Item Details

Description

Pollnitz, Karl Ludwig. AMUSEMENS DES EAUX SPA. Amsterdam: Pierre Mortier, 1740. 5.75" x 3.5". 2 vols. Illustrated with 16 folding plates, including frontispiece to first volume. Ix, [3], 424; [2], 414 pp. Bound in period 1/4 calf over marbled boards. ******* An entertaining guide to the spa. The work focuses mostly on society and fashion rather than practical descriptions of the waters and/or medicinal qualities. The folding plates have captions in French, German, and Italian.

Condition

Boards faded and worn, edgewear, first volume with crack to spine which appears carefully restored. Contents mostly clean though there is some light water-staining in a few places to margins mostly to first/last few leaves and some plates (worst example is the first title-page, shown in photos accompanying this description.) Nice set overall.
