(sheet c.280 x 210mm.), initialled JBW in pencil, [c.1938]; sheet of 3 pencil and 3 pen & ink erotic sketches for figures in engraving on p.22, on wove paper, sheet c.290 x 235mm., initialled in pencil, [c.1938]; 2 pencil and 1 pen & ink & pencil erotic sketches for figures in engraving on p.24, on wove paper, sheet c.235 x 295mm., initialled in pencil, [c.1938]; with several early state proofs of the engravings, comprising: engraving on p.19 before aquatint, c.75 x 130mm., engravings with aquatint on pp.17 & 18 (printed on both sides), c.75 x 130mm., engravings with aquatint of title-vignettes of girl with cockerel, c.45 x 35mm., slightly creased, and engravings with aquatint of triangular tail-pieces, c.110 x 45mm., all well-inked and very good impressions, on laid paper, trimmed close, [Golden Cockerel Press], [1939] (10) ⁂ "The very fine engravings, by a process revived for the first time in our generation and which took two years to produce, were inspired by the Roman sarcophagi in the Louvre." Christopher Sandford in Pertelote. "This is what I call a perfect print. The tone is sufficient and not too even. The lines have their full value and have slight tone or aureal round them, which will go on improving with age. It is of course greatly helped by the type of paper used, the ink, and the slight 'burr' left on the lines...This plate was printed cold, rag-wiped but not retroussé, and went once through the press..." John Buckland Wright quoted in Pertelote. Buckland Wright used the process of combining line-engraving on copper with sugar-aquatint again in The Grecian Enchanted of 1952 (see lot 131).

Buckland Wright (John).- Swinburne (Algernon Charles) Hymn to Proserpine, number 37 of 50 specially-bound copies with an extra engraving, from an edition limited to 350, wood-engraved pictorial title, illustrations and device on colophon by John Buckland Wright, 2 full-page, original purple morocco, by Sangorski & Sutcliffe, with inlaid green morocco panel blocked with Aphrodite and her cockerel by JBW (colophon device) in gilt on upper cover, t.e.g., others uncut, green morocco label on spine slightly faded, cloth slip-case, [Cockalorum 159; Reid A41a], Golden Cockerel Press, 1944; with a copy of the prospectus for this and Dorothea Braby's Ninety-First Psalm (Cockalorum LXXVI), one of 2340 copies, 4to (2)

"In his 58 illustrations Buckland Wright is both as classical and as romantic as the poet could have desired. His vision, it seems to me, approaches that of Keats as closely as is possible for any artist working in our generation. While there is more than a hint of classicism in his admirable figures, their groupings and settings are romantic." Christopher Sandford in Cockalorum.
