You know i love books, and i have a few old prints. I bought this edition from an Italian bookstore, the 2 times i ordered in Italia it was cheaper compare to french bookstores, but i had to restore the books. This time i made it restored by a pro, but it was very (too) expansive...

My favorite illustrated book is Le Capitaine Fracasse by Theophile Gautier illustrated by Doré. Because Gautier is my favourite french writer, and i really like the work of Doré on this book :
