MONTAIGNE (Michel de).
Essays. New edition.
Paris : Desoer, 1818. - In-8, half red morocco, spine ribbed and decorated, untrimmed (Thouvenin).
Beautiful edition printed on two columns and in very small characters, decorated with a portrait of the author in frontispiece. It was published by the masonic writer François-Henri-Stanislas de L'Aulnaye (1759-1830).
Desoer gave at the same time an edition with the same characters in 4 volumes in-18, and another in 9 volumes in-32 for the "Bibliothèque portative du voyageur".
A very nice copy bound by Thouvenin, in rare condition.
The spine is slightly faded. Some foxing.
Provenance : Robert Galoppe, with bookplate drawn by P. Collin.
