The names of Thomas Bewick (1753-1828) and his brother John (1760-1795) are synonymous with beautiful, delicate and accurate woodcuts of the natural world. Their instantly recognisable style was to influence book illustration well into the nineteenth century. The antiquary and print collector Thomas Hugo (1820-76), best known as a collector of Bewick woodcuts, first published this two-volume catalogue of his extensive collection in 1866-8. It has since emerged that many of the items sourced from printers' offices and booksellers across the country - including Thomas Bewick's own publisher, Emerson Charnley - cannot be authenticated as the Bewicks' work. The collection was nonetheless a remarkable assemblage of valuable materials, including uncut first editions, woodblocks, handbills and broadsides (all regrettably dispersed after Hugo's death) which might otherwise have been lost. Lavishly illustrated throughout, Volume 1 comprises the catalogue, which includes an appendix of Bewick portraits, letters and memorabilia.

Sir William Martin Conway (1856-1937), well known as an alpinist (his The Alps from End to End is also reissued in this series), was by profession an art historian. Supported by Henry Bradshaw of the University of Cambridge, he pursued his interest in the woodcuts and early printed books of the Low Countries, publishing this work in 1884. The study considers both prints and books, noting instances of the reuse of the same blocks in different works by different printers. The first part surveys the craftsmen (many of whom are anonymous) by town, and the second is a comprehensive catalogue of the cuts, with short descriptions, ordered according to their makers. The final part is a catalogue of the books in which the cuts appeared. Particular attention is paid to the work of Gheraert Leeu, the most prolific Dutch printer of his time, who worked in Gouda and subsequently in Antwerp.

Le singulier petit livre d'images sans titre, publié à Lyon, en 1556 chez Jean de Tournes, réédité l'année suivante en 1557, avec l'adjonction d'un intitulé sommaire : Pourtraits divers, réunit comme son nom l'indique, plusieurs figures gravées sur bois, illustrant des scènes de théâtre, des planètes, des portraits, des saynètes rustiques et galantes, des triomphes. Ces vignettes proviennent vraisemblablement toutes de l'atelier de l'illustre peintre de la Renaissance lyonnaise, Bernard Salomon, dit Le petit Bernard. Chacune est mise en valeur par sa présentation sur un feuillet individuel. Dénué de légendes, de pièces liminaires, de textes, on ignore les intentions véritables de l'éditeur quant à la diffusion de ce recueil d’images : quel était le public visé ? Quel profit pouvait-il en tirer ? Ce curieux album, déterminant un objet quelquefois évoqué dans les études seiziémistes, exigeait une édition propre, visant à présenter précisément ses composantes matérielles, à le replacer dans son contexte de publication et de réception, à mettre en exergue son originalité foncière, à percer le mystère entourant sa destination.

In this volume all the book woodcuts of Hans Brosamer are recorded for the first time. Based on the tremendous quantity of woodcuts, the artistic diversity and the different styles of the artist can be well recognized. The author Bodo Gotzkowsky has managed to prove the astonishing total number of 1242 book woodcuts by Brosamer.
