Quarto, red half-maroquin, ribbed spine, gilt head, untrimmed, illustrated cover and spine preserved. 355 pp., 63 drawings reproduced in black. Cover preserved but slightly soiled.

A study of the author’s life by Alfred Delvau. A friend of Baudelaire, Alexandre Privat d’Anglemont (1815–1859) is regarded as one of the finest chroniclers of ‘bohemian’ Paris. One of 50 copies printed on Japanese paper; this unnumbered copy contains a second state with notes. Vignette of a coat-of-arms ex-libris. A very fine copy, well bound.
