Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Hand-List of the Drawings and Engravings Illustrative of the Life of Shakespeare, Preserved at Hollingbury Copse, Near Brighton It is very difficult to meet with pictorial illustrations of the Life of Shakespeare that belong to even a small antiquity. With the exception of two or three found in periodicals, and which are sufficiently common, any of the kind which were executed more than seventy years ago are of exceedingly rare occurrence. The Bodleian Library, so rich in English topography, has none; while in that enormous literary warehouse, the British Museum, there are hardly any of the slightest interest. There are, indeed, only two large and important collections of drawings and engravings illustrative of Shakespearean biography. One of these, that now preserved at the Birth-Place, was formed by the late Mr. W. O. Hunt and myself in years gone by, when we ransacked Stratford-upon-Avon and its neighbourhood for every relic of the kind. The other, that now at Hollingbury Copse, is the result of purchases from other localities. Each collection is, at present, of unique interest, and is likely to remain so. It is not probable that another, of equal value to either, could now be formed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
