Véronique, pour faire suite Au curé du village, suivi de deux esquisses parisiennes

Belgian counterfeit edition published the same year as the original.

A few occasional spots of foxing; a peddler’s stamp to the lower left corner of the half-title page.

Contemporary-style binding in burgundy Russian morocco over marbled paper boards, smooth spine richly gilt with decorative rolls and floral tools, minor rubbing to joints without loss, pebble-grain endpapers and pastedowns, original wrappers and spine preserved, gilt top edge. A handsome pastiche in the Romantic style.

A well-preserved copy, attractively bound in a fine Romantic pastiche.
