London: Hodder and Stoughton,, [1913]. Nothing more purely beautiful has ever come even from Dulac's fairy brush Signed limited edition, number 116 of 750 copies signed by the artist. Dulac's work rivalled Rackham's in popularity and was largely confined to deluxe editions. "Nothing more purely beautiful has ever come even from Dulac's fairy brush than the picture of Badoura in the arms of Camaralzaman against a background so exquisite as to make one hold one's breath" (review in The Outlook, 15 Nov. 1913). Quarto. Original white cloth, spine and front cover lettered in gilt and decorated with pictorial design blocked in gilt and green, pale green endpapers, top edge green. Housed in a custom green quarter morocco solander box. Colour frontispiece and 9 colour plates tipped in and with captioned tissue guards, by Dulac. Cloth a little finger-marked, else very bright, a little faint browning to free endpapers. A near-fine copy.
