Complete with the etched title- cum-frontispiece (bound here at the end of the series) and twenty etched plates. (Focillon 583-599; see Hind p. 87.) With the plate numbers (sets before the numbers are extremely rare). Watermarks Fleur-de-lys in double circle, indicating a Roman edition. The views of the temples at Paestum are Piranesi's last great work, and he died in November 1778, having received the imprimatur for the series but shortly before it was published. Plates XIX, XX, and the title-cum- frontispiece were etched by Piranesi's son Francesco, who carried on the business, in Rome but later in Paris. The texts on the plates were always in French, the lingua franca of the era. The set is in generally good condition but for some discolouration in the upper right corners. Plate XIV has a scrape upper left centre.

Provenance:

From the library of Arthur Clarke Edwards (1859-1916) and thence by descent

Private family collection, Berkshire £5,000-£7,000

This collection, which includes some of the more splendid views of Rome and a complete set of the views of the temples at Paestum, the importance of which was finally recognised in Piranesi's day, must have been gathered together in the early 1780s, if the two plates by Filippo Morghen are indicative of the time of purchase (they could have been added later, of course). Whether the prints were loose or in another oblong binding before they were put into the present boards in the 19th century is hard to say, but the unobtrusive central folds are from drying rather than folding for binding and there is no trace of the guards on the versos which would suggest that they were removed from a folio volume (2o; much the more common housing of all Piranesi's works, including the Vedute). The binder John Lewis Barnikel (1770-1856) was active in Haverfordwest c. 1815-25 and in Pembroke c. 1830-50; he was clearly not very successful and died in Pembroke workhouse (see British Library, Database of Bookbinding; and British Book Trades Index).

Established in 1843, the firm had a cabinet making workshop in Castleford and their main gallery in John Dalton Street, Manchester, with vast furniture showrooms over three floors showing their quality pieces for sale. The firm gained a national and international reputation in the early 1860's, winning medals at the London 1862 Exhibition and the Paris 1867 Exhibition. James Lamb of Manchester became known for high quality materials and workmanship, as well as for the innovative designs created by such artists as Charles Bevan and Bruce Talbert.

James Lamb’s obituary appeared in The Journal of Decorative Art and British Decorators in 1903, it stated that his name ‘was a synonym for the best in everything that he did from 1850 – 1885, and he towered over everybody ... as a maker of high class furniture’.

1. These Terms and Conditions apply to all transactions relating to the purchase of items by a bidder (referred to as “you”) at The Pedestal Limited, trading as The Pedestal (referred to as ‘we’) in a live auction, a Timed Online Auction and in an auction after-sale.

The Terms and Conditions may not be varied unless agreed in writing in advance by one of our directors.

By registering to bid and/or bidding you accept these terms.

2. We act as agent for the seller whose identity we will not disclose, unless otherwise stated.

3. When we offer items for consignment at auction, we will usually include in the auction listing a description of the lot and an estimate of potential sale value. We may also choose to include an image or images of the lot. We offer the lot for sale in the auction as it is described in the lead line, ie. the text highlighted in bold, and not as it may be perceived to appear in any image or images which accompany the lot.

Upon request we may also supply a condition report, which will be based on a visual inspection of each lot without disassembly or further investigation of physical condition, and on information available to us at the time. All information is provided after due consideration and to the best of our knowledge and experience, but cannot be taken as a statement of fact, a guarantee or statement of value or a guarantee or statement that mechanical or electrical parts are functioning correctly or at all.

We kindly ask that condition reports be requested well in advance of the date of the auction itself. We endeavour to issue condition reports in good time but we are not able to respond accordingly if we receive a large number of condition reports in the 36 hours leading up to the date of the auction.

Please note that whilst we take every care in cataloguing furniture which has been upholstered, we offer no guarantee as to the originality or condition of the wood frame covered by fabric or upholstery.

4. All measurements provided are approximate. Colours of any image depicted in any printed catalogue, on our website or otherwise may not appear the same as colours perceived on physical inspection.

19. A lot which has been collected from our premises by you or a shipper acting on your behalf is deemed to have been delivered to you by us at the time of such collection.

20. If within 21 days of the auction the buyer gives us written notice to us that the lot is a forgery and demonstrates to our satisfaction that the lot is a forgery, provided that the lot is returned to us in the same condition as when it was sold and within a reasonable timescale notified by us, we will cancel the sale, refund the purchase price and the cost of reasonable return.

A ‘forgery’ is defined as a work created with the intent to deceive.

We may request that the buyer provides two written opinions (produced at the buyer’s cost) or recognised independent experts to evidence the assertion that the lot is a forgery. The lot should not be returned to us until we have requested the return, and the buyer does so at their own risk. We shall be entitled to investigate and consider the allegations that the lot is a forgery and to arrange inspections of the lot either at our premises or third party controlled premises if the lot has been exported from the UK. We shall endeavour to resolve the matter within a reasonable period of time and the buyer agrees to act in good faith whilst we carry out this assessment.

21. For Timed Online Auctions where lots cannot be inspected in person, if you reside mostly in the UK or the European Union and in respect of the EU Consumer Rights Directive, you have the right to cancel the purchase of a lot without cause at any time in the 14 calendar days after the lot is available for collection from The Pedestal.

We request that you notify us of your decision to cancel the purchase in the 14 calendar day period which should be sent either by post to:

The Pedestal, The Dairy, Stonor Park, Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire RG9 6HF or by email to: info@thepedestal.com

22. Lots which we believe to be covered by the CITES regulations will be marked with ¥ in our catalogue, but we are not responsible for advising you on any import/export issues including without limitation CITES or the like, and customs and import fees and the like. We recommend that you acquaint yourself with any relevant issues before bidding, as we cannot accept liability for any information which we may provide you with. If you purchase a lot requiring an export licence it is your responsibility to obtain it, and we cannot accept rescission of the sale or offer a refund if you are unable to so obtain a permit.

In certain countries local laws entitle an artist or the artist’s estate to receive a royalty when a lot created by the artist is sold, this royalty is known as ‘artist’s re-sale right’ or ARR.

If these laws apply to the lot you must pay us an additional amount equivalent to the royalty due to the artist. We will pay the royalty to the appropriate authority on the seller’s behalf.

The royalty applies if the hammer price is equal to or greater than Euro 1,000.

total royalty for any lot cannot exceed Euro 12,500.

The amount owed is calculated as follows:

for the portion of the hammer price (in Euros):

to 50,000

50,000.01 and 200,000

between 200,000.01 and 350,000

between 350,000.01 and 500,000

lower of 0.25% and 12,500 euro

using the Euro to GBP£ rate of exchange of the European Central Bank on the day of the auction.

will calculate the artist’s resale

23. Each seller warrants that they are the legal owner of the lot and/or have the unencumbered right to sell the lot at auction and to pass title to the successful bidder. The seller shall not be liable in the event of breach of this warranty for any amount greater than the hammer price of the lot in question.

We are not liable for any statements, data, information and the opinions of others nor any deterioration of the lot after collection. Our total liability for negligence, breach of statutory duty, misrepresentation or otherwise shall be limited to the hammer price of the lot in question.

We shall not be liable for any loss of profits, loss of business, goodwill, loss of anticipated savings or for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses to the fullest extent permitted by law.
