First and only edition; an important and rare work, the last copy to appear at auction was 25 years ago in 1999. Best known as the author of the Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Raspé was a friend of Horace Walpole who helped him publish the present work. According to Schmid, (The practice of painting, p. 83) Raspé closely adheres to the book and opinions of Lessing (Vom Alter der Oelmalerei, Braunschweig, 1774).
