Erstausgabe
Hardcover. 13 pages in text. 31 x 26 cm. Thirty-eight engraved plates, sepia aquatints. First published 1795: "These designs were among the earliest of the cottage and villa books which became so popular during the first quarter of the nineteenth century." [see: COLVIN, p.642]. ABBEY LIFE 48. ARCHER 259.2. "The title of Plaw's book recalls the long-standing ideal of the English country estate as a place of rural retirement.in addition to several designs for fences and ha-has, he illustrated a wide variety of rustic and picturesque structures.Plaw was the first practicing British architect to publish a detailed design for an entire village (Plate 33).Plaw's influence was more widespread than his practice. He was, for example, the first British architect to recommend the use of pise, or rammed earth, in building cottages.Plaw helped establish several important Romantic alternatives to the prevailing Palladian canons of architectural design." Text provides detailed descriptions of each plate. One plate toned. 18 pages in text. 31 x 26 cm. First edition. Forty-one engraved plates, sepia aquatints. Some plates with plans to scale. COLVIN p.642. ."these were among the earliest of the cottage and villa books which became so popular during the first quarter of the 19th century." Plaw emigrated to Prince Edward island, Canada in 1810 where he designed some buildings. ABBEY LIFE 49. 29 pages in text. 31 x 28 cm. Engraved title, twenty plates, 12 sepia aquatints, 8 engraved, first plate is an etching. First and only edition. COLVIN p.75 notes he was not a sensitive architect as his designs illustrate; however; the concept that the picturesque is best found in vernacular architecture makes this an interesting book. ABBEY LIFE 4. Contemporary brown calf-backed spine and marbled boards, armorial bookplate, spine lack 3 centimeters at head. Very good. 3 vols in one Second edition, First edition, First edition.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. 2nd Edition. ORNAMENTAL ENGLISH COUNTRY ARCHITECTURE Royal 4to. pp. [4], 13, [1] + 38 leaves of plates, 2 folding ll. of bookseller s catalogue of architecture books tipped-in at rear. 38 charming aquatints, each with tissue guard, of gates, paddocks, plans, dog kennels, pavilions and various rural ornamental buildings. Most edges untrimmed, blank margins somewhat foxed and occasionally dusty to plates, a little toning. A good copy in modern half calf over original marbled boards, spine gilt. Second edition of this attractive work on architectural designs for the embellishment of rural houses, with 38 fresh aquatints of fences, cottages, poultry houses, gates, paddocks, pavilions, fishing bridges, shooting lodges and even a dog kennel. It set a new style for architectural books with aquatint designs in a picturesque landscape. In the late C18 and early C19 the growing middle class became a ready market for books of picturesque designs for modest cottages and villas suitable for country retreats , resorts and suburbs. Many authors addressed their books directly to potential clients (Archer, p.21). John Plaw (1745-1820) was active as an architect in the 1780s and 90s exhibiting his drawings at the Royal Academy of Arts and author of illustrated books focused on rural buildings, with a preference for classical circular designs. He was the first British architect to employ aquatint as a means of book illustration , from 1785, a technique that greatly expanded the available range of tones and textures for illustrating buildings and scenery (Archer, pp.31, 107). First published in 1795, this work begins with an explanation of the plates, specifying the clients and location for which these buildings or ornaments were produced, the practical reasons for Plaw s designs, and the way in which they were built. The preface provides a short account of the new method of building Walls for Cottages, &c. as practised in France , by which walls are made of dry earth beaten together in a mould; this Plaw considered a complementary method to the techniques for mud-walls used in Devonshire, where he worked. The dog kennels, for Lt. Col. Thornton s fox-hounds, formed an encampment for his spaniels and pointers on an eminence, in a stately grove of oaks, [ ] which would have a very picturesque effect in the park . Unexpected for an English country location is the design for American Cottages, i.e., double cottages built on the plan and in the style of some in America , where Plaw would later relocate. These Plaw saw in Kent and added them to his work for their extreme singularity . The last two leaves, tipped-in, contain a long bookseller s catalogue for Taylor s Architectural Library, with price, size, available deluxe copies and publisher s binding. Plaw set the model for villa and cottage pattern books that became a feature of architectural publishing in England for the next fifty years (Millard, 57). ESTC N9750; Archer, 259.2. Not in BAL.

A charmingly illustrated collection of popular works on country cottage and smaller country house architecture and landscaping, all published c.1800 with a total of 114 elegant aquatints. In the late C18 and early C19 the growing middle class became a ready market for books of picturesque designs for modest cottages and villas suitable for country retreats , resorts and suburbs. Many authors addressed their books directly to potential clients (Archer, p.21). David Laing (1774 1856), pupil of Soane, famously oversaw the building of the New Customs House in London, which, after only a couple of years, started showing cracks and eventually collapsed. Before this event, which ruined his career, he devoted himself to private houses, Hints of Dwellings being inspired by his practice. Here, he focuses on country cottages, farm-houses and villas, with the odd excursion into town houses, providing illustrations of façades with lawns and plans. He was aware many gentlemen reading his work would wonder about estimates and expenses, which he refused to put on paper (to avoid Error and false Conclusions ), adding he would be happy to answer specific private enquiries. In this work, Laing suggested that the character of a dwelling should suit the needs of the inhabitant s social situation , e.g., luxury and display in grand villas (Archer, pp.50-1). John Plaw (1745-1820) was active in the 1780s and 90s, as an architect exhibiting his drawings at the Royal Academy of Arts and author of illustrated books focused on rural buildings, with a preference for classical circular designs. He was the first British architect to employ aquatint as a means of book illustration , from 1785, a technique that greatly expanded the available range of tones and textures for illustrating buildings and scenery (Archer, pp.31, 107). Sketches for Country Houses , here in its first edition, is entirely devoted to country houses, villas and rural dwellings, calculated for persons of moderate income, and for comfortable retirement . It also includes designs for cottages which may be constructed of the simplest materials . Plaw listed the cost of building material from bricks to lime, sand, types of timber and labour at the end of his preface. I: BAL 1715; Archer 170.1.
