Neiges et Sommets Pyrénéens - Souvenirs d'Excursions dans les Pyrénées Centrales. Paris, les Auteurs, 1911 (A.I.: 1912).
In folio: 142pp; numerous photographic illustrations in the text, some full-page; 1 fold-out map which accounts for 4pp. of the pagination. Numbered edition (n°12) (scattered freckling on a few leaves, less severe than usual).
½ tinted flamed basane with corners, ornate spine, publisher's cover preserved.
"Beautiful work dedicated to the memory of Earl Henry Russell". The most beautiful Pyrenean work illustrated by photography: a happy combination of the Richard verascope and phototyping. The black photographs are supported by the sepia text.
The authors spent several years surveying the Pyrenees together, collecting over 400 photographs, a selection of which is presented here (Labarère 302)(Perret 2869).
