Vols. 1-3 bound in contemporary mottled calf gilt, vol. 4 contemporary quarter calf (dried and worn).

FIRST EDITION. As Blackmer notes, Saint-Non's Voyage "was the first work of its type to appear in France and it created a vogue", exemplified by the works of Houel, Choiseul-Gouffier, Cassas and others. Saint-Non, a gifted amateur engraver, travelled extensively in Italy, and planned this work with the collaboration of gifted friends. Cassas, Duplessi-Bertaux, Fragonard, Houel and Hubert-Robert all contributed drawings, while Denon commissioned local artists to produce drawings of significant sites that the principal artists could not visit. Berlin Kat. 1904; Blackmer 1473; Brunet V:55-56; Cicognara 2708; Cohen-De Ricci 928-930; Reynaud 482-484. (4)
