Rare mezzotint in excellent condition depicting the great meteor seen over Britain on August 18th, 1783. The great meteor of 1783 was visible for a thousand miles over northwestern Europe. It “ranks among the brightest and most spectacular of such objects ever recorded” and was responsible for some of the “first detailed and generally accurate representations of such a phenomenon” (Beech). Witnesses reported that the meteor lit up the whole sky, with a letter in the Evening Chronicle recounting that its “lustre almost equalled the sun”. The natural philosopher Tiberius Cavallo viewed the meteor with a group of friends from the terrace at Windsor Castle, later writing that “every object appeared very distinct; the whole face of the country being instantly illuminated” (Payne).

* Paper.

Examples of complete sheets from the 18th century are uncommon and few survive. This example is probably unrecorded and shows a wide range of animals (including some exotic), as well as rural figures and villages. In his autobiography the German writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe mentions such papers having given him the greatest pleasure in his childhood: Along with other children, he used to spend a lot of money purchasing "coloured sheets printed with golden animals" ("farbige, it goldenen Tieren bedruckte Bogen") again and again at the so-called "Pfarreisen" booths at a fair located next to Bartholomaeus Church in Frankfurt am Main (J.W. von Gorthe, Dichtung und Wahrheit, 1st book, chapter 3). Not in Haemmerle. For the process cf. Krause / Rinck, no. 46. Other examples of brocade papers in Bilderbogen style showing animals are reproduced in most of the reference works on 18th century decorated paper, for example Christiane F. Kopylov, Papiers dorés d'Allemagne au siècle des lumières, no. 155 & 158.

Geneva version. The first large folio edition. In this edition the Geneva and the Prayer Book versions of the Psalter appear side by side, the former in roman type and the latter in black-letter. This is the earliest Bible which contains the introductory verses, afterwards occurring so often: Here is the spring where waters flowe, to quenche our heate of sinne: Here is the tree where trueth doth grow, to leade our lives therein: etc, and the accompanying prayer. The Prayer Book included in the preliminary matter exhibits many peculiarities; the word Minister is substituted throughout for Priest, and some of the Offices are omitted. The title-border contains: above - the royal arms supported by two female figures, one carrying a sword and scales, the other a book and a sprig of heartsease; and below - a lion and a dragon on either side of a tablet containing the words Imprinted ... Maiestatis (these words are on a slip pasted over the original imprint, which omits the words Printer to the Queenes Maiestie and Regiae Maiestatis); the initials C B appear in the lower corners of the central space, and also at the base of the cut. The same border is used for the NT title; but the tablet in this case contains Prov. xxx. 5, 6. Fry states in a MS. note that the Prayer Book is generally missing from copies of this edition, as collectors of editions of the Book of the Book of Common Prayer are eager to acquire this peculiar variety, and often cut the leaves out of the Bible. (Herbert/ Darlow & Moule). Augustus Frederick (1773-1843) was the 9th child (& 6th son) of King George III and Queen Charlotte. He was tutored at home and then, in 1786, sent to the University of Göttingen in Germany. In 1793, while travelling in Italy, he met and married Lady Augusta Murray, daughter of the Earl of Dunmore. On their return to England, they again married in secret, without the consent of the King. Since this was illegal under the Royal Marriages Act of 1772, the marriage was annulled by the Prerogative Court in 1794, though Augustus Frederick continued to live with Lady Augusta until 1801 and they had two children. In November 1801, he was created Duke of Sussex. In 1831, he married a second time, again without the consent of the King. This marriage was to Lady Cecilia Buggin, daughter of the Earl of Arran. Augustus Frederick suffered from asthma, and therefore did not follow his brothers in pursuing a military or naval career but showed enthusiasm for learning and the arts, with a particular interest in biblical studies and Hebrew. He was elected president of the Society of Arts in 1816 and held this position till his death in 1843. Between 1830 and 1838, he was also president of the Royal Society. He assembled an outstanding library at Kensington Palace, containing around 50,000 books and manuscripts. All were individually selected to reflect the Prince’s interests, with over a quarter related to theology. After his death, the library was sold at auction by Messrs. Evans in 1844.
