Beschreibung

German bibliophile edition of the Divine Comedy. Translated by Karl Witte. Long introduction by cultural historian Max von Boehn with tipped-in illustrations. Half-vellum edition (so identified on box). Some contemporary clippings from German newspapers about Dante and the Divine Comedy laid in, front free endpaper a bit darkened in part by offset from a clipping. Essentially a fine copy in publisher s protective carton with label. Opening of protective carton slightly worn. Text set in Roman type. It is remarkable that this luxurious edition was produced during the time of the ruinous inflation that wiped out much of the German middle class. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 5160
