Petrus J. BOREL d’HAUTERIVE - Madame Putiphar Published by Léon Willem, Paris, 1877–1878 - A fine copy of this second edition, which is identical in text and vignettes to the original 1839 edition; to which have been added 8 steel engravings based on unpublished drawings by Michèle Armajer. Period binding in red half-shagreen with beautifully decorated spines, red percaline covers, and gilt edges. Slight foxing; a very fine copy overall.
