Description

Late-19th-century French cloth binding with a red cover decorated in green and white floral motifs, a central gilt title and ornamentation, and a matching floral-decorated spine.

Several full-page black-and-white engravings depict period costume and rural French scenes. Slightly larger than typical antique books, it presents well for bookshelf display or still-life photography.
