LARGE PAPER COPY containing the frontispiece in 2 states not called for by Cohen-de-Ricci or Ray. "... the designs in this book serve as a reminder that Eisen's development of the voluptuous style usually associated with his name came when his career as an illustrator was well advanced. Eisen's plates follow the triumphant course of Folly throughout society ... The book should be sought in the superior quarto edition, for which Eisen provided the frontispiece within a fine rococco frame. It shows Folly offering his bauble to the goddess of wisdom" (Ray).
