[Jugendstil- Hoytema, Theo. Van] Uilen Geluk

Amsterdam: C. M. van Gogh, 1895.

First edition. 4to. Original green cloth with exquisite gilt-stamped design of two owls, lettering, on front cover. 20pp. on coated stock, integral at outer edge (i.e. joined as issued), printed on one-side only. Exquisite sepia full-page color illustrations throughout by Theo van Hoytema, acclaimed Dutch artist and illustrator. A rare, atypical edition in the olive green smooth woven cloth. Book slightly 'sprung' owing to nature of string ties at signatures (as issued, i.e. not mended), but overall a near fine example of a scarce and sought-after title by van Hoytema.
