GILLOT (Claude). COLLECTION DES EAUX-FORTES POUR L'ILLUSTRATION DES FABLES DE LA MOTTE (Paris, 1719). 100 vignettes bound in 1 volume in-8 oblong, brown calf, spine decorated (period binding).
A very valuable collection accompanied by a handwritten table giving circulation information. A typed note indicates: "... We have here the separate prints of this illustration, on a very fine paper, print prior to the publication of the book (Several copperplates are before the signatures or before their reduction). This suite is missing 3 vignettes engraved by Coypel and Simonneau; two plates have tears and there are some stains.
It is nevertheless a very valuable collection of which only a few copies are known and which belonged to POPULUS, BIBLIOGRAPH OF GILLOT ". Worn binding.
