Print; extracted from Beyer's Album of Virginia, an oblong folio, 16 /3/4 x 24 1/4". One of forty tinted lithographic plates, as well as title leaf. The lithography was in fact done on the continent, by Rau & Son in Dresden.~~The German-born artist Edward Beyer was active in the United States from 1848 to 1857 and is remembered primarily for this Album of Virginia. This View from the Peak of Otter depicts several men, one with a telescope, taking in the view.~~Most of the scenes in Beyer's Album are from the Valley of Virginia, and depict the soft contours of the mountains of Virginia. All of them have a soft, luminous quality, with great appeal. "This collection of forty-one views is one of the most pleasant of American color-plate books to behold" [McGrath, 88]. ~~This plate has some toning; it has faded, and is framed with mat. (Sabin 5135; Howes B,413; Bennett 10; McGrath, American Color Plate Books 1800-1900).

Buch Erstausgabe
Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Oblong folio (16 4/8 x 24 4/8 inches). Spotted colour tinted lithographic vignette title-page and 40 SPOTTED and dampstained colour tinted lithographic plates after Beyer by Rau & Son and A. v. W. Loeillot (each plate laid down on heavier stock). Original half black morocco, black cloth decorated in gilt and blind (rebacked, endpapers renewed, scuffed). First edition, of this album of lithographic views of Virginia by a German artist resident from 1854-1856. Beyer, a graduate of Dusseldorf Academy of Art, first traveled to America in 1848, at first settling in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He visited Virginia in 1854 and stayed until about 1856 or 1857 sketching and painting a number of scenes that would appear in the present work, after the publication of which he returned to Germany. The scenes depicted in the album include: the Natural Bridge in Rockbridge County, Harper's Ferry, Kanawha Fall, Old Point Comfort, James River Canal; spelunking scenes in Weyer's Cave; and resorts and natural springs such as Stribling Springs, White Sulphur Spring, Hot Springs. It is conceivable that one of the reasons, beyond their obvious beauty, that Beyer depicted so many natural springs and resorts is because of his wife's ailing health. The title-page vignettes include Monticello and Mount Vernon. Howes mentions an 1836 issue although this is likely a ghost as no copies are located by him or more recent bibliographers. An octavo volume with descriptions for the plates was issued, but rarely accompanies this volume. Howes B413; Sabin 5125. Catalogued by Kate Hunter.

(Occasional expert repairs, each plate backed with archival tissue).

Of the/ Old Dominion. By/ Edward Beyer', lower cover blocked in blind, modern cloth box One of the foremost American view books created in the nineteenth century ("an outstanding item" [Bennett]) here with the scarce octavo volume of explanatory text published separately in Richmond: the plates very clean, free of the foxing often found with this title. [With:] [Edward BEYER]. Description of the Album of Virginia: or, the Old Dominion, illustrated. Richmond: Enquirer Book and Job Printing Office, 1857. Vol.I (all published), 8vo (8 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches). Original half calf over cloth-covered boards, titled in gilt on upper cover, modern cloth box. Edward Beyer was a German artist who visited the United States in the early 1850s. He chose to concentrate his work on Virginia and Kentucky, spending three years in Virginia working on the original drawings for this book. Although the titlepage gives Richmond as a place of printing, the book was actually produced in Germany, with the plates being prepared in Dresden and the letterpress in Berlin. The superb tinted lithograph views include beautiful natural scenes, Harper's Ferry, White Sulphur Springs, railroad bridges and tunnels (e.g Highbridge near Farmville), views in Weyer's Cave, and scenes at many of the fashionable resorts which nestled amid the mountains of Southwest Virginia. A broad variety of places in Virginia are shown. Deak writes of Beyer, "He was taken by the beauty of the Virginia landscape, particularly by the elegant settings of some of the region's watering places.Virginians responded warmly to Beyer's enterprise and often gave him advance access to architectural plans when these could be of help to him. There was probably no Virginia county that Beyer left unvisited in his zeal to present what is, in fact, an affectionate family album of an entire state." Deak praises Beyer's "delicate and precise style" and "characteristic refinement of proportion." Bennett p.10; Deak Picturing America 721; Howes B413 ("b"); Sabin 5125.
