PRINTS BOOKS PHOTOGRAPHS MANUSCRIPTS CURIOSITIES – FINELY HAND-PAINTED -Large and finely-bound illuminated manuscript commissioned as a retirement gift for a council alderman in northern England, in the late Arts and Crafts era, 1911. Full black morocco binding. Upper cover with elaborate gilt bordering and gilt corner-pieces, with council’s emblem also in gilt against a burgundy morocco inlaid background. Blind-stamped bordering on rear cover, with brass rivets. Gilt lettering and date on upper cover ‘Presented to Mr. J. F. Carter ex-alderman of the Leeds City Council / July 29th 1911’. Moiré silk endpapers, surrounded by gilt dentelles on the inside of the covers. Two pages of richly gilt and colourful hand-painted illumination on paper in the Arts and Crafts tradition, in turn harking back to medieval roots, accompanied by illuminated text – with red and gilt hand-painted initials – each page laid into the windows of thick card mounts. The first page with Carter’s name in large red letters surrounded by gilt scrolling, and with hand-coloured photographic oval inset of the Leeds City Council building. Second page with hand-painted Leeds council ‘seal’, and also signed by 16 councilmen. Size: folio – 39.3cm x 35.2cm.Very Good to Good condition. Rubbing to edges, corners and spine of binding, with some leather worn away, and some minor scattered scratches. Two small patches of pin-prick worm trails to the foot of the front silk endpapers. Some water staining to the foot of the cloth used in the binding between the two illuminated pages, just imposing onto the card mounts on either side, but the illuminated sheets unaffected. Borders of thick card mounts somewhat brown, but again the illuminated pages unaffected. Light overall scattered marking to moiré endpapers, and one of the rear endpapers with a pale stain, only visible when tilted to light. Please ask if you require a more detailed condition report, or view gallery images.An highly attractive illuminated manuscript from the late Arts and Crafts era, which in turn harks back to the art form’s medieval origins, privately commissioned by Leeds City Council as a retirement gift for its ex-alderman J. F. Carter.Illuminated manuscripts like this from the early 20th century owe a lot to the art form’s late 19th century renaissance led by William Morris and Owen Jones – and their circles – in the Arts and Crafts period, which was also spearheaded to some degree by the Gothic Revivalists. Leeds City alderman J. F. Carter lived in a large house in Beeston. He had The Punch Bowl Hotel in Beeston, rebuilt for his son in around 1890. However, his son later tragically drowned on honeymoon at Lake Lucerne, Switzerland. The street at the back of The Punch Bowl and the three adjoining shops is named Carter Terrace after the ex-alderman. key words:
