First thus. 68pp, with line drawings. Quarter bound in cream cloth over illustrated paper-covered boards. 4to. Boards a little faded and lightly rubbed at edges, cloth at spine tips at a little pushed in. Internally neat, clean and tight but perhaps a little less than bright. In its original matte dust wrapper, a little rubbed and bumped on edges, shelf worn and a little browned, with some light chipping on folds and edges.
A notable illustrated book containing twenty-three reproductions of lithographs by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, all of which other than The Mouse and The Toad have been reproduced at three-quarters the original size. Toulouse-Lautrec originally did the lithographs in the 1890s to illustrate Jules Renard's Historires Naturelles, which here are translated into English by T W Earp. All the sketches depict animal scenes inspired by hunting.
