Complete in 10 octavo volumes and 2 oblong folio volumes.
With 626 hand-coloured copperplates (423 in the 10 octavo text volumes and 203 in two oblong-folio plate volumes).
A fine uniformly bound set of the 10 octavo volumes, with mixed editions of the oblong folio plate volumes and index volume. Includes the often-missing volumes Annotations and supplements (Ammerfungen und Erganzungen) by Leopold Ziegelhauser published in 1837.
As early as the mid-19th century, it was described as "rare and difficult to find complete" (Bulletin du bouquinist, 1859).
