2 Volume Miniature Del Prado 'Paradise Lost' Books by John Milton. Published in 1667, Paradise Lost is an epic poem by the 17th-century English poet John Milton. Many scholars consider Paradise Lost to be one of the greatest poems in the English language. It tells the biblical story of the fall from grace of Adam and Eve (and, by extension, all humanity) in language that is a supreme achievement of rhythm and sound. These 2 miniature volumes are the full text - and each one can be placed inside the pouch.In the 19th century, Gustav Dore provided exquisite illustrations for the book, and the last photo shows one of these intricate and sacred engravings.
