Description from the seller
魅力的なヴィクトリア朝の挿絵版 Jonathan Swift『ガリヴァー旅行記』をMacmillan & Co.(ロンドンおよびニューヨーク)から1894年に刊行。
この版には、後期ヴィクトリア朝の最良の英国挿絵画家の一人、Charles E. Brockによる100点の挿絵と、Henry Craikによる序文が付されています。出版元のオリジナルの暗い緑色の挿絵布張り装丁で、背表紙には装飾的な金装飾、すべての頁 edgeも金箔張りです。
本巻は、明るい金箔の装飾と清潔な内装で依然として魅力的です。前部の内綴じ継ぎに亀裂がありますが、巻の綴じは健全で、本文ブロックは今もしっかりと接続されています。
