First edition, one of 150 copies. Large 4to 288x225mm. pp. [10], 147, [1 errata], 4pp adverts. 55 lithographed plates. Original green cloth, red morocco label to spine, lettered in gilt. Corners worn, spine somewhat faded and with tears to head and foot. Stain on lower cover. Internally very good with some slight spotting and foxing in places.

The lithographs are the work of Charles Hullmandel who came to England as a child when his father, a German musician in Paris, fled revolutionary Paris in 1790.

He was a leading figure in the development of lithography, mastering the technique of reproducing tonal gradations, a skill evident in the attractive prints collected in this rare book.…
