Le Look-out de Hauteville House [drawing].

Item mounted at the front of a copy of Victor Hugo's Les misérables, v. I (PML 140575), the volume issued as part of a set of his collected Oeuvres complètes, published in Paris by J. Hetzel in 46 volumes between 1880-1883.
The drawing and volume in which it has been inserted appear to have formerly belonged to the engraver Fortuné Méaulle; the Gordon Ray copy of Hugo's Oeuvres complètes is evidently an author's presentation copy, with 6 of the 46 volumes containing inscriptions by the author to members of the Méaulle family.
