GOYA Y LUCIENTES, Francisco de.- Los proverbios: coleccion de diez y ocho laminas inventadas y grabadas al agua fuerte / por Don Francisco Goya.- Madrid: Publicala la Rl. [Real] Academia Nobles Artes de San Fernando, 1864.- 1 f. litografada: 18 gravuras; 31x43 cm.- E. Complete set of one of the reissues of this series, published on an unidentified date, from the original copper plate matrices, no complete set stamped in the artist's lifetime (1746-1828) is known. Album originally published in 1864 by the Real Academia de Nobles Artes de San Fernando, shortly after acquiring the respective plaques, containing the 18 proofs of the hitherto known engravings, numbered from 1 to 18, in an unjustified print run of 300 copies. This one features the same lithographed title page as the 1864 edition, but without a watermark and includes apparently non-contemporary cellophane separators. The matrices, engraved in etching and aquatint, sometimes with drypoint retouching, do not show any date. Copy with occasional light stains or foxing. Non-contemporary binding, full sheepskin, very dehydrated, with damask silk endpapers and elaborate gold-decorated doublure, signed “Enc. da Biblioteca Nacional 1928” (on the back cover) and “Dourador A. Pinheiro” (on the back cover). Palau, 106 558. Augusto L. Mayer (Francisco de Goya), p. 120-123 and 276-281 (V, nos. 1 to 22). Tomás Harris (Goya: engravings and lithographs), p. 193-198 and fig. 248 to 269.
