Important head of collection from no. 1 (December 1, 1832) to no. 181 eighth year (June 30, 1839). 18 small folio volumes, half red morocco, richly decorated smooth spines, gilded title, tomaison and dates (mid-19th c. bindings).

Variable interior defects in the first 12 volumes: numerous freckles, soiling in places, several browned issues, a few tears or cuts, large brown spots in places.

SALVADOR DALÍ I DOMÈNECH (Figueres, Girona, 1904 - 1989). "Montaigne's Essays illustrated by Salvador Dalí", 2006. Book of selected texts with 37 drawings and book of studies. Enclosed 15 numbered plates with stamp of the Gala Dalí Foundation. Limited edition 2250/2990 Publisher: Artika Measurements: 30.3 x 36.7 cm (folder of plates); 30.3 x 36.7 cm (study book); 30 x 36.7 cm (essays); 34.1 x 41.5 x 9 cm (slipcase). This work reveals the drawings made by Salvador Dalí to illustrate the work of the French thinker Michel de Montaigne. An important figure of the 16th century, he was the first to use the term Essay to describe a series of writings in which he reflected on the world in which he lived. Dalí, captivated by the French nobleman, selected and illustrated 21 chapters of his work, where Montaigne's values, thoughts and philosophy are compiled. In the book of Essays, bound in copper-colored silk, Dalí offers us his particular vision and ideas on the selected texts through 37 drawings. A collection of 15 plates -in Indian ink and watercolor- are presented in an elegant folder, all of them numbered and with the seal of the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation, which guarantees the facsimile reproduction. The work is complemented by a book of studies that allows us to delve deeper into the work of Montaigne and Dalí, and takes us into the creation of this new literary genre. An indispensable analysis with a clear and concise language that brings the reader closer to the artist's illustrations, thus allowing us to enjoy this jewel of collecting.
