8vo (165 x 110 mm). Engraved portrait frontispiece of Harvey by William Faithorne, errata leaf at end. Rebacked contemporary calf, titled in ink on fore-edge, modern cloth chemise and slipcase. Corners bumped, armorial bookplate to verso of title page (Clan Home), spotting throughout.

FIRST EDITION IN ENGLISH with the often lacking portrait of the author. \"Harvey considered this to be the culminating work of his life, and more significant than de Motu Cordis. ... Harvey was among the first to disbelieve the erroneous doctrine of the \'preformation\' of the foetus; he maintained that the organism derives from the ovum by the gradual building up and aggregation of its parts. The chapter on midwifery in this book is the first work on that subject to be written by an Englishman\" (Garrison-Morton-Norman 467, 1651 edition in Latin). Keynes 43; Russell 384; Wing H-1083.

The subject of the painting always drives from the previous painting, hence there is no reason for inspiration. One tries again, keeps on trying to do what he has already done…
Piero Dorazio

Of all the great first and second generation 美国 painters I have known since 1953 (the third generation is not yet discernable), Kenneth Noland is a truly singular case.

He is from North Carolina and Washington, i.e. the provinces, rather than the artistic milieu of New York.

[...]In the 1950s and 1960s I never understood whether some artistic circles in the Metropolis or certain isolated artists like Kenneth Noland and Morris Louis, Georgia O\'Keeffe in New Mexico or Andrew Wyeth in Pennsylvania were more provincial. Although isolated, Louis and Noland were already the most modern of modern 美国 painters in the early 1960s. They were a surprising revelation when discovered and presented by the critic Clement Greenberg at the 法国 and Co. Gallery in New York. Their exhibitions in that gallery between \'59 and \'60 remain by far the most exciting of the decade.

Kenneth Noland\'s painting has nothing to do, therefore, with all the clichés of 美国 painting disseminated here by European critics who have framed all expressions into schools or categories or groups (Action Painting, New Dada, Abstract expressionism, Pop Art, Minimal Art etc.) letting what were actually the most creative values and personalities slip through their fingers. [...]

Ken Noland established himself, from the late 1960s and 1970s, among those few artists defined as \'Colour field painters\' or \'Post Painterly Abstraction\' not as a group but rather as a trend: Helen Frankenhaler, Morris Louis, Jules Olitsky, Friedel Dzubas, Larry Poons. There was a convergence of interests among these painters for colour as an element that defines large spaces and long periods of time for the observer, who is induced to meditate because he is immersed in the rhythm of the lines and chromatic masses of a truly abstract painting, devoid of any allusion or reference to the real, the metaphysical or the subjective temperament. Painting that refers on the one hand to the decorative character of early Matisse, and on the other to the secular spirit of Constructivism. Among those painters, Noland was always the one who, with tenacity and clarity of purpose, was best able to sublimate \'pure visibility\' into a highly lyrical personal poetics. His nature as a colourist and his technique inspired his constant formal research into surface-colour and material-colour relationships. [...]

In these works chromatic fantasy and refined sensitivity, arranged in a precise structural order, bring the brushstrokes and pictorial matter to life in decisive and delicate spaces and lights and rhythms, expressing a constant reflection on the inevitable characteristics of reality. Constancy and appearance, the negative and the positive, fullness and emptiness; our gaze is entertained and delighted by this repertoire of perception, emotion and mind.

DOSTOEVSKY CARTE-DE-VISITE INSCRIBED TO ALEXANDER HERZEN.:DOSTOEVSKY, FYODOR. 1821-1881. Photograph signed and inscribed [in Russian] to Alexander Herzen, albumen print carte-de-visite full length portrait by M.B. Tulinov, Petersburg, 1861, 105 x 65 mm, inscribed by Dostoevsky in Russian to the verso, \"Alexander Ivanovich Herzen in memory of our meeting in London. Fyodor Dostoyevsky 8 July/20 July 1862,\" minor stain to verso.
Provenance: Alexander Ivanovich Herzen; to daughter Olga Aleksandrovna [Herzen] Monod; by descent.
Publication: For a discussion of the photograph, see Volgin, Igor. \"Introduction\" to The Dostoevsky Archive (1997), p 21.

Pull quote: \"Herzen awaits his readers in the future. Far above the heads of the present crowd, he transmits his thoughts to those who will be able to comprehend them.\" – Leo Tolstoy, 1905.

VERY RARE CARTE DE VISITE PHOTOGRAPH OF FYODOR DOSTOEVSKY PRESENTED TO ALEXANDER HERZEN IN REMEMBRANCE OF THEIR 1862 MEETING IN LONDON: A TREMENDOUSLY IMPORTANT ASSOCIATION BETWEEN TWO OF THE LEADING INTELLECTUALS OF THE 19TH-CENTURY.

Alexander Herzen was one of the most important and influential Russian writers and thinkers of the 19th-century. called the \"father of Russian socialism,\" he had a profound influence on late-19th century Russian writers, including Fyodor Dostoevsky. Born illegitimately to a wealthy Russian landowner, Herzen became a dissident and critic of the Russian feudal system. Of Herzen, Tolstoy said he had never met a man \"with so rare a combination of scintillating brilliance and depth.\" His writings, including From the Other Shore (1848) and those appearing in his influential publications of the 1850s-60s The Bell and the Polestar, would help mold a generation of Russian writing and thought.

Herzen and Dostoevsky met for the first time in Russia in 1846, following Dostoevsky\'s comment in a letter to his brother that Herzen and Goncharov stand as \"the most remarkable\" of his rivals; Herzen\'s recollection of the meeting was less than effusive, however: \"I can\'t say he made a particularly present impression.\" Their second meeting occurred when Dostoevsky visited Herzen in London in July of 1862, of which this photograph is a memento. During the 1850s and early 1860s, visits to the emigree Herzen by Russian writers and intellectuals were something of a right of passage, and Dostoevsky\'s visit followed right on the heels of Turgenev. This series of meetings profoundly affected Dostoevsky and his work, and is clearly acknowledged in his Winter Notes which he wrote later that year, exhibiting a clear debt to Herzen\'s own writings. Dostoevsky, along with Solzhenitsyn, acknowledged the formative influence of Herzen on his work, and Herzen would also appear in composite in a number of Dostoevsky\'s characters throughout his career. Herzen, however, noted, rather condescendingly, \"Dostoevsky was here yesterday—he is a naïve, not entirely lucid, but a very dear person. He believes enthusiastically in the Russian people.\"

The two towering figures would meet again on a steamship from Naples to Livorno the following year, where Dostoevsky was travelling with his mistress Polina Suslova. According to Suslova\'s diaries (as published in The Dostoevsky Archives), Dostoevsky took pains to hide their relationship from Herzen, introducing her vaguely as a family member, and even encouraged her to arrange a visit with Herzen\'s son in Paris that Winter. After they parted, Dostoevsky became angry with her over a photograph of her he had seen at Herzen\'s, which she had given at an earlier date. In 1865, Dostoevsky wrote to Herzen imploring him for a loan, and became peevish when Herzen did not immediately respond. By the late 1860s Dostoevsky would disparage Herzen, somewhat unfairly, as a \"Westernizer,\" leading to his more severe criticism of Herzen in his Writer\'s Diary.

Herzen was one of the most complex and brilliant figures of the 19th-century, and was largely responsible for assimilating western ideas into Russian thought, while still maintaining his advocacy for the freedom of the Russian serf.

In reality, the two writers/thinkers shared a great deal in their outlook: both asserted the importance of the individual, and the folly of the search for a unified teleological system, cutting against the grain of their mid-19th century contemporaries. While Herzen was embraced by Lenin, identified as the \"father of Russian socialism,\" Herzen\'s socialism was a different breed, \"Centralization may do a great deal for order and for various public undertakings, but it is incompatible with freedom. It easily brings a nation to the position of a well-tended flock or a pack of hounds cleverly kept in order by a huntsman.\" Lenin regarded Herzen\'s focus on freedom as a shortcoming of his bourgeois roots. During the 20th-century Russian-British philosopher Isaiah Berlin came across Herzen\'s writings and recognized the prescience of Herzen\'s thought. It was Berlin, who reestablished Herzen\'s influence, agreeing with and amplifying his idea that the pursuit of \"a perfect society\" invariably leads to blood.

The present photograph was taken by Mikhail Borisovich Tulinov (1823–1889) in Petersburg in 1861. Any period photograph of Dostoevsky is rare, and moreso inscribed. We trace two inscribed photographs at auction in the last 40 years. However, we find no record of an inscribed photograph of similar substance and importance in the historical record. An incredible, and incredibly rare, Dostoevsky item tying together two of the greatest thinkers and writers of the 19th-century.
