Typography Tuesday
Last week we presented a 1900 edition of The Confessions of St. Augustine with illustrations by Paul Woodroffe (1875-1954) and a title-page border designed by Laurence Housman (1865-1959), all engraved in wood by Houseman's sister Clemence Houseman (1861-1955). Another visual element in the book is the use of elaborate, wood-engraved, Arts and Crafts-style initials found throughout the book. Today we are showcasing all the initial letters used in the publication.
Their design is uncredited, but it is possible that they could have been designed by Woodroffe as he was deeply influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement. Two years after illustrating this book, Woodroffe was elected a member of the Art Workers' Guild, an organization of artist and designers associated with the ideas of William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement, and in the same year he became closely associated with Charles Robert Ashbee and his Guild of Handicraft and Essex House Press, institutions closely allied with the movement. Again, it's conjecture, but we would like to think that Clemence Houseman had a hand in engraving these initials.

3. Christ appears to St Mary Magdalene (John 20:11-18)
3. Christ appears to St Mary Magdalene (John 20:11-18)
“Mary Magdalene remained weeping outside the tomb. And as she wept, she bent down to look into the tomb, and she saw two angels in white sitting there where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and the other at the feet. They asked her, “Woman, why are you weeping?” She answered, “They have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him.” As she said this, she turned around…

Wood Engraving Wednesday
This week we present a few wood engravings by English artist, writer, and suffrage activist Clemence Houseman (1861-1955) from a 1900 edition of The Confessions of St. Augustine published in London by Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner & Co. Houseman worked from illustrations designed by British book illustrator Paul Woodroffe (1875-1954) and a title-page border designed by her brother Laurence Housman (1865-1959), with whom she was very close. Her other notable sibling was the classical scholar and poet A. E. Houseman (1859-1936).
The book was printed on Arnold and Foster's unbleached handmade paper and printed by Charles Whittingham and Co. of the Chiswick Press and was formerly owned by renowned book collector and philanthropist Estelle Doheny, and bears her bookplate. The book was full bound in brown, tooled, Morocco goatskin with patterned endsheets by the notable London bookbinders Sangorski & Sutcliffe for the J. W. Robinson Company, a southern California department store company which maintained a book department. Our copy is another donation from the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick.
