The Property of Nicole and William M. Keck II BEAUMONT, EDOUARD DE. 1821-1888. [PERRAULT, CHARLES. 1628-1703.] Cinderella and the Two Gifts. Asnieres: Boussod Valadon & Co., 1886. Folio. Color lithographic frontispiece and 32 illustrations in text after drawings by Beaumont. Contemporary deluxe tan morocco by Riviere, decorated in gilt with green and red morocco inlays, gilt-decorated inner dentelles, pale blue watered silk endleaves, matching morocco and marbled paper slipcase. Spine darkened, minor wear to covers, scattered foxing. The fine binding features a motif of key images from the text, including a rat, mouse, lizard and frog (all of which were turned into horses, footmen, and a coachman), spiders, roses, a wine goblet, and of course a slipper. The text is derived from a translation of Perrault's Cendrillon of 1697.
