Yeats' The Wild Swans at Coole w/Rockwell Kent

Item Details

Description

Heading:
Author: Yeats, William Butler
Title: The Wild Swans at Coole
Place Published: New York
Publisher:Macmillan Co.
Date Published: 1919
Description:

(8vo0, pale blue pictorial boards decorated in black. First American Edition.

George R. M. Ewing Jr's. illustrated bookplate, designed by Rockwell Kent on the front pastedown, and Ewing's ownership signature at the top of the front free endpaper. A solid copy of one of the poet's finest collections. Cover design by Sturge Moore.

The George R. M. Ewing Jr. bookplate is part of a collection created by Elizabeth Mast Hyatt to honor famed opera and concert singer Annie Louise Cary (1841-1921), who was born in the town of Wayne. A library built in the town in 1938 was named the Cary Memorial Library, and subsequently the bookplates became part of the library collections.

Artist Rockwell Kent, the bookplate's creator, spent five years on Monhegan Island, painting the landscape. His long career as a painter, draftsman and writer included the creation of over 160 bookplates.

The Latin quotation on this bookplate reads "Homo sum humani nihil a me alienum esse puto," translated as "I am a human being. I regard nothing of human concern as foreign to me."

In a letter to Elizabeth Hyatt, George Ewing's father wrote "It might be of interest to know that Mr. Kent designed the book-plate around my son's strongest hobbies - the theatre and books."

Condition

Top board lightly bowed, light rubbing to extremities, black mark to top edge; very good.
