Description

SECOND AND LAST EDITION of the "Mascara Real", the greatest Spanish fete-book of the 18th century and the apex of Spanish etching of the period. Originally printed in 1764 (Palau 156971, "Magnifica publicacion.") in a very small edition, this is the second edition, with ALL TWELVE OF THE FULL-PAGE ETCHINGS (by Defehrt after Tramullas) PRINTED FROM THE ORIGINAL PLATES. Since the original edition was so small, the plates were in a perfect state of conservation when this second edition was printed, and ALL OF THE ETCHINGS ARE ABSOLUTELY BRIGHT AND SHARP. Edition limited to 150 numbered copies, all printed on extremely fine handmade Guarro wove paper. Oblong large folio (22 x 26 inches). Loose as issued in the original portfolio case with ties. BRIGHT AND FINE, WITH NO DEFECTS. Spectacular.
