Pre-war Vondel Plays – 2 Volumes (1939–1941) – Elsevier Amsterdam – Library of Dutch Literature
A stylish two-volume edition of the plays of Joost van den Vondel, published in 1939 and 1941 by Elsevier in Amsterdam. This edition is part of the Library of Dutch Literature series and was compiled in collaboration with leading literary institutions in the Netherlands and Flanders.
The bindings are half-linen with a dark brown spine and gold print. Volume II is in very good condition; Volume I shows clear but honest wear on the spine, appropriate for its age and use. The interior of both volumes is neat and sturdy.
A characterful pre-war edition of the Netherlands' greatest playwright – both literary and decoratively appealing.
