In half vellum, with renewed blue end papers, and the original half-title preserved. Contains a frontispiece and all fifty-three other full-page ink illustrations by De Roussey. Contains a publisher's original advertisement leaf to the rear.

With many of Anacreon's poems related to Cupid and romance, De Roussey's speciality for romanticism and eroticism are showcased.
