Four important works on classical antiquity and art history, all bound in magnificent uniform contemporary gilt-decorated calf bindings. The covers panelled with wide borders built up into a large composition of filets, with rolls of egg-and-dart, floral and volute tools, enclosing a central lozenge composed of a rosette surrounded by bearded figures, classical urns with vine decoration and two sphinxes (rebacked, extremities rubbed).
