L’IMITATION DE JÉSUS-CHRIST

Elegant 19th Century French Devotional in Gilt-Tooled Black Leather 1818 

 

This exquisite French edition of L’Imitation de Jésus-Christ is presented in a richly gilt-tooled full black leather binding, decorated with intricate arabesques and fleurons on both the spine and covers. The boards are framed with embossed borders and a central cruciform motif, offering both reverence and visual sophistication.

 

The interior features striking marbled endpapers with a Greek key border, complementing the engraved frontispiece depicting Christ bearing the cross. Text throughout is clean and legible, though some expected foxing is present—especially on the preliminary leaves—adding to the authentic patina of its age.

 

Details:

• Language:French

• Binding:Full black leather with gilt embellishments

• Interior:Engraved frontispiece; marbled endpapers; scattered foxing

• Condition:Structurally sound with some wear to covers and corners consistent with age; minor rubbing

• piblished in 1818 

A meaningful devotional object and a beautifully bound volume, perfect for collectors of fine religious antiquarian books or those drawn to spiritual classics with exceptional presentation.
