Beautiful proofs on watermarked laid paper, and on vellum for the frontispiece. Dimensions: about 31 x 37 cm according to the plates [the sheet: 49,3 x 61,5 cm]. We enclose three additional sets, also on laid paper. The proofs are uniformly yellowed with some foxing and/or spotting and surface dusting. One of the covers with some creasing.
