Description:
London: Constable and Company Limited; Houghton Mifflin Company, 1926. First edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good Indeed. 10.5" by 8". J. Crowther. An intriguing first edition volume detailing London's lost buildings, featuring the artwork of John Crowther. In the late nineteenth century Charles Chadwyck-Healey, a barrister later knighted, commissioned artist John Crowther to record in watercolour buildings about London likely to be torn down during the Victorian expansion and modernisation of the capital, leading to Crowther to produce over 440 paintings. When E. Beresford Chancellor was approached to provide descriptions for this work, he organised the 'journey' the reader would take and provided an almost continuous narrative to guide them through a London lost to the twentieth century. First edition. Limited edition; only 1025 copies produced. With dust-wrapper. With 59 illustrated plates, both colour and monochrome, collated complete. A charming travelogue through a lost history, this work…
