A beautiful trio of 19th-century French literary treasures, bound in deep brown leather with gilt-tooled spines and raised bands. Each volume bears the mark of fine Parisian craftsmanship and the timeless poetry of Victor Hugo’s words.
Published in Paris by J. Hetzel & Cie and Maison Quantin, these editions form part of Hugo’s Œuvres Complètes, bringing together his most celebrated plays — Cromwell, Hernani, Marion de Lorme, Le Roi s’Amuse, Les Burgraves, and Torquemada. Inside, you’ll find rich paper, elegant type, and Hugo’s heartfelt 1827 dedication, “À mon père” (To my father).
A statement set for a curated shelf or study — evocative of Parisian libraries, candlelight, and the quiet romance of books well-loved over centuries.
