About This Item
Dodd, Mead and Company, , 1886. First Edition. Hardcover. Good. this copy has been rebound by the toronto library in 1894...the binding is tight and solid the interior text and artis clean of marks..The Dodd, Mead version of Rossetti's 'Blessed Damozel' exemplifies the eighties concept of the artistic unified book. The imposing size of the page is matched by the solemnity and gravity of the illustrations and decorations, photographically reproduced from brush drawings by Kenyon Cox⦠'The Blessed Damozel' proved to be a landmark in Cox's career. Criticism at the time of publication was favorable⦠but with decided reservations. Many writers⦠were disturbed by the overly literal copying of nude models
