L'Éloge de la Folie

Description

This item is on display to show the exquisite richness of the engraving shown. Note the texture and pristine whiteness of the paper used; this was intended for a reader seeking luxury. The engraving would have been passed through the press at a different time to the printing of the text and been bound in the final states of collation and sewing of the gatherings of text.
