Bound in full brown morocco. Spine richly decorated with gilt title and date on tail. Triple gilt fillet on the boards. Double fillet on the edges. Large inner lace. Gilt head. Binding signed DUPRÉ. The text is inserted on each page in a colour illustration with a decorative border, several full-page colour illustrations, including the chapter headings. Introduction and notes by Charles Marcilly and printed by Charles Gillot.

LIMITED EDITION of 200 numbered copies. This is one of the 100 numbered copies on paper from the Imperial Manufacturers of Japan.

This is the first book printed in several colours by Charles Gillot using the photogravure technique of "gillotage". The layout is innovative, the frames are overflowing, the plans are superimposed. The illustration of the book is spectacularly rich, architectural motifs, costumes, weapons are finely drawn.

At the time of its publication Octave Uzanne considered it "the most beautiful book of the century". It is a reference example of the new luxury book which combines technical prowess and the emergence of a new bibliophilic style. Disciple of Violet le Duc, Eugène Grasset took more than two years to draw the plates of the four Aymon sons.

One of the jewels of the Art Nouveau illustrated books in a superb binding in perfect condition.
