French painter and engraver Francoise de la Pointe, also known as Francoise de Lepine or Lespine, was active from the 1660s to at least 1690. This book, the second of two volumes on the life of Jesus Christ, illustrates the Passion, Crucifixion, Resurrection, and Ascension of Christ, as well as the Death and Assumption into heaven of the Virgin Mary.
Rebound in olive green cloth, but a large portion of the cloth has chipped away to reveal the original, cracked animal skin binding. The rebind has rendered the pages very secure. Endpapers are heavily worn, with recent, penciled notations pertaining to the book\'s history. Expected wrinkling and foxing to pages, though the effects are fairly moderate.
