Reviews

  1. Nenad Miloradovic

    Wonderful book, exactly as described & better than anticipated. Book is in excellent condition and will be proudly added to my collection of Brunelleschi's artworks & illustrated limited editions. This antique volume arrived very carefully packaged in four layers of protection within a padded box. Seller was very communicative throughout an arduous delivery process that was inexplicably misrouted and delayed by USPS, & due to no fault of the seller. Many thanks. Happy to do future business.
