First trade edition. Quarto (10 13/16 x 8 7/16 inches; 275 x 214 mm.). [2, blank], x, 204 pp. Color frontispiece and fifteen color plates, with descriptive tissue guards. Seventy-four black and white illustrations in the text. Publishers red cloth over boards pictorially stamped and lettered in gilt on front cover and spine. Gray and white pictorial endpapers. Top edge gilt, others stained red. Gilt on spine dull, some light wear to extremities, neat ink inscription dated 1917 on front free endpaper, and another ink inscription on front blank leaf. A good copy of an uncommon book. Rene Bull's vibrant illustrations perfectly capture the intense drama of love and jealousy in Prosper Mérimée's tale which was the basis for Georges Bizet's opera of the same title. René Bull (d. 1942) "was born in Ireland and went to Paris to study engineering, but left this for art work in London, 1892. After working for various magazines, he was appointed â special' for Black and White, 1896, attending the Armenian massacres and the Graeco-Turkish War as artist.He served in the First World War in RNVR, 1916, and RAF, 1917. Bull was one of the most versatile specials because his stature as an artist was above average. Not only an accurate reporter, he was a talented comic draughtsman and a brilliant illustrator of fairy stories" (Houfe, The Dictionary of 19th Century British Book Illustrators, p. 81). Works illustrated by Bull include: La Fontaine's Fables (1905), Uncle Remus, by Joel Chandler Harris (1906), The Arabian Nights (1912), The Russian Ballet by A.E. Johnson (1913), Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám (1913), Carmen, by Prosper Mérimée (1916), and Travels into Several Remote Nations of the World, by Jonathan Swift (1928).

First Thus. First edition with illustrations by Harry Rowntree and René Bull. Thin large quarto (12 1/8 x 9 5/8 inches; 308 x 243 mm.). Original gray linen over boards, front cover lettered in orange and brown. A Fine copy. Original textured tan paper dust- jacket, front panel lettered in black and with an illustration from the book Bred en bawn in a brier-patch, Brer Fox (facing page 20) pasted-on. Jacket price-clipped, otherwise near fine. Collating 110, [1], [1 blank] with twelve magnificent full color plates by Harry Rowntree and eighty-four delightful pen-and-ink drawings in the text by René Bull. First published in 1881, Uncle Remus was a landmark collection of African American fables and oral tradition that was adapted and edited by Joel Chandler Harris. The work includes 185 tales, which are woven together through the character of Uncle Remus, an older formerly enslaved man who tells the stories to a group of children. The stories were actually written in eye dialect and many of them center around the character of Br'er (Brother) Rabbit, a kind of clever trickster. Read widely, the book was extremely popular as many people had not been exposed to the tales, lifestyles, and ways of speaking that the book depicted. Despite its acclaim, the book has become controversial, particularly for its portrayal of Uncle Remus. Illustrator Harry Rountree (1878-1950) was a prolific illustrator working in England around the turn of the twentieth century. He came to London in 1901 from New Zealand, when he was 23 years old. Determined to make his mark on the then- flourishing magazine and book market, he struggled, studied and sold the occasional drawing. However, when the editor of Little Folks magazine gave him a commission to illustrate a story with an animal, he found his feet and suddenly he became quite successful. His collaborator René Bull (1872-1942) was born in Dublin to a French mother and an English father and contributed sketches and political cartoons to various publications.

292 x 222 mm. (11 1/2 x 9"). 3 p.l., [75] leaves.Translated by Edward FitzGerald (text of the 1859 first version). Publisher's very handsome stiff vellum, upper cover with elaborate gilt and blue decoration designed by René Bull, smooth spine with stylized gilt lettering, original blue silk ties, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. Excellent later (just faintly soiled) custom-made linen clamshell box with snap clasp. Each page with frame or vignette printed in blue, 19 color vignettes mounted in the text, and 10 COLOR PLATES tipped onto heavy stock, each with lettered tissue guard, all by René Bull. Paas 2629. â Two slightly darkened areas, but the vellum binding very bright and clean; not infrequent but always quite minor foxing, otherwise especially pleasing condition inside and out. This handsomely printed, elegantly bound, and lavishly illustrated edition of FitzGerald's beloved quatrains is redolent of the opulence of the Persian empire. Each of the 75 verses is printed on a separate leaf of thick, handmade paper decorated with a woodcut frame or vignette printed in blue, or with a color illustration of a scene from the poem. The richly colored plates are filled with animation and much exotic detail of life in the sultan's court. Son of an English father and a French Mother, illustrator René Bull (1872-1942) travelled to India and Africa, covering British imperial campaigns as an artist and photographer for an illustrated newspaper. After being wounded in the Boer War, he returned to England and settled into a more peaceful career illustrating books. His travels in the East inform his illustrations here; his scenery and costumes have the kind of realism seen in the work of French Orientalists who were based in North Africa and Arabia. ONE OF 250 COPIES SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR (this copy unnumbered).
