A beautiful Venetian binding on an English edition of Pascal’s Pensees. Octavo. Original painted parchment binding by the Rosen bindery, with weaving design to the spine, and elaborate decoration in a gilt and a panoply of colours to the upper cover. Top edge gilt and gauffered. Ties broken. A very good example.
