[COSTUME]. Album containing 24 fine hand-colored aquatints and lithographs, mounted, most with manuscript titling on mounts. (Some occasional foxing.) France, 19th century.
Oblong 8o. Black morocco gilt, elaborately decorated in gilt and blind, green and red floral figures at corners of wide central gilt border, gilt-lettered "Madame Hanwood" at top of front cover, edges gilt, with binder's ticket of Imler "Relieure du Roi" (some minor edgewear).
A very fine and deluxe album, presumably prepared as a gift for the recipient Madame Hanwood, identified on the cover.
