Title: Atlas der griechischen Kunstmythologie... Author: Overbeck, Johannes Adolf Place: Leipzig Publisher: Engelmann Date: 1872 Description: 5 parts (i.e. fascicles). All published. With title-leaf in the first part, and contents leaves in all parts; 26 double-page lithographed plates in all, most with multiple images of Greek gods and mythological figures. 82x56 cm. (32¼x22"), boards folders with large paper cover labels, ribbon ties. Superb series of finely executed lithographs of the pantheon of Greek mythology. Most of the 20 or so copies listed in OCLC have only 25 of the double-page plates, though a few have the 26th plate; there was apparently a contents-leaf specifically for the 26th plate, not present here. Lot Amendments Condition: Boards worn, a few detached, corners chipped, lower fifth of front board missing; title-leaf and a few of the contents leaves with wear, but the marvelous plates largely clean and fine. Item number: 214826
