. Paper and binding are fragile but overall readable with a gentle touch. Primary defect is the corner off the front page. Interior has foxing and stains but no vandalism. I think the author comes out of the same group that published Solomon Spittle (which I also have listed). 1852 is the first year this was published but this... Read more about this item
