⁂ One of Buckland Wright's most collected works, and on which he continued to work after publication. In this first edition, the illustrations appear as white line engravings, as opposed to those in the second edition which he had reworked as silhouettes with additional white line hatching. The final illustration of a female nude with three ravens refers to the coat-of-arms of Emile, Baron van der Borch van Verwolde who commissioned the book from Stols. It also served as his bookplate.
