A rare set including all three series of Ackermann’s fascinating record of fashion in Georgian England. The costume plates run throughout all three series, forming a beautiful and valuable record of the fashions of the period. Other series were later reprinted as separate works: Papworth’s Select Views of London (1815); Papworth’s Rural Residences (1818); Shoberl’s Picturesque Tour from Geneva to Milan (1820); Combe’s Journal of Sentimental Travels in the Southern Provinces of France (1821) and Ackermann’s Views of Country Seats (1830). The Repository also includes examples of Ackermann’s first forays into lithography. Abbey Life 212; Colas 2541; Tooley 8.

40 volumes, octavo (234 x 144mm). Engraved titles, general indexes to each series, and approx. 1490 plates, some folding, including hand-colored aquatints and lithographs, fashion plates, furniture designs, allegorical woodcut plates with mounted silk, cotton and lace fabric samples, uncolored or color-printed plates of designs for bank-notes and playing-cards, portraits, etc. (occasional soiling, toning and spotting). Modern green half morocco gilt over marbled boards (lightly rubbed).
