NEW YORK: 66 FIFTH AVENUE MDCCCXCVI 5 PRINTED AT THE CHISWICK PRESS BY CHARLES WHITTINGHAM & CO. TOOKS COURT, CHANCERY LANE, LONDON, E.C. PREFACE. HIS book had its origin in the course of three (Cantor) Lectures given before the Society of Arts in 1889; they have been amplified and added to, and further chapters have been written, treating of the very active period in printing and decorative book- illustration we have seen since that time, as well as some remarks and suggestions touching the general principles and conditions governing the design of book pages and ornaments. It is not nearly so complete or comprehensive as I could have wished, but there are natural limits to the bulk of a volume in the " Ex-Libris" series, and it has been only possible to carry on such a work in the intervals snatched from the absorbing work of designing. -

Lot 150 Estimate: £200 - £300 + Fees REGINALD F. HALLWARD (BRITISH 1858-1948) Property from the Estate of the Artist REGINALD F. HALLWARD (BRITISH 1858-1948) Requiem ink on scratchboard 25.5 x 36 cm (10 x 14 1/8 in) The artist's use of scratchwork in the present lot and lot 152 reflects his interest in illustration for which the medium was commonly used at the time. Hallward was a prolific artist, widely known for his romantic landscapes that evoke a mythic past, who was also in demand for stained glass windows and lattery for his commemorative sculptures. He trained first at the Slade and the Royal College of Art, and then in the late 1880s with the leading Arts and Crafts stained-glass practitioner Christopher Whall at his studio in Dorking. Hallward was friends with Oscar Wilde - Basil Hallward in Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray was very likely named after him – and he married the painter, illustrator and author Adeleide Bloxham (1861-1925) in 1887. He exhibited his work widely: at the Royal Academy, the New English Art Club and the Royal Society of British Artists. Before the First World War he was represented by the influential Dowdeswell Gallery, and also showed at the Rowley Gallery. -
Arts & Crafts Stained Glass
Event Review: Summer lecture Friday 19 June : ‘Exploring Arts & Crafts Stained Glass: a 40-year adventure in light and colour – an illustrated lecture’ by Peter Cormack he lecture was an introduction to some of the main themes Tof the speaker’s newly-published book, Arts & Crafts Stained Glass (Yale University Press for the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art). He began by saying that his discovery of this rich field of research had begun when he was a student at Cambridge in the 1970s, and had developed particularly during his thirty years working as a curator at the William Morris Gallery in London. He paid tribute to the work of other scholars in the field, especially Martin Harrison’s V ictorian Stained Glass , Birkin Haward’s two books on 19th-century glass in Norfolk and Suffolk and Nicola Gordon Bowe’s studies of Irish stained glass. He also emphasized the critical importance of ‘field-work’ – actually going to the places where windows are located to see them in their architectural context. He felt that the internet, with its wealth of images, could sometimes deter people from studying stained glass properly. This was why the BSMGP’s conferences, with their focussed study-visits to churches and other sites, were such a valuable exercise. He then took us through the main narrative of his book, beginning with the pioneers who, from the late 1870s onwards, had championed stained glass as a modern and expressive art form, instead of the formulaic and imitative productions of firms like C. E. Kempe. Henry Holiday was one of the most effective campaigners against commercialism and historicism: his windows Christopher Whall: detail of window in Gloucester Cathedral Lady Chapel, 1901 feature superb figure-drawing combined with a real knowledge of his craft. -
