A Collection Of Etchings after the most Eminent Masters of the Dutch and Flemish School: Particularly Rembrandt, Ostade, Cornelius Bega And Van Vliet Accompanied with Sundry Miscellaneous Pieces and A Few Original Designs
by David Deuchar

- Hardcover
- first
Suite of 226 etchings (of 366) from Deuchar's scarce A Collection of Etchings, 1803 apparently almost all of Vols. 1 and 2 of the 3-volume set.
The engravings are trimmed to the plate mark and mounted on cream paper, from one to five to a page, ranging in size from 4cm x 4cm to 14cm x 19cm.
Some etchings are signed Deuchar, a few have the artist's name (e.g., Bega, Ostade, Vliet, Castiglione) and most are dated from 1783 to 1802.
The suite includes religious scenes and beggars by Rembrandt, several heads by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione, many rustic scenes by Adriaen van Ostade, and a few after Stefano Della Bella, Hendrick Vliet and Cornelis Bega, five plates from Robert Watson's Five Senses suite, and two plates by Adriaen Brouwer (engraved by Thomas Major). Subjects include tavern scenes, gamblers, drunks and smokers, school scenes, bagpipers and fiddlers, tradespeople, lovers, beggars, ice-skaters, etc.
Deuchar's original designs can be recognized by their subjects in 18th century Scottish dress, a crofter in tam o'shanter, a man in trews in a cottage, a gang of highwaymen, a fiddler in a market square, etc.
With Deuchar's trade stamp on final page, David Deuchar Lapidary, Edinburgh, cuts and sels al sorts of fine stones viz rings, stones, seals, picture backs etc., glasses, and many others. NB sels emery, rottenstone, etc. within a decorative frame of grapes, figures, heads and foliage, surmounted by two cupids supporting an oval bust of a lady with the motto, Gives the highest price for uncut stones.
David Deuchar (1743-1808) was a Scottish etcher, goldsmith and engraver born in Montrose and active in Edinburgh. He and Alexander Deuchar were appointed Seal-Engravers to George, Prince of Wales, around 1786. He published a series of etchings based on Hans Holbein's Dance of Death (actually copied from the Wenceslaus Hollar engravings) in 1788, and published this collection of etchings in 1803.
In half leather with five raised bands, gilt title and tooling on spine, cloth-covered boards, worn and scuffed, a.e.g., marble endpapers, book block solid, engravings mostly clean with some scattered foxing. Facsimile of engraved title page loosely inserted in front. A very good collection of plates in a fair binding.

Description:
This book is bound with leather covers and a cloth spine. There is a label on the front cover which is not readable. New endsheets have been added at some point in the book's long history, but the original endsheets and covers are present. There is a former owner's inscription on the original front endsheet. Pages are intact and the binding is tight. The book contains black & white drawings of muscles, bones, and bandages. There is an index for medicines and an extensive table of contents of body parts, diseases, syndromes, and treatments. Printed in the year 1846, the book itself is, in essence, a time capsule that portrays how medicine was practiced aboard an early nineteenth century sailing ship. This will make a wonderful addition to the library of the collector of medical memorabilia.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
