Library of Amateurs, A. Ferroud - F. Ferroud successors, 1904, in 4° (19 x 27.7 cm), 46 pages, folded cover. Remarkable compositions by Georges Rochegrosse etched by E. Decisy, i.e. 24 engravings, an engraved frontispiece, one on the title page repeated on the first cover, a header, 20 inset engravings, and a engraved cul-de-lamp. The texts are in different gold frames finely and richly illustrated in an Art Nouveau style. Each engraving is protected by a snake.

First illustrated edition of this symbolist collection, and first irge of the superb compositions of Rochegrosse, the adopted son of Banville. "One of the best illustrations of the artist" (Carteret).
Discharge in flyleaves as usual for this large format, a copy of great freshness by the way.
