Description from the seller
Code Napoléon – original edition 1809 – Karlsruhe – half-leather binding of the period – complete copy
Description:
Rare and authentic ancient legal work from the Napoleonic era, entitled:
“Code Napoléon mit Zusätzen und Handelsgesetzen als Land-Recht für das Großherzogthum Baden”
Printed in Karlsruhe in 1809, this is the first edition / original edition of the official German adaptation of the Code Napoléon for the Grand Duchy of Baden.
This historical edition directly attest to the influence of Napoleonic law in Europe at the beginning of the 19th century and constitutes a piece particularly sought after by collectors of ancient books, legal works and documents from the First Empire.
The work is preserved in its period half-leather binding with marbled paper boards, offering a beautiful visual presence and an authentic stamp.
The book is in a tired state consistent with its age: marked binding wear, rubbing, signs of time, foxing, old stains and general patina.
However, it is important to note that all pages are present, including the title page dated 1809, which is a real asset for a volume over 200 years old.
