Description

FIRST EDITION of this important, early, and imaginative study of Verlaine and his artistic milieu. ONE OF ONLY TWELVE LARGE-PAPER COPIES PRINTED ON FINE ARCHES LAID PAPER (the only large-paper issue). The other copies of this book were printed on cheap wood-pulp paper, and are crumbling into dust by now. Numerous illustrations, including a frontispiece woodcut portrait of Verlaine after Carriere and four full-page plates. From the collection of Luis de Caralt, a Barcelona publisher who was Spain's greatest collector of modern illustrated books, with his bookplate. 8vo. Original wraps. Wraps somewhat worn, internally clean, uncut, and almost entirely unopened. A very good copy of an extremely rare book.
