28 handsome superb chromolithographs of horses (with tissue guards) in appropriate settings - hunting, carriage horses, sire horses, famous racehorses, ladies riding etc. Also 4 colored anatomical plates. Numerous wood-engraved illustrations. The splendid original plates are becoming increasingly rare, since they are a favorite among interior designers and print galleries.
Large 4to, original green cloth, spine & front cover
elaborately lettered, ruled and pictorially decorated. Spine tips frayed. Third
edition. All plates are exceptionally clean with the exception to the
frontispiece, which has minor spotting.
