Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Three volumes complete. A swift second edition of this almost sacred architectural study of the buildings of Venice.

All three volumes have wear to all edges and seams. The front faces have a gilded decoration (mild and assured). Volume 1: The Foundations. The cloth boards have wear and scuffing. The spine is worn but secure. The frontis and end papers are mild if a little marked and worn from handling and used. Colour plates are fresh and mellow and clear. The pages are firm, settled, sure, clean and clear. Volume 2: The Sea-Stories. As with volume one. Volume 3: The Fall. As with volume one. The spine has been repaired with a leather strip. Despite the wear to the covers this a most agreeable, comforting, comfortable set. fk. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. Seller Inventory # bhrm
