Peter Henry Emerson: 'Marsh Leaves', London, David Nutt, 1895, one of 200 copies from an edition of 300 copies only, sixteen photogravure plates as called for, each tissue guarded with printed caption, quarto, original decorative cloth, top edge gilt, ownership signature of Herbert Woods (1891-1954) to FFEP, founder of the Herbert Woods boatyard of Potter Heigham in 1929 and designer of the revolutionary Broads light Cruiser 'Speed of Light'. Emerson's last published book of photographic works, Grolier, The Truthful Lens 54; The Photobook, vol. 1, p. 72: 'Certainly, the 16 photo-etchings take his art to where it could probably go no further, and as a fusion of text and imagery the book is entirely successful... It is one of the most beautiful books about isolation and solitude, perhaps death, ever made, and Emerson's spare, evocative pictures were seldom equalled by the later Pictorialists'.
