4to., three-quarter crushed green morocco over cloth sides; spine with five raised bands and gilt decoration [by Riviere]. The joints and hinges have been renewed using morocco that closely matches the sunned spine and corners.First edition of Trevelyan's second book, it consists of sixteen poems, sonnets and translations, classical in origin, each of which is illustrated by a classical chiaroscuro woodcut printed in black and olive green, much in the manner of the work of the 16th century artist, Goltzius, and his contemporaries. The brilliantly conceived title-page, also printed in black and olive green, makes use of a highly decorative border and a large chiaroscuro print by Fry, the noted English painter and art critic. Trevelyan was the brother of the English historian, George Macaulay Trevelyan, and published much of his own poetry and translations from the Greek during his long and distinguished career at Cambridge. Uncommon and VERY HANDSOME!See: Colebeck Collection. Vol. II, p. 880.
