The Story
6B Olive Wood binding encasing pages of pressing, dried plants and art from the regions around Israel. Jerusalem, 1890 in Hebrew
Description
What makes these books distinctive is their combination of pressed and dried flowers from the Holy Land with printed illustrations or views of Jerusalem and biblical sites. The flowers were real local specimens, carefully mounted by hand, turning each book into a fragile botanical souvenir as well as a historical artifact. Many copies were bound in small decorative covers (sometimes olive wood) and produced in very limited numbers.
Ā Notes
Olive Wood binding encasing pages of pressing, dried plants and art from the regions around Israel with beautiful dome of the rock on front cover, very fine condition.
