Description from the seller
An exceptional copy of the Gospels (Bossuet's translation), published in 1958 by Éditions de l'Odéon and André Vial. This work is a remarkable piece of bibliophilia, combining the finesse of modern illustration with the prestige of medieval-inspired bindings.
The book is bound in a magnificent full morocco binding in Havana brown, whose covers are entirely adorned with a rich blind-decorated pattern (embossing).
Condition:
Binding: Very good condition. The leather has remained supple, the embossing is deep, and the gilding on the spine is fresh.
Interior: Very clean, paper very white, with no notable foxing. The illustrations have retained all their brilliance.
