This beautiful vintage 1966 hardcover first edition of The Art of Cuisine is by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec and Maurice Joyant. Like many well-born men of his time, Toulouse-Lautrec loved food--planning it, cooking it, eating it, and talking about it. This culinary memoir features original recipes and exuberant drawings by Toulouse-Lautrec, plus a Preface by Alexandra Leaf describing the French culinary scene of the time. This copy is in used vintage condition with the dust jacket missing and some minor wear and discoloration to the cloth cover. There is some staining to the front end page, but there are no torn or marked pages and excellent overall color quality.
Hardcover, 164 pages
