This beauty recently caught my eye while looking for a desk in a local antique mall. Song Birds and Seasons is written by French poet and novelist André Theuriet with watercolor cover and engravings by artist Hector Giacomelli. This 1888 edition is covered in a pillow of silk with gilt-edged pages and is filled with Theuriet’s poems, stories, and personal anecdotes regarding 23 different song birds. Other than that, I haven’t been able to find much out about this charming book.
