URING  the  year  1877,  the  Caxton 
Celebration  was  held  in  London,  and 
a  mojl  extraordinary  collection  of 
early  printed  Books  was  exhibited  at 
South  Kenfington.  One  of  the  ex- 
hibits  conjijled  of  a  volume  of  imprefjions  and  the 
blocks  themf elves,  the  originals  of  which  have  been 
ufed  for  the  reductions  which  illujlrate  this  Volume. 

"This  very  curious  feries  of  original  blocks  were 
pur  chafed  about  fixty  years  fince  at  Nuremberg,  by 
the  late  Mr.  Sams,  of  Darlington.  They  cannot 
be  recognifed  as  belonging  to  any  printed  book,  and 
the  Art  iff  s  mark,  which  appears  on  the  yjth 
plate,  is  unknown  to  any  Bibliographer.  M. 
Passavant,  a  wellknown  writer  on  the  fubjedt, 


does  not  appear  to  have  met  with  it  in  his  re- 
fear  ches.  It  is  therefore  probable  that  the  blocks 
were  thrown  ajide  and  never  ufed,  after  they  had 
been  engraved,  till  a  lapfe  of  nearly  four  centuries. 

They  form  a  kind  of  si  Biblia  Pauperum," 
illuflrative  of  the  Life,  Miracles,  Parables,  and 
Sayings  of  our  Saviour,  and,  occafionally,  typical 
fubjedls  from  the  Old  Teflament  are  introduced. 
There  are  altogether  seventy-eight  fubjeSis  repre- 
fented  on  the  thirty-eight  plates. 

A  date  is  engraved  on  two  of  the  blocks,  but  it 
would  feem  that  the  figures  are  tranfpofed,  for 
Authorities  at  the  Britifh  Mufeum  agree  in  reading 
the  date  as  certainly  1540,  but  fay  it  is  difficult  to 
refer  the  artijlic  compofition  to  that  period,  as  it 
clearly  belongs  to  the  end  of  the  previous  century. 

When  thefe  blocks  came  into  our  poffeffion  in 
1877  we  found  them  remarkably  clean,  free  from 
figns  of  wear,  but  extenfively  worm-eaten ;  in 
one  or  two  cafes  pieces  of  the  furface  coming  away 
in  the  hand.  The  wood  is  of  a  foft  kind,  quite 
unlike  that  ufed  at  the  prefent  day,  and  although 
the  Jlyle  of  execution  is  certainly  not  equal  through- 
out the  whole  feries,  the  kind  of  material  ufed,  and 
the  peculiar  Jlyle  of  cutting,  all  go  to  indicate 
their  great  antiquity. 


folio  to* 

Immediately  after  the  Exhibition  referred  to, 
thefe  blocks  were  ufed  in  the  production  of  "A  New 
Biblia  Pauperum,"  a  Memorial  Volume,  of  which 
2 75  C0Pies  were  ijfaed  at  the  price  of  One  Guinea. 
The  edition  was  at  once  abforbed  by  the  fubfcribers 
and  general  public^  and  to-day  commands  a 
confderable  premium.  The  very  char  act erijlic 
Preface,  kindly  contributed  by  the  late  Very  Rev. 
Arthur  Penrhyn  Stanley,  D.D.,  Dean  of 
Weftminfter,  for  that  Volume,  appears  in  the 
following  pages.  The  profits  of  the  Volume  were 
given  to  the  Printers*  Penfion  Corporation. 

We  now  prefent  The  Smaller  Biblia  Pauperum, 
which,  though  reduced  in  fize,  faithfully  retains  all 
the  peculiarities  of  the  original  Blocks,  while  at 
the  fame  time  we  have  in  other  refpedts  added  to 
the  interejl  of  the  Volume. 

Cf)e  Cert  has  been  feledled  from  Wiclifs 
tranjlation  of  the  New  Tejlament,  as  being  the 
only  Englijh  Verfion  commonly  known  at  the  period 
when  thefe  blocks  were  originally  engraved. 

Cfje  TBorDers  ano  ©rnaments  which  embellifli 

the  letterprefs  pages  are  exact  fac-fimiles  of  thofe 
ufed  in  a  Book  of  Hours,  now  in  the  Lambeth 
Palace  Library,  printed  by  T.  Kerver,  in  Paris, 
1525,  and  which y  by  the  kind  permifjion  of  the 


late  Archbijhop  of  Canterbury,  we  have  been  able 
to  reproduce, 

Cf)e  Papet  has  been  fpecially  made  by  hand9 
in  Holland \  by  precifely  the  ancient  method,  and  of 
a  texture  and  colour  as  nearly  as  pojjible  to  imitate 
that  ufed  in  the  fifteenth  century. 

WOZ  IBinBtng  is  in  accordance  with  the  Jlyle  of 
the  period,  the  defign  having  been  taken  from  an 
early  book  in  the  Britifh  Mufeum. 

We  have  thus  endeavoured  to  produce  a  very 
perfeB  reprefentation  of  a  Book  which  nearly  four 
hundred  years  ago  may  have  ferved  the  people  of 
that  day  in  place  of  our  now  widely  diffeminated 
Bible.

Prefatory  Notice 

BY  THE  LATE 

Very  Rev.  ARTHUR  PENRHYN  STANLEY,  d.d., 

Dean  of  Weftminfter. 


HAVE  been  requefted  by  Meflrs. 
Unwin  to  fay  a  few  words  by 
way  of  Preface  to  this  interefting 
work,  which  confifting  of  the  rude 
attempts,  at  the  beginning  of  the 
art  of  Printing,  to  diffeminate  by 
pictures  the  truths  fo  foon  to  be  diffufed  far  more 
widely  by  typography,  was  fitly  called  the  <c  Biblia 
Pauperum,"  the  Bible  of  the  Poor.  The  connection 
of  Caxton's  prefs  with  the  precincts  of  Weftminfter 
Abbey  has  often  fuggefted  the  coincidence  of  the 
Book  and  the  Church  ;  the  art  of  the  printing  of  the 


Book,  as  Victor  Hugo  obferved,  coming  into  exiftence 
at  the  moment  when  the  great  age  of  the  building  of 
Churches  was  pafling  away,  fo  that,  in  his  forcible 
language,  it  was  {aid,  <c  This  will  kill  that — the  Book 
will  kill  the  Church ; "  or,  as  we  might,  in  a  kindlier 
fpirit,  exprefs  it,  "  the  Church  has  given  birth  to  the 
Book."  In  like  manner  thefe  Antique  Woodcuts, 
dating  only  feven  years  before  the  firft  appearance  of 
Caxton's  firft  printed  Englifti  Book,  are  a  fitting 
memorial  of  the  epoch,  commemorated  by  the  Caxton 
Celebration,  when  the  "  Bible  of  the  Poor  "  for  the 
laft  time  appeared  in  the  guife  of  pictures,  before  it 
pafled  into  cheap,  multifarious,  illimitable  Bibles, 
which  mould  permeate  through  all  clafles  far  more 
effectually  than  any  pictorial  reprefentations.  It  is 
exactly  the  point  of  meeting,  the  crofting,  as  it  were, 
of  the  two  arts — the  image  pafting  into  fubftance — 
the  later  education  of  thought  and  fpirit  taking  the 
place  of  the  earlier  education  of  fenfe  and  figure.

246  PRINTING  —  Biblia  Pauperum.  Containing 
38  wood  cuts  illustrating  the  life,  parables  and 
miracles  of  our  blessed  Lord  and  Saviour,  Jesus 
Christ.  New  York,  1885.  Edition  limited  to  375 
numbered  copies.  Printed  in  London  in  1877. 
At  that  time  there  were  exhibited  some  curiously 
strange  wood  cuts  belonging  to  no  recognizable 
printed  book.  These  apparently  were  printed  at 
Nurnberg  and  never  reprinted.  The  present  edi- 
tion is  a  reprint  of  these  blocks,  together  with 
selections  from  Whitecliff  Bible  printed  in  black 
letter  and  enclosed  within  a  decorative  wood  cut 
border  intended  to  provide  a  text  for  these 
curious  plates.  The  book  measures  8x6.  It  is 
bound  in  vellum  in  the  antique  style  and  has 
metal  clasps,  the  upper  one  of  which  is  some- 
what imperfect.  An  interesting  example  of  print- 
ing/A fascinating  addition  to  early  book  illus- 
tration. A  desirable  item.  15.00
