Book Review
Jan. 25th, 2007 09:15 amMy copy of Un banquier mis à nu : Autobiographie de Matthäus Schwarz, bourgeois d'Ausbourg by Philippe Braunstein arrived today.
It is a fascmile of the BnF copy not of the original, but its in full golorious color and a real treat for the eyes!
The book is hardbound and comes in a protective cardboard sleeve.
The first part of the book is the color facsmile of the costume book of Matthais Schwarz, then the second part is a text section with the original picture captions translated into French and a small amount of commentary.
The costumes themselve are very well drawn, and some of the details are quite easy to make out.
This is definitely worth adding to your research library, especially at $26
