8vo, xvi, 152 pp. 7 stipple engraved colour plates with gilt borders, marbled endpapers, later bookplate and inscription. Contemporary mottled calf with a gilt border, rebacked retaining most of the original backstrip. An unusual example of 18th century colour printing, the plates being stipple engravings using four colours, originally made for Sivrac's Italian translation the year before with gilt borders added that obscure the imprints. "That such a book should be provided with some color-printed plates testifies that the intaglio color print had become reasonably common and cheap by the last decade of the eighteenth century. While this book was no doubt intended for a gentleman or lady reader, a book with colour plates no longer needed to be a folio show-piece" (Friedman, Color Printing in England, no. 28). Hazen p. 65. Summers p. 264. N° de réf. du vendeur 46428

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. BODONI EDITION OF HORACE WALPOLE S GOTHIC MASTERPIECE - Parma. Printed by Bodoni, for J. Edwards, bookseller of London. 1791. Sixth edition. 4to (17 x 25cm) [6], XXXII, 245, [1]pp., with half-title, 2 engraved frontispieces (Hazen: states A & B), additional initial & final blanks, second issue (cancel title-page), a fully-margined copy (page dimensions 16.4x 24.1cm) the thick, laid paper watermarked with a fleur-de-lys with initials F.P., first few leaves with some negligible foxing, very good in contemporary red morocco (possibly by Staggemeier & Welcher?), boards with gilt Greek key roll border, flat spine gilt in compartments to a geometric design incorporating Greek key roll, black morocco labels titled in gilt, marbled endpapers, all edges gilt, bookplate of Ellen James . Bound in contemporary English red morocco, gilt-tooled in the neoclassical style, this is a superior example of one of 300 copies of The castle of Otranto printed in Parma in 1791 by the celebrated Italian printer Giambattista Bodoni (1740-1813) for the London bookseller James Edwards (1756-1816). First printed in 1764, this seminal work by Horace Walpole (1717-1797) is considered the first Gothic novel. The printing of this edition in Italy evokes the fictional Italianate origins of the work as presented by Walpole: translated by William Marshal, gent. from the original Italian of Onuphrio Muralto, canon of the church of St. Nicholas at Otranto. This copy includes two examples of the engraved frontispiece in different states, engraved by Inigo Barlow after a 1785 drawing (BM: 1927,0712.8) by Willey Reveley (d.1799) depicting the real Castle of Otranto in Puglia. Some copies are on occasion mistakenly described as large paper , however no large paper copies were printed: comparing with the page dimensions listed in Hazen this is as large a cut copy as is possible. It is thought that Edwards the publisher arranged the binding of this and other similar morocco-bound copies. The bookplate Ellen James most probably is that of Ellen King James (1823-1849), aunt of novelist Henry James (1843- 1916). Hazen, Walpole, 17, see: pp.56-63 (the watermark F.P. under fleur-de-lys not noted); Summers p.252; Brooks 420; Rothschild 2492. N° de réf. du vendeur 33.033
