Its lithographed cover, decorated with floral motifs, frames a cartouche adorned with a printed rose, while the interior pages reveal texts calligraphed in violet ink, with elegantly illuminated titles : French history, geography, chemistry, and natural sciences. Each page is meticulously framed with floral embossing. A rare and delicate piece, vibrant with care and attention to detail.
