BALZAC, Honoré de (1799-1850). La Comedie Humaine. Trans. Katharine Prescott Wormeley. Boston: Hardy, Pratt & Co, 1888-later.

This edition of Balzac’s works was given to Lee Radziwill by her sister, Jackie Bouvier Kennedy. Lee’s interior designer Mongiardino was fond of quoting Balzac, particular his maxim that “the wise man goes back to the origins of ancient times"—an influence surely witnessed in his interiors designed for the Radziwill's.

41 volumes, octavo (9.2 x 6.3 inches). Black half morocco, color illustrations. Copy no. 13 of 40, dedicated to the city of Nice. Provenance: given to Lee by her sister Jackie Bouvier Kennedy.
