Full calf relievo by Remnant Edmonds & Remnants: blind-stamped titles and ivy decorations, beveled boards, gilt returns, all edges gilt, endpapers decorated in gold, stout leaves. Colophon states "Printed in colors at 9 Argyll Place," the home of Jones. Edges and spine ends minimally rubbed, moderate foxing to outer leaves and minimal elsewhere, fragile original perfect binding skillfully re-set with thread, very short closed tears and crimps to first leaves, "Timidity" plate lightly offset to facing text. Gift inscription in ink fills the blank preliminary: "Phoebe Woodward presented by her sister Sarah [.] July 19th 1851." A splendid, unusually well-preserved example of Victorian book tastes and innovations. Architect Jones studied Islamic decoration and refined the chromolithographic process to print his great 1836-45 Alhambra himself, while illuminated gift book production helped recoup the investment. His now-classic 1856 sourcebook The Grammar of Ornament remains in print.Edmonds & Remnants deeply embossed the covers with heated dies in a massive iron fly press, a new process patented by Frederick Leake used just into the 1860s.Painter and garden designer Bateman was associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.Bacon, from a family of writers and editors, contributed literary articles to magazines and published a few volumes of verses; three were collaborations with Jones. Each flower specimen is equated with a personality aspect: "Humility," "Childhood," "Hope," etc.Illuminator and scholar Henry Noel Humphries is credited by Ruari McLean for the gold floral designs.
