Binding.- Bodoni.- Tasso (Torquato) Aminta, Favola Boschereccia, ora per la prima volta alla sua vera lezione ridotta, first Bodoni edition, one of only 50 copies on velin paper "Carta d'Anonnay", engraved portrait vignette and engraved coat-of-arms, later dark blue straight-grain morocco, gilt, by Thouvenin, outer broad border of arabesques and stylized flowers and acanthus leaves, in the four corners of the sides large pointille squares enclosing quatrefoil ornaments, inner narrow border of palmettes blind-tooled, large inner fan-shaped pointille corner pieces composed of arabesques, acanthus and leafy tools, in centres a large ornament with corresponding tools, spine with 5 raised double bands, the second compartment lettered in gilt, the others gilt with leafy tools on pointille background, doublures and endleaves of pink watered silk surrounded by gilt borders, g.e., preserved in silk-lined cloth drop-back box, [Brooks 379], 4to (binding 303 x 225mm.), Parma, Impresso co'caratteri Bodoniani, 1789.⁂ A magnificent copy of this celebrated typographic masterpiece. Brunet cites this as "une des plus belles éditions" produced by the legendary printer-typographer. Dedicated to the Marchesa Donna Anna Malaspina della Bastia with a poem of Vincenzo Monti, printed in Bodoni's elegant italics, underneath her engraved coat of arms and with a preface by the Abate Pierantonio Serassi. While it was subsequently reprinted in 1792 with a frontispiece bearing the original printing date of 1789, this example is identifiable as the first issue (with the small signature number on p. 13 of the preface, and the correct "novi lumi" on p. 38).The sumptuous binding, executed c.1830, is by Joseph Thouvenin l'Aîné. Born in 1791, the son of a bookseller, he learned bookbinding from 1802-1813. He started to work with Bozerian and had acquired great competence by 1806. He set up on his own in 1813, apparently to learn the gilding which Bozérian Jeune had been unwilling to teach him. His submission of 11 bindings at the Exhibition of 1819 was rewarded with an honourable mention while at that of 1823, he gained a silver medal. He became one of, if not the most respected and sought-after binders of the period but died in his binding prime in 1834.

Cosway binding.- Dodgson (Charles Lutwidge) "Lewis Carroll". Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, 'twelfth thousand', illustrations by John Tenniel, original cloth covers and spine bound in at end, magnificent double Cosway binding of burgundy morocco by Riviere & Son, each cover with a central inset circular miniature under glass by Miss C.B. Currie, gilt fillets radiating to ornate hand-tooled foliate frames with gilt-decorated green morocco onlays in corners and centres, recently and finely rebacked to match by Bayntun (who acquired the Riviere stock of binding tools in 1939), with spine gilt in compartments with 5 raised bands and 4 green morocco matching onlays, dark green watered silk doublures within only slightly less ornate frames on pastedowns, g.e., preserved in modern suede-lined led morocco drop-back box, 8vo (binding 188 x 131mm.), 1868.⁂ A lavish Cosway binding (possibly circa 1910-1913), with miniatures by Miss C.B. Currie after Tenniel's illustrations; the front doublure is stamped in gilt 'Miniatures by C.B. Currie'. The scenes depicted are Alice with flamingo/croquet mallet and the Duchess on the front cover; and Alice and the Dodo on the rear.At the beginning of the 20th century John Harrison Stonehouse, managing director of Henry Sotheran Booksellers, began to commission these distinctive fine bindings by Rivière and Son, featuring inset miniatures by his in-house miniaturist, Miss Currie. Many of her excellent miniatures imitated the style of the earlier painter Richard Cosway, hence the term Cosway binding. Over nearly 40 years she produced miniatures for over 900 bindings. Examples from other binderies, featuring miniatures by other artists, are referred to as Cosway-style bindings; they are far more common, and generally far less desirable. This copy has 'Bound by Rivière & Son' stamped in gilt near the bottom edge of the inside front cover; the rear doublure is stamped in gilt within a small decorative frame 'Bound by Rivière & Son, from designs by J.H. Stonehouse'; and 'H. Sotheran & Co., 45 Piccadilly, London' is stamped in gilt near the bottom edge of the inside rear cover.
