Book Description

12mo, [24], 249, [26] p., + 140, [22] p., + 65, [3] p., engraved half-title with standing woman holding a treasure chest and ring above a woman with dog stooping into two bowls of rings in a classical background, engraved title device of a flying bird of prey trailing a motto ribbon above an urban landscape. 19th century bespoke binding (extremities rubbed), possibly English in the cathedral style and with small binders initials E.V. or C.V.. Ornately gilt with domed spine, banded at both ends with flower and inter-linked diamond design, rectangular spine panel with scrollwork outer border and central titling with three inter-linked rings above and below and two ovals with central fleurons and bisected with arcs at the compass points, boards alike with repeated scrollwork outer border and central repeated framework design of gothic arches and fleurons, inner dentelles, edges stained red and sprinkled blue.
