First and only edition of a memorial to the costume and stage designer François Joseph Pfeiffer Jr. (1778-1835), with a biographical sketch by Gerrit van Enst Koning (1794-1853), lithographic portrait, lists of his work and coloured lithographs of his stage designs, with a poem facing the portrait and each of the stage designs, all written for the present book by the famous Dutch author and poet Jacob van Lennep (1802-1868). Pfeiffer was best known for his Romantic stage designs for the Amsterdam Schouwburg (city theatre). From 1820 to 1835 he created complete decors for many different plays, but none has survived. The lithographs in the present book therefore form an essential primary source for the history of Dutch theatre. Also included is a list of the most important decorations Pfeiffer made for various theatres. A good copy, with a few plates lightly browned, the leaf on which the portrait is mounted foxed, and a few occasional minor stains. Binding slightly faded. An important primary source for the history of Dutch stage design, and a feast for the eye, with its beautiful hand-coloured stage designs.l NCC (5 copies); Thieme & Becker XXVI, p. 528; Waller, p. 253.
