First edition of the French translation by José Maria de Heredia. Bindings in half brown morocco with corners, back with five nerves set with gilded nets and adorned with crossed golden swords overcoming a honorific golden distinction, golden dates in tails, framing of gilt fillets on marbled paper plates, guards and contreplats of paper in the tank, golden heads. Signed autograph of José Maria de Heredia to Leon Charmolüe on the first volume. A small snag on an upper corner of the third volume. Nice copy pleasantly established.
