The French Aretin, by a member of the Ladies'... - Lot 312 - Marie-Saint Germain

In-12 of 22 leaves, 50 pages, half Russian red leather, gilt fishnet binding around the maroquined brick paper boards, smooth spine decorated, gilt edges (period binding). The first part is quite complete, decorated with 18 engravings, one of which is a frontispiece. The same cannot be said of the second part: Les Épices de Vénus, ou pièces diverses du même académicien. The figure that usually illustrates it is missing, as are pages 13 to 38. The set of plates is based on those of Borel and Elluin. Lemonnyer 1-262, P.C. 31.a.5, Pia 87, Dutel A-106.
