The French Constitution, decreed by the National Constituent Assembly, in the years 1789, 1790 and 1791. Accepted by the king on 14 September 1791. Paris, at Garnery, 1791.
2 works in 1 volume in-16 (10 x 7 cm), 160p. & 160p. (complete collation). Contemporary full red morocco binding, smooth spine ornamented, boards framed with a gilt motif, roll toolings on the turn-ins and the edges, all edges gilt, blue silk endpapers.
Beautiful edition, the first small-format printing, printed by Didot on vellum paper. With an additional watercolored map of France.

Very beautiful binding that blends revolutionary symbols (iron with the Phrygian cap and sword, allegory of fame) with the fleur-de-lis, symbol of royalty.
