Cranford Collection [DVD] [2007-2009]

Product Information

The dining table extends from 140cm to 180cm with a beautifully designed butterfly leaf that sits underneath the table top.

Rather than being named after its first volume, Old Christmas , or the first designer (Randolph Caldecott illustrated the first two titles), the series derives its moniker from the fourth volume released, Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell, which was published in 1891 and illustrated by Hugh Thomson. Jonathan Swift, Travels into several remote nations of the world by Lemuel Gulliver, first a surgeon, and then a captain of several ships (1894).Jane Eyre and Rochester Proposal Scene Shirt Design: Charlotte Brontë tells Jane's timeless tale of self-discovery, purpose, and love. A large number of these are by women artists including Rebecca Warren, Bridget Riley, and Carla Accardi.

This cover design was reused from the UK edition by George Allen, and it was then published the following year in the UK by Macmillan as part of the core series, with a different cover design.

All volumes in the series are crown octavo (8vo) in size, presenting a compact yet visually appealing format that was popular during that era. The beautiful illustrations are by John Lockwood Kipling, father of Rudyard, and Temple’s notes provide helpful historical and cultural information. Often mistaken for the Cranford Series, these derivative-style volumes may be of a slightly different size, but they possess a similar charm and appeal ( particularly the Dobson collections), so I have included a good many of these titles in a separate list below as they form part of the broader landscape of these delightful late 19th-century publishers bindings and mingle attractively together on a shelf.To enable personalised advertising (like interest-based ads), we may share your data with our marketing and advertising partners using cookies and other technologies. For example, Louise Chignac curated a number of public viewings of videos from the collection with partners, such as Lux, Goldsmiths, or David Roberts Foundation. Initially, the books were not marketed by Macmillan as a cohesive series until around 17 years after its inception and the publication of the fourth volume.
