Antique French Leather-Bound Books, 1868 | Set of Four

A beautifully timeworn set of four 19th-century French volumes by Saint-Marc Girardin, Cours de littérature dramatique, ou De l’usage des passions dans le drame. Gilt-decorated leather spines and richly marbled paper boards make these a striking addition to a bookshelf, library, or collected interior.
