Publisher's cream and gold boards, covered with glazed moiré paper. Top headcap pushed in. Soiling. Corners slightly bumped. Good copy. A ballroom dance created around 1820 which became wildly popular at the end of balls, the main venues for fashionable entertainment of the era, the cotillon mixed parlor games and dances; composed of several figures (the flowers, the handkerchief chase, the ribbon, the cavaliers, etc.) and accessories, it could last up to two hours and more depending on the cotillon leader. 19 pages of text in the work explain the figures of the cotillon. For example, the hat: The leading cavalier gives his lady a hat and forms a circle around her with several cavaliers, turning rapidly. The lady places the hat on the head of the waltzer she chooses. Most of the dances were based on the polka or the waltz. Due to the proximity of the dancers, the cotillon was an excellent means of discreet flirtation. *.
