HARRISON, Florence Christina Rossetti Poems

Blackie, 1910.

First edition illustrated by Florence Harrison. Full white buckram with gilt titles and Art Nouveau design in gilt to spine and covers, in the original scarce printed dustwrapper with matching design. Top edge gilt and others untrimmed. Thirty six mounted colour plates and many Art Nouveau style plates and line drawings by Florence Harrison. A fine copy, exceptionally clean and bright, one very small smudge to page x, in a near fine dustwrapper, with a touch of wear to the spine ends. Prize bookplate tipped in to half title. A superb copy.

This book is a sumptuous production with the Art Nouveau / Pre-Raphaelite style illustrations ideally matching Rossetti's poetry. A large selection of the artist's poems, including: Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress and Dreamland as well as with a section of "Devotional Poems". The illustrations have a mixture of influences, the Pre-Raphaelite period is represented by the use of warm rich colours and the Art Nouveau style is evident in the stylised line drawings.
