Amst., J. van Someren Wwe., J. van Dyck Erben etc., 1685. Gr.-Fol. Kupfertit., Portr. v. A. Bloteling nach Lairesse, 105 Kupfertaf., davon Taf. 10 v. 2 Platten gest. u. Taf. 23 gef., 67 unn. Bll. (inkl. Drucktit.). Prgt. d. Zt. mit blindgepr. Fil., Eckfleurons und Supralibros auf beiden Deckeln, Ldr.-Rsch. (Die Deckel fleckig, stärker aufgebogen und bestoßen, ob. Kapital aufgebrochen, Gelenke angeplatzt, das Ldr.-Rsch. fehlt fast ganz). Garrison/M. 385 (nennt als Stecher nach Lairesse nur Pieter van Gunst); Hirsch/H. I, 527: Krivatsy 1238 (fehlt das Portr.); Norman 295 (vermutet auch für alle Kupfer Bloteling als Stecher); Thieme/B. XV, 345 (nur zu Gunst; nicht bei Lairesse): "Beide (Pieter u. Philipp van Gunst) zusammen arbeiteten für das 1685 zu Amst. erschienene anatom. Werk des Bidloo"; Wellcome II, 165 (fehlt das Portr.); nicht bei Osler u. Waller. - Erste Ausgabe dieses großformatigen anatomischen Atlas', komplett mit allen 105 Tafeln, dem schönen allegor. Kupfertit. u. dem oft fehlenden Portr. "Die Abbildungen alle durch den berühmten Gerard de Lairesse nach den durch B. gefertigten Präparaten gezeichnet, haben vom artistischen Standpunkte aus grossen Werth, doch lassen sie vom anatomischen Standpunkte aus viel zu wünschen übrig, da B. nicht immer genau genug präparierte und dasjenige, was dem Maler dunkel war, durch seine Phantasie ergänzte." (H./H., auch wissenschaftl. gesehen). Vom Künstlerischen jedoch liegt die Bedeutung des Werkes für Garrison/M. u. Norman im wesentlichen in den eleganten Kupfern: "masterpieces of baroque art" (G./M.) bzw. Norman: "(Lairesse's) illustrations eerily juxtapose meticulously realistic images of flayed corpses or body parts with objects of everyday life. (they) were an occasion for an artistic meditation on anatomy.(He) brought the qualities of Dutch still-life paintings into anatomical illustrations, and gave a new darker spiritual expression to the significance of the art of dissection." - Tafel 10 (v. 2 Platten) stark lädiert, in zwei Teile mit Schäden zerfallen, jedoch von der Darst. her restaurierbar; sie war als Klapptafel eingebunden.

Golding (William) Lord of the Flies, first edition, signed presentation inscription from the author "I sent this to Adam Bittleston in 1954. Apparently I wrote nothing in it - now I rededicate it to Karin Bittleston. William Golding" to half-title, original cloth, very slight shelf-lean, minor bumping to spine ends, else fine, first state dust-jacket priced at 12s 6d and with blurb to upper flap, light browning to spine, spine ends and corners a little chipped, some light toning and soiling to lower panel, still excellent overall, preserved in custom chemise and morocco-backed slip-case with initials DMS with net and book to upper cover, 8vo, Faber & Faber, 1954.⁂ Golding's celebrated classic presented to one of his closest friends and later inscribed to his daughter. Golding and Adam Bittleston became close friends whilst at Oxford together. Bittleston, who was later ordained, became a confidant, spiritual guide and inspiration to the young author. While Bittleston's advice and thinking influenced much of Golding's life and work, his most visible contribution is as the inspiration for the kind, eccentric character of Nathaniel in Pincher Martin.

The warehouse holding the unbound sheets from this work was flooded, causing loss to the stock as well as damage to the surviving copies, offsetting as in the present case is commonplace.
