Description
UNIQUE single volume featuring only the plates from Pierre François Tissot`s popular work "Trophées des Armées Français". The book, published around 1820, described the French victories during the French revolutionary wars, and was accompanied by b&w engravings made by the artist Edme Bovinet and F. L. Couché fils. These engravings, 70 in number, comprise this volume, and depict scenes of famous land and naval battles, sieges and conquests. The volume features no title page. The only text present in the book are the image captions, and the occasional mention of a famous general present in a battle. 150x230mm. Unpaginated (70 plates). Black quarter-cloth Hardocver. Cover and cover edges slightly worn. Cover corners bumped and peeling. Small sticker on front cover. Spine edges and front hinge peeling. Ornate stickers on both endpapers. Binding slightly loose, several plates partly loose from binding. Pages yellowing and age-stained. [SUMMARY]: Save for the aforementioned wear, this one of a kind volume featuring valuable engravings of the Napoleonic wars, is in good condition.
