Half-bound in marbled calf leather, complete work in three parts for XVI-738- 18 pages in continuous pagination, dimensions 24 x 16 cm. At the end of the book are attached 20 folded plates, not consecutively numbered but complete, plus 4 tables. On the first antique white flyleaf a thin, inconsequential corner notch on the plates, as highlighted in the photos. White pages, foxing almost non-existent, very white stock. Worn spine with hinges partially open; the work certainly deserves a replacement given its preciousness and rarity. Not easy to obtain.
