Top-stained in yellow, remarkably bright and unmarked of interior. Bright and shiny dust jacket, illustrated, showing no wear, not price-clipped. Several hundred fine reproductions of fine arts, printed on fine, high-gloss paper, quite attractively. Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography.
