Hard cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Rossetti and His Circle is a book of twenty-three caricatures by English caricaturist, essayist and parodist Max Beerbohm. Published in 1922 by William Heinemann, the drawings were Beerbohm's humorous imaginings concerning the life of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and his fellow Pre-Raphaelites, the period, as he put it, "just before oneself." The book is now considered one of Beerbohm's masterpieces. Sir Henry Maximilian Beerbohm (24 August 1872 - 20 May 1956) was an English essayist, parodist and caricaturist under the signature Max. He first became known in the 1890s as a dandy and a humourist. He was the drama critic for the Saturday Review from 1898 until 1910, when he relocated to Rapallo, Italy. In his later years he was popular for his occasional radio broadcasts. Among his best-known works is his only novel, Zuleika Dobson, published in 1911. His caricatures, drawn usually in pen or pencil with muted watercolour tinting, are in many public collections.…

Although most of Beerbohm's caricatures were of his contemporaries, some of his best work relates to the years just before his own. For him the shining light of the period was the painter and poet Dante Gabriel Rossetti, and he delighted in drawing Rossetti together with the other PreRaphaelites and the eccentric artists, writers, models, and mistresses that surrounded him: Holman Hunt, J. E. Millais, Ford Madox Brown, Ruskin, William Morris, Burne~Jones, Swinburne, Meredith, Tennyson, Browning, Whistler, Carlyle, Elizabeth Siddal, Fanny Cornforth, and others. Max's twenty~three watercolor drawings on these subjects, published in 1922, remain his most famous caricatures. When the book first appeared, The Times commented: "Each drawing is worth a whole volume of sermons on ideals in art and life,"and the New York Times announced, "Here is the final criticism of the Pre~Raphaelite Brotherhood." According to one of Rossetti's nieces, "No living person within the PreRaphaelite circle has given so accurate a picture of its physical and spiritual composition." In this new edition of Rossetti and His Circle, John Hall provides an urbane and witty introduction, supplying quotations from the early PreRaphaelite literature, anecdotes, and biographical material to help explain the genesis of the book. The drawings themselves, newly reproduced from the originals, are further supplemented with additional caricatures of related subjects, old photographs from which Beerbohm worked, and related short prose pieces by Beerbohm, some from his unfinished and unpublished novel about the Pre~Raphaelites. The book presents Max's Rossetti drawings more vividly than they have ever been seen before, not only preserving but enhancing Beerbohm's masterpiece of comic art.…
