AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Complete set in 4 volumes, in an elegant uniform 19th-century binding, dark half-leather, spine with raised bands adorned with gold fillets and cold motifs, title and volume numbers gilded.
Jean Cruveilhier was a professor at the Faculty of Medicine in Paris and one of the great French anatomists of the 19th century. This important second edition of his Traité d’Anatomie descriptive constitutes a vast reference work devoted to human anatomy. The original edition of this second edition is indeed published between 1843 and 1845.
Pagination :
* Tome I : 615 pages
* Tome II : 764 pages
* Tome III : 730 pages
* Tome IV : 839 pages
Total: 2,948 numbered pages.
The set is very fresh overall, with paper well preserved and text perfectly legible.
To note, however:
* a few scattered foxings;
* damp-stains in volume III, visible in the photographs;
* in volume II, about 3 to 4 marginal tears at the top of pages, without loss of text and not hindering reading;
* signs of normal use on the bindings, which remain sturdy and uniform.
Apart from these noted defects, the set remains in good general condition and presents very well in a library.
