Newport and its EnvironsGeoffrey Champlin Mason, 1848MASON, Geoffrey Champlin (1820-1894). Newport and its Environs. Newport, RI: Charles E. Hammett, 1848. The first view book of Newport, Rhode Island. Mason was a prominent Newport architect who helped to found the Newport Historical Society. Upon returning from several years study in Europe, he "prepared the drawings for his first published work, Newport and its environs. It was designated 'Volume I,' although there is no evidence that a second volume ever materialized. All of the views bear Mason's signature and tend to emphasize—with their attention to cows, ducks, sheep, streams, and fishing—the pastoral quality of Newport's surroundings" (Deák). This work is very rare at auction, with only one recorded since the 1950s. Sabin 45442; Deák, Picturing America 558 (title vignette counted among the plates). Oblong folio (306 x 420mm). Lithographed title with vignette of Fort Dumpling, 11 tinted lithographic plates, each plate including title with leaf of explanatory text (spotting, vignette slightly abraded, dedication leaf creased). Original gilt-stamped publisher's cloth (rebacked, some staining). Custom box.
