This exquisite three-volume set of miniature antique books showcases The Poetical Works of John Milton, complete with his life by Samuel Johnson L.L.D. and scholarly remarks by John Aiken M.D., printed in 1810. Each volume features a fine leather spine adorned with gilded tooling, contrasting beautifully with sage green covers that bear the soft patina and subtle staining of two centuries of careful handling.
Compact yet richly detailed, these miniature tomes capture the elegance of early 19th-century bookbinding while preserving the literary legacy of one of England’s greatest poets. Ideal for collectors, bibliophiles, or as a refined decorative accent, this set embodies both scholarly significance and the artistry of antique craftsmanship, offering a tangible connection to the world of literature and learning over two hundred years ago.
