rif. 2869Librairie Firmin-Didot et Cie, Paris, 1878.Un volume relié (21 x 28,5 cm) de xii-523 pages.Superbe reliure peinte, vernissée.Reliure plein veau, dos à nerfs, double garde en tissus moirés et papiers, toutes tranches dorées. Reliure réalisée par le relieur bruxellois Gustave Schildknecht. La reliure est entièrement peinte et vernissée, les deux plats ainsi que le dos. Sur un fond sable, sur le premier plat une composition à l'imitation ou reproduisant une peinture murale du XVIIIème siècle, avec le monogramme SG (pour Gustave Schlidknecht), au deuxième plat ce même monogramme peint en son centre, au dos les six caissons sont aussi ornés à l'imitation des caissons peints des plafonds du XVIIIème. Les peintres qui ont réalisé cette oeuvre sont deux artistes liégeois Ch. de Florenville et Ed. De Guaita qui ont entre autre illustré la reliure d'un album de botanique (cf. Bulletin de la Soc. Royale de Botanique de Belgique).Il est fort probable que cette reliure ait été réalisée pour être présentée lors d'une exposition, comme celle d'Amsterdam en 1883 qui vit le relieur G. Schildknecht recevoir une Médaille d'Or. Quelques traces de frottements et coins légèrement émoussés sinon très bel exemplaire.
