Album of Italian Art and Architecture. [Rome]: C. Glingler, [ca. 1890].
Oblong folio (14.5 x 10.25"). Unpaginated, 94 albumen prints mounted on 48 leaves. Handsomely bound by C. Glingler in elaborately gilt-stamped vellum over beveled boards, front cover monogrammed 'J. R. P.' in gilt, patterned endpapers, all edges stained red. Some soiling and wear to extremities, front joint starting, corners bumped, one leaf detached, a handful partially separating. A good only binding, but photographs are generally fine.
A gorgeous collection of art and architecture in Rome and Florence, including St. Peter's Basilica, the Vatican, the Sistine Chapel, and works of Michelangelo, Raphael, and many more.
