VIII, 327 (1), 4 pages. With a lot of illustrations und 2 folded plates. Illustrated original cloth binding. 19x13 cm * Dedication copy: handschrifltich - "Erinnerung an Gleeson White von Frau Gleeson White gestiftet L. 18. 8. 1900" ----- Joseph William Gleeson White (18511898), often known as Gleeson White, was an English writer on art. He was born in Christchurch, Dorset and educated at Christ Church School and afterward became a member of the Art Workers Guild. While living in Christchurch, he had briefly housed Richard Le Gallienne during the summer of 1888. He moved to New York City in 1890 where he conducted the Art Amateur (189192). He returned to England in 1893. He was the first serving editor of The Studio, founded by Charles Holme in 1893 (Lewis Hind had acted as editor for four months before the launch of the magazine). In 1895 Holme took over as editor himself, although Gleeson White continued to contribute for the rest of his life. He also edited during his last years the "Ex Libris Series"; the "Connoisseur Series"; the "Pageant"; and, with Edward F. Strange, Bell's "Cathedral Series."

Macbeth's 'Weed-burners in the Fens', and 'Joan Of Arc's Entry Into New Orleans' by Aubrey Beardsley (after C. Hentschel). The latter plate has apparently had a three inch closed tear at at some stage, but both plates have been rebacked onto durable linen, presumably by the library. Unobtrusive early 20th century library stamp for Nottingham Free Public Libraries recurring intermittently throughout. The volume was later accessioned by Sotheby's Educational Services, whose bookplate appears on the front pastedown. Pages 170-184 dampstained. Page 225/6 has torn corner with some loss, and page 227/8 has closed tear. Otherwise a tight, solid, and externally presentable copy of the first volume of this influential Art Nouveau journal, retaining both the seldom-seen unwieldy fold-out art plates.

( 1864-1929), a Barre, Vermont born son of a carpenter and house builder, who began his architectural career in central Massachusetts as trainee draughtsman at the Fitchburg Offices of Henry M. Francis. In 1887, he relocated to the Elmira, New York area, joining Architects Pierce and Dockstader, becoming a partner in 1891. Bickford and partner Joseph H. Pierce, went on to some fame: "For a period of at least three decades, 1890-1920, Joseph H. Pierce and Hiram H. Bickford were the foremost architects of the central-southern tier of New York State. In Elmira, a city with a half dozen firms, no others matched Pierce & Bickford's facility in handling the most up-to-date stylistic fashions. Their professional supremacy extended east to Cortland, north to Geneva and west to Allegany County. They were also a major influence in northern Pennsylvania and received large commissions throughout the rest of New York and in New Jersey." (Architects of Standing, Pierce and Bickford, Elmira, N.Y. 1890-1932 by Roger G. Reed) Bickford was elected President of the Central New York Chapter of the A.I.A. from 1918-1920. His notable works include stone stairs and walls at Watkins Glen, The Arnot Art Gallery, Corning Glass Works, Cortland County and Arnot-Ogden Hopitals, Elmira College Library, YMCA and Masonic Temple, as well as the Elmira Free Academy.
