A rare set of this unprecedented volume of antiquities and Renaissance items. Spitzer was born in Vienna in 1815 and moved to Paris in 1852. He assembled one of the greatest art collections of all time, which was sold after his death. The part of the sale catalogued in these two volumes took over two months to complete. Rarely offered for sale, a unique and unequaled reference.
