Description
FIRST AND ONLY EDITION OF ONE OF THE BEST AND RAREST 19TH-CENTURY ILLUSTRATED BOOKS ABOUT CENTRAL ASIA (includes depictions of places now in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.) iii, 67 pp plus additional etched title-page and 21 FULL-PAGE HORS-TEXTE ETCHINGS, PRINTED ON VERY FINE WOVE PAPER, BY ZELESKI, THE AUTHOR. An association copy, from the collection of Parisian photographer Charles Reutlinger (1816-1881). Oblong folio. Loose in custom-made solander case. A bit of discoloration to text leaves, but THE ETCHINGS ARE FINE AND BRIGHT. An outstanding set of one of the very few books about Central Asia illustrated with original etchings. A beautiful production, and very rare.
