Description

When the Club purchased this example in 1889 it was bound in a disintegrating 18th-century binding. Rebound sympathetically in New York in 1975, it was stamped with a reproduction of Tory’s publisher’s binding die, its shattered vase memorializing his daughter Agnès, who died at the age of nine.
