One of the most beautiful 18th-century de luxe editions in France of Salomon Gessner's (1730-1788) complete works, with the charming illustrations by Barbier. Gessner's friend Michael Huber (1727-1804), Henri Meister, and Bruté de Loirelle were responsible for the translation. At the end of volume three are two letters by Gessner addressed to Barbier, concerning the illustrations and the translation.
