AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

For sale: A magnificent and unique antique poetry album (commemorative book) from the early 20th century, featuring handwritten contributions and poems dating from 1912–1914.
This album originates from the historic region of Bohemia (Czechia) and is written entirely in Czech. What truly makes this copy unique are the refined, hand-painted watercolors of landscapes, birds, and flowers. Several illustrations are delicately signed by the artist (including 'O.D.' and 'O. Tugaček'). The texts are written in a beautiful, elegant historical handwriting.
Condition:
The album is in beautiful, authentic condition. The burgundy cover, with its Art Nouveau relief and silver-colored lettering reading "Poesie," shows light signs of age on the corners. The paper is in good, sturdy condition, with minimal spotting (foxing) consistent with its age. The original metal clasp on the side is still fully intact.

• Type: Handwritten poetry album / Manuscript
• Period: 1912 - 1914
• Language: Czech
• Illustrations: Original watercolors (signed)
• Dimensions: Approx. 17 x 11 cm (or enter your own measurements here)
