Paris: Garnier Freres, 1863-1864. Nouvelle Edition. Hardcover. 24 x 16 cm. Host of engraved plates by Delannoy and Massard after G. Staal.

Considered the creator of modern French comedy, his plays are performed at the Comedie-Francais more than those of any other playwright. A clean, bright set internally, minor rubbing to extremities and corners, raised bands, gilt decorated spine panels, marbled endpapers. Contemporary three quarter green morocco and marbled boards. Near fine. Teg. 7 vols. Item #17448
