Babelon. J. GERMAIN PILON. Paris 1927. Large 4to [32.5 by 25 cm], original printed card covers. viii, 152 pages; fine frontispiece plate; 64 additional fine plates. Binding worn, with first signature and front card cover separated; contents essentially fine. In need of binding, but restorable to near fine. A very scarce work on this French Renaissance sculptor and medallist. In need of binding, but worth the small effort. The first copy we’ve offered in over twenty years. Part of the series L’Art français, edited by Georges Wildenstein. Ex Robert Refoulé, with his bookplate.
