This handsome Victorian volume features an attractive half-leather binding with marbled boards and matching marbled endpapers, making it an appealing collectible for both readers and decorative library enthusiasts.
Included are Bacon\'s classic essays along with Memoir and Notes, Ornamenta Rationalia, Elegant Sentences, Short Notes for Civil Conversation, and The Colours of Good and Evil.
A desirable feature of this copy is that three groups of pages remain partially uncut (unopened) along the fore-edge, suggesting those sections were never fully opened after the book was bound. The affected pages are:
- Pages 9–12
- Pages 13–16
- Pages 221–224
