 * This splendid specimen of the press of Sweynheim and 
 
 Pannartz, is the only copy of the first edition of Livy 
 known to exist upon vellum. It appears, by the 
 arms at the bottom of the first page of the history, to 
 have been taken off for Alexander VI. when Vice- 
 Chancellor of the Roman See, and Governor of the 
 Monastery of Soubiaco, where Sweynheim and Pan¬ 
 nartz took up their abode (being a German monas¬ 
 tery) when they introduced the art of printing into 
 
 L Italy.

 378 
 
 Minister of France at the Court of Rome, wishing to 
 obtain a transcript of the rules for drawing, em¬ 
 ployed Nicholas Poussin, then pursuing his studies 
 at Rome, to make drawings of what L. Da Vinci 
 described. These are the subjects : 
 
 4 Drawings of Anatomical Figures. 
 
 22 Drawings of Human Figures. 
 
 2 Heads in Profile. 
 
 A Hand and a Horse. 
 
 This volume exhibits an admirable specimen of N. 
 Poussin’s powers of drawing, and evinces an extra¬ 
 ordinary combination of taste, spirit, fidelity, and 
 science. 
 
 Orders of the Venetian State for the Government 
 of Istria, with a Painting, in which is the Portrait of 
 Nicolas Nani by Tintoret, in a perfection of touch and 
 strength of colouring which distinguish that great master. 
 Tintoret at this time held the appointment of Painter to 
 the State of Venice; and this Book, with his Picture, was 
 presented by the Doge to N. Nani on his appointment to 
 the Government of Capo d’Istria. MS. on vellum, 
 4to. in the original binding, with the date 1543, red 
 morocco. ' / r 
 
 Orders of the Venetian State for the Government 
 of Chioza, with two very fine Miniature Paintings by 
 Cavalliero Zelotti, the competitor of P. Veronese ; one of 
 which represenls Domenico Bragadino introduced by his 
 tutelar Saint to Our Saviour and the Virgin. MS. on 
 vellum, of the most beautiful Italian Calligraphy — pre¬ 
 sented by the Doge to Bragadino on his appointment to 
 the Government of Chioza; in rich old binding, with the 
 insignia of Venice, and date 1589 ; it is in the most per¬ 
 fect condition for binding, writing, and painting. /3 
 
 380 Portrait of Marc Anthony Bragadino, and a correspondent 
 painting symbolical of the Venetian State; both are said 
 to be executed by Titian, 1567, being part of a Book 
 appointing him to the Government of Famagosta when 
 that place was besieged by the Turks; he defended it after 
 every other part of Cyprus had surrendered; but after a 
 year’s siege lie was obliged to capitulate from want of pow¬ 
 der ; favourable terms were granted, but the perfidious 
 enemy disregarding them, put the garrison to the sword, 
 sent the citizens to the gallies, and flayed alive Bragadino.

 This is the first edition of the Latin Bible with a date. 
 
 A magnificent copy, the finest which has been offered 
 to public sale for many years. The book is as fair 
 and fresh as when it came from the press; the leaves 
 were carefully selected from two very fine copies, 
 
 2 vol. splendidly bound in blue morocco. 
 fPzc/l 809 Biblia Sacra Latina, cum Interpretationibus Hebraicorum

 printed at Paris. A remarkably fine copy, in blue

 It has the following colophon : 
 
 jam tribus undecimus lustris Francos Ludovicus 
 Rexerat! Ulricus Martinus itemque Michael 
 Orti Teutonia, hanc mihi composuere figuram 
 
 Parish arte sua me correctam vigilanrer 
 
 Venalem in vico Jacobi sol aureus offert. 
 
 Which establishes the date of the impression to be 1476. 
 This is the celebrated edition which attracted so 
 
 
[ 41 ] 
 
 much curiosity and discussion by the imposition, 
 practised on Lord Oxford by an alteration of the 
 colophon, and which would have ascribed it to 1463. 
 
 The edition, however, is unusually rare and Mr. 
 
 Edwards, who, from his valuable and extensive cor¬ 
 respondence on the continent, obtained more early 
 printed books than were ever imported by any one 
 individual, was yet more than twenty years before he 
 could obtain a fine copy.

 Printed upon vellum. This beautiful copy, of 
 an extremely rare edition of the Bible printed by 
 Jenson, is the only one which has occurred in any 
 sale for many years. It belonged to Sixtus IV. as 
 appears by his arms in the beginning of the book. 
 
 To this magnificent Pontiff (the founder of the 
 Vatican Library) Sweynheim and Pannartz addressed 
 the well known supplicatory letter for relief in con¬ 
 sideration of the numerous splendid works which had 
 been printed by them in Italy. The capitals are 
 Tichly illuminated, and at the commencement is an 
 , elegant miniature; bound in red morocco.

 The first edition of Luther’s translation of the Bible 
 after his final revision. His own copy, which he 
 used till his decease. This copy must always excite 
 the deepest interest and most lively emotions in the 
 breast of every Protestant. The manuscript 
 notes prefixed to each volume seem to introduce us 
 to the closet and acquaintance of a bright assemblage 
 of Reformers. We find Luther exhibiting in the 
 privacy of retirement the same unshaken confidence 
 in the Deity under the persecutions he was suffering, 
 as he nobly evinced in public. In a manuscript note 
 in the second volume he transcribes the verse of the 
 23rd Psalm c Etiam quum ambularem per vallem 
 lethalis umbrx, non timerem malum, quia tu me- 
 cum es,” and then adds a passage strongly indicative 
 of his own exalted ideas of faith. He appears to have 
 bequeathed this copy to Bugenhagen, who, on the 
 19th of May, 1556, wrote in it a pious distich and 
 some religious sentiments, in which he denies the

 necessity of profane learning. The illustrious Me- 
 lancthon was its next possessor. He writes a re¬ 
 markable passage relative to the final consummation 
 of all things, and intimates his belief that the end of 
 world is not far distant, adding <f may Jesus Christ, 
 the Son of Almighty God, preserve and protect his 
 poor flock, scriptum manu Philippi, 1557.The

 witnesses.

 the Ninth Century upon vellum, of the first curio¬

 hand with this peculiarity, the Greek is written in Ro¬

 A very learned antiquary has given the following illus¬

 enclosed with a line of gold. The vignettes and minia¬ 
 tures, in taste and delicacy of execution surpass the most 
 exquisite enamel. It was done for the Duchess d’Aumont, 
 and has the arms of Villeroy and Le Tellier. A beauti¬ 
 ful miniature of St. Agnes has the name of Antoinette 
 C.; red morocco, in a vellum case. 2 & 
 
 Officium Beat.® Virginis, 8vo. An elegant little

 Each page is encircled with gold. It has 14 large Paint¬ 
 ings, and the Calendar is ornamented with a border filled 
 with appropriate emblematic devices. The Paintings are 
 by various hands It was obtained from the Collection 
 of Count Macartey after several negoications, and is one 
 of the most beautiful that was ever brought into this . 
 country ; blue morocco, with gold clasps. 0 y " 
 
 Officium Beat/e Virginis, i2ino. A delicate little 
 Book of Offices of the Sixteenth Century, in Roman 
 characters. The Paintings exquisitely finished, the writ¬ 
 ing admirable, and the border most playfully ornamented 
 in the best style, with devices and mottos of the family 
 for whom it was executed. This is by far the most ex¬ 
 quisite of the Italian illuminated offices that Mr. Edwards 
 ever had an opportunity of obtaining ; blue morocco. /22 
 The celeerated Bedford Missal, or Book of 
 Prayers and Devotional Offices executed for 
 John Duke of Bedford, Regent of France, containing 59 
 miniature paintings, which nearly occupy the whole page, 
 and above a thousand small miniatures of about an inch 
 and a half in diameter displayed in brilliant borders of 
 golden foliage with variegated flowers. Sec. at the bottom 
 of every page are two lines in blue and gold letters to ex¬ 
 plain the subject of each miniature ; a circumstance per~ 
 baps only to be found in this expensive performance —but 
 what enhances the value of the MS. in this country, is that 
 it has preserved the only portraits remaining of the 
 noble pair who formerly possessed it; John of Lancaster, 
 
 Duke of Bedford, Regent of France, and Anne of Bur¬ 
 gundy his Duchess’, interspersed with their mottos ; an 
 elegant expression of the gallantry of that time; on his 
 part “ A vous entier,” and on hers, J’en suis contente.” 
 
 And also the portraits of Henry V. of England and Ca¬ 
 therine of France. Nothing can exceed the strength of 
 
 
 &

 character and high finishing of the portraits. Mr. Gough 
 pronounced it the finest example of the art of that period 
 he had ever seen. Vertue engraved his portrait from this 
 painting. 
 
 Another interesting characteristic in this fine MS. is the 
 attestation of its being presented by gift of the Duchess, 
 and by order of her husband, to King Henry the Sixth, 
 when he went to be crowned in France, and was spending 
 his Christmas at Rouen. 
 
 The monogram of the attestor ^ is John Somerset, 7 
 
 styling himself Domini regis ad personam servitor ad sani - 
 tatevi vit&que conservationem consvlens. This is confirmed 
 in Hearne’s Vita Henrici 6, per T. de Elmham, where he 
 is called physician to the king; and that he was a favou¬ 
 rite appears from a grant of the Manor of Ruislip to him 
 for life by Henry 6’th. See Lysons’s Environs, vol. 5, 
 page 258 . 
 
 This rich book is 11 inches by seven and a half wide, 
 and two and a half thick, bound in crimson velvet, with 
 gold clasps, on which are engraved the arms of Harley, 
 
 Cavendish, and Hollis, quarterly, it was the property of 
 Edward Lord Harley, Earl of Oxford and Mortimer, who 
 bought it of Lady Worsley, great grand-daughter to 
 W. Seymour, second Duke of Somerset, who was ap¬ 
 pointed Governor to the Prince of Wales by King Charles 
 the First. It descended from Lord Oxford to his daugh- 
 ter, the Duchess of Portland, and was purchased at her 0 
 
 sale, May 24 , 1786. /

 Greek Vases. 
 
 1 A Pitcher and Cup, with 2 handles, each figured. 
 
 2 A larger Cup, of the finest ware, figure of a warrior, with 
 
 long spear, couching. Chabrias, the famous Athenian 
 general, commanded his men in the onset to couch under 
 their bucklers, himself teaching the posture by'bending his 
 knee, ordering his shield, and couching his lance (see 
 Cornelius Nepos's Life of Chabrias), of which this is an 
 exact representation. 
 
 3 A Pitcher and 2 Cups, fine black ware. 
 
 4 A Vase, small size, remarkably fine and thin, as shewn by a 
 
 small hole in the side. 
 
 5 A Sicilian Vase and Cover, the subject a Triclinium, with 
 
 3 figures recumbent, a male attendant with pitcher, and 
 female with music ; rats and gre) hounds cn the border.

 6 A magnificent Sicilian Vase, of the finest ware, with bearded 
 
 Bacchus and Thyrsus, preceded by females with torches : 
 another female and satyr. 2 
 
 Sir William Hamilton pronounced it to be one of the 
 finest of its kind he had ever seen ; the grandeur of its 
 size and shape, with the perfection of its drawing, 
 render it one of the most beautiful monuments of 
 ancient Greek art. It is 29 inches high, and 18 wide. 
 
 7 A most excellent Vase, Campana shape, called the Actaean 
 
 Vase, with four Greek heroes, and the names inscribed in 
 ancient Greek characters over each, viz. Tydaeus, Acteon, 
 Theseus, and Castor. This chef-d’oeuvre of Greek drawing 
 is so well known, that any further description is unneces¬ 
 sary. See an exact fac-simile of the figures in the plate, 
 No. III. 
 
 8 A very fine Nola Vase, Campana shape, with the battle of 
 
 Theseus and Hippolita : the hero is attended by Pirithous. 
 In beauty of drawing, size, and perfection, it is a proper 
 companion to the Actman Vase. It is engraved and de¬ 
 scribed in Millin Monumens Antiques inedites, vol. 2, 
 p. 115 . 
 
 9 The celebrated Greek Vase, known in Italy by the name of 
 
 IL GRAN VASO DEL CAPO DI MONTE, having 
 been deposited in that palace, with other treasures of the 
 Farnese family, by the King of Naples. It was found at 
 Polysthene, in Apulia, near Tarentum, in the year 178fi, 
 
 1 in a subterraneous apartment of 40 feet in length, at 14 
 feet below 7 the surface of the ground. The subject of the 
 painting in front, is the grand feature of Greek Pleroic 
 History, viz, the Battle of Theseus and Hippolita, doubly 
 represented, to shew the issue of the contest. Above them, 
 as in Olympus, are four deities, Apollo, with Diana, Minerva, 
 and Hercules, corresponding to the account, by Pau- 
 sanias, of the ornaments on the throne of Jupiter Olympus, 
 Book 5 , ch. 11. On the neck of the vase is a represen¬ 
 tation of Victory, as a winged female, in a chariot drawn 
 by four white horses, with a laurel upright, but preceded 
 by a female bearing torches, with a laurel prostrate. 
 Surmounting the vase are two heads, full-faced, which are 
 on one side white and the other side in shade ; two heads 
 of sw^ans on each side terminate the handles. 
 
 On the reverse of the vase is a deity seated in a temple, 
 holding a patera, with an egg placed upon it. Without the 
 temple are four figures of attendants, two of which also 
 exhibit the egg in a patera. See plates No. I. and II. 
 
[ 47 ] 
 
 The shape of this grandest of all the Greek vases 
 hitherto discovered, is of the most harmonious Greek 
 outline. Its height is 3 feet 6 inches, and it is in the 
 highest state of preservation. 
 
 The explanation of its drawings and symbols, by an 
 eminent Antiquary, (who makes it the prize of the con¬ 
 queror at the Panathanaean Games),* will be given to the 
 purchaser ; also a mahogany frame, with five large German 
 plate glasses, to contain the vase.
