This stunning complete 7-volume set of Vie du Chevalier de Faublas by Jean-Baptiste Louvet de Couvrai was published in 1795 and beautifully bound in full tree calf leather with richly tooled gilt spines and red title bands. Each volume features marbled endpapers and an armorial bookplate from the historic Bibliothèque du Château de Sercy, adding a sense of old-world nobility and provenance. This revised and expanded edition was printed in London and distributed in Brussels, a testament to the book’s significance during a turbulent period in French history. The bindings are elegant and well-preserved, with just the right amount of wear to showcase their age and authenticity.
