1822 FORE-EDGE PAINTING Book of Common Prayer Church of England Oxford BEAUTIFUL

                                       

A rare printing of the Church of England’s ‘Book of Common Prayer’ printed by Clarendon Press in 1822. This popular devotional and supplement to the Bible was a critical part of the early English Church liturgy and doctrine. However, this example is entirely unique. This beautiful tome is bound in fine, Moroccan red leather and features a fascinating fore-edge painting of an English cathedral, perhaps even Fountains Abbey.

 

This example also includes a metered version of the Psalms of David by Nicolas Brady and Nahum Tate.
