About This Item

Paris: A. Quantin, 1883. First edition. A delightful work, praising the parasol (along with gloves and muffs!) was published a year after Uzanne's work in praise of umbrellas. Illustrated by Paul Avril, with numerous compositions in the text and in different tones (Sepia, blue/grey etc.) Softcover, with a silk covered "Shirt" protection. The book is in perfect condition. The top edge of the "shirt" has been split, and now repaired with archival tape. The rear lace closures are missing. There are some foxing spots to the last few pages. Overall though in lovely original condition. 138 pp. 273 x 175mm . Première édition. Un ouvrage délicieux, qui fait l'éloge de l'ombrelle (ainsi que des gants et des manchons !), publié un an après l'ouvrage d'Uzanne faisant l'éloge des parapluies. Illustré par Paul Avril, avec de nombreuses compositions dans le texte et dans différents tons (sépia, bleu/gris, etc.). Couverture souple, avec une protection "Chemise" recouverte de soie. Le livre est en parfait état. Le bord supérieur de la "chemise" a été fendu et réparé avec du ruban adhésif d'archivage. Les fermetures à lacet arrière sont manquantes. Il y a quelques rousseurs sur les dernières pages. Dans l'ensemble, l'ouvrage est en très bon état. 138 pages 273 x 175 mm
