12. DESIGN 1, 1929. 101 x 38.
The first design for A Song about Tsar Ivan Vasilyevitch, his young body-guard, and the valiant merchant, Kalashnikov, this illustration appears on the verso of the title page. In the book it is printed in black on grey paper with an over-printing of a red border and a red strip highlighting the front of the throne. Nash's semi-abstract design of a throne complements the opening verses of the poem in which the Tsar is holding court with his bodyguards. $125.
14. DESIGN 3,1929. 38 x 101. $130.
20. DESIGN WITH STEPS, c. 1923. 34 x 38. $115.
22. MEADOW GARDEN, c. 1928. 89 x 138.
It is tempting to suggest that this design was conceived as part of the Abd-er-Rhaman in Paradise suite. Although no precise textual equivalent can be found, the text is full of descriptions of celestial gardens which could have inspired Nash's design. Its horizontal format is at variance with the three published large illustrations, but it is comparable in size. The rather florid cutting is also in keeping with this group of engravings, the treatment of the waterfall in Paradise is similar to the cutting used here. $165.
24. BRYONY AND CONVOLVULUS. 38 x 83. $165.

In 1807 Turner began his great enterprise of publishing a series of 100 plates known as the Liber Studiorum, inspired, in part, by Claude's own studio record, Liber veritatis (begun in 1635 and continued until his death in 1682). Turner's aim was to document the great variety and range of landscape; some of the subjects were taken from his own existing paintings and watercolours. He employed several engravers, although he supervised the work at every stage, etched some of the plates himself, and made innumerable preparatory drawings. The publication was issued in parts consisting of five plates each and covering all the styles of landscape composition, including historical, architectural, mountainous, pastoral, and marine. The first part appeared in June 1807 and the last in 1819, when Turner evidently lost interest in the project and abandoned it after the publication of 71 plates.
Frank Short worked on the uncompleted Liber Studiorumthrougout his career, completing 47 etched and mezzotinted plates.
