vii, 302 pages untrimmed.
Frontispiece with captioned tissue-guard.
Chapter pages plus the 45 plates
have captioned tissue-guards.
Burgundy half-leather over marbled cover.
One of the most exquisite bindings I have seen.

A look at the life and times of Henry VIII, 
undoubtedly  one of the most recognisable 
and controversial of the British monarchs.
From the dispatching of his unwanted
wives to his self-appointment as head 
of the Church there is more intrigue here
than in a John le Carré novel.
The beautiful and lavish plates 
fully complement the narrative.

Goupin & co [publishers] were considered
to be the leading European publishing house
of their time when it came to works
of art and this publication is a case in point.
A very heavy volume shipping at 5000g. 

Shipped and insured by recorded delivery.
