Item description from seller

In folio (cm 30,5 x 41 circa), carte (7), seguono 98 tavole incise all'acquaforte. Mancano l'antiporta illustrata e la tavola 62 relativa ad Enrico VI (parte II) con la morte del Cardinale Beaufort. Gore presenti su tutte le tavole, restauri dei margini con integrazione di strisce di carta su 3 fogli iniziali con l'indice delle tavole. LegaturaÂottocentesca non strettamente coevaÂcon angoli con piatti rivestiti in tela verde. Album illustrato con tavole incise che ritraggono scene delle principali opere shakespeariane. Non datato ma 1803 circa. Questo volume rappresenta il capitolo finale dell'impresa editoriale di John Boydell, durata decenni. Tra il 1786 e il 1804 John Boydell commissiono' ad importanti pittori inglesi la creazione di dipinti che ritraessero le scene principali delle opere di Shakespeare. Nel 1789 inauguro' quindi una galleria che espose queste opere. Successivamente Boydell chiese ad un gruppo di incisori di trarre delle incisioni dai dipinti e di adattarle ai fini della pubblicazione, operazione da finanziarsi mediante una campagna di abbonamenti. Furono pubblicati due grandi volumi con tavole di ampio formato di cui quest'opera, laÂBoydell's Graphic Illustrations, rappresenta una pubblicazione successiva a parte, con tavole di minore formato e in qualche caso con soggetti diversi.
