Description
The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. With illustrations by Phiz. By Charles, Dickens. London, Chapman and Hall, 186 Strand,1839. In-8°, tela edit. xvi, 624 pp. con ritratto e 39 tavole incise in acciaio f.t. con figure caricaturali. Rara edizione originale corredata dalle curiose illustrazioni di Phiz (Hablot Knight Browne), book illustrator and humorous artist. Browne's draught smanship was in the tradition of the Regency, verging on caricature, scratchy in execution and not always vey assurd in the penwork. (Houfe, Dictionary of British book illustrators and caricatures, p. 248). Manca al Lowndes.
