1881 BEAUTIFUL Gustave Doré Art SPAIN Spanish Architecture FOLIO Fine Binding

“Spain,” written by Baron Jean Charles D’Avillier and translated by John Thomson, is an extensive survey of Spain. The book features a myriad of engravings, all created by the renowned illustrator Gustave Doré. Doré, along with D’Avillier, visited Spain in 1862, and his drawings from their travels became an integral part of the book. His illustrations beautifully capture the essence of the Spanish landscape, culture, and people. This folio edition stands out as a testament to Doré’s incredible talent and his position as one of the greatest Romantic illustrators.
