Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. First Thus. Catalogue. Charlton Paris Register 1562-1653. Slight foxing to end inside cover. The earliest volume of registers of St. Luke's Church held at the Greenwich Local History Library begins in 1653. However, the existence of an earlier volume of baptisms, marriages and burials from 1562 was recorded by H. H. Drake in his revision of Hasted's History of Kent Vol. 1., published in 1886. By 1908 this volume had disappeared and its whereabouts are still not known. Fortunately, extracts were published in Drake's Hasted, and these are reprodyuced here to serve as a companion volume to the existing transcripts edited by Francis Ward. 17 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

First edition in English of one of the most influential technical painting manuals of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries: Traité de mignature (also École de la mignature), 1673. First printed by Christophe Ballard in 1673, the publisher's initials perhaps giving rise to an unproven attribution to one 'Claude Boutet', it appeared in over 30 editions in a variety of European languages over the next 200 years, often with additions and alterations by anonymous authors.The English edition is dedicated to John Montagu, second duke of Montagu (1690-1749) by its anonymous translator. After an exposition of the available colours and materials, the chapters consider in turn: Draperies; Of Carnations [flesh], or the Naked Parts of Painting; Landskips and Flowers; followed by a short treatise on the advantages of miniature painting over other techniques. The section devoted to flowers is extensive, with detailed instructions on the painting of roses, tulips, anemones ('wind-flower'), carnations, lilies, hyacinths, peonies, crocuses, irises, jasmine, tuberoses, hellebores, daffodils, passion-flowers, pinks, pomegranate, indian bean flower and crown imperial, among others. 8vo (170 × 100 mm), pp. [10], 100, [6] (including adverts to final page). Woodcut vignette to title, ornamental head- and tailpieces, one small illustration (a 'Mathematical Compass' or a variety of pantograph). Extensive later pencil markings and annotations. An excellent copy preserved in recent panelled calf to style by Philip Dusel, preserving original endpaper with eighteenth-century engraved bookplate of Edward Francklin of Rainham (Norfolk).
