Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. viii, 301 pages : illustrations ; 34 cm. Hardcover in slip case. Wear/chipping to slip case with minor loss. Good binding and cover. Printed by Hans Mardersteig in Verona, Italy. Limited ed. no. 820 of 1500 copies, signed by the illustrator, Fritz Kredel. The Limited Editions Club was founded in…1929 by George Macy with the intent of publishing beautifully illustrated and designed classic literature for a relatively small number of subscribers. Much of the LEC's fame stems from its use of some of the best illustrators and artists available. Each title was uniquely designed with individualized paper and cover materials. This is an oversized or heavy book that requires additional postage for international delivery outside of Canada and the US. Benvenuto Cellini was a Florentine sculptor, goldsmith, and writer. He was one of the most important Mannerist artists and, because of the lively account of himself and his period in his autobiography, one of the most picturesque figures of the Renaissance. Signed.
