Prayers Written at Vailima
London: Chatto and Windus, 1910. Alberto Sangorski. First Edition, Second Impression Stated. Hardcover in faux vellum over boards. A very nice copy of a famously beautiful illuminated book of prayers. Illumination by Sangorski is faithfully recreated via chromolithography and presented in a form which harkens back to religious manuscripts of the 1400's.
This copy has toning to the faux vellum and some chipping and dry cracking to the spine, which is still in place but for an small area at the head. End papers and fore-edge have some foxing but the illumined pages are fox-free and bright. A very good copy of a beautiful work of publishing from the early 1900's. Very Good / N/A. Item #1012
