This little jewel of an edition was commissioned by The Limited Editions Club for The George Macy Companies and was the last of Dulac's books published prior to his death in 1953.

Hi Thom,
These are beautiful in composition and design; less complex than many of Dulac's illustrations, but also reminiscent.
