One of on hand-made paper produced by Gaspard Maillol at Monval close to Marly-le-Roi (n. 3). Latin and German texts facing each other. This edition was conceived and designed by Count Harry Kessler (1868-1937), in the spirit of the Venetian impressions of the 15th century and printed with type especially engraved for this edition, after the characters used by Nicolas Jenson in Venice in "A classical spirit pervades the finished volume, from the harmonious composition of the type to the slightly archaic grace of the figures" (The artist and the book).

The present volume is one of its main works, a landmark in modern German book production. Ref. The artist and the book
