The Romance of Perfume - Egypt
George Barbier (1882–1932), French
"The Romance of Perfume by Richard Le Gallienne (1928) published by The Richard Hudnut Company (New York - Paris) to promote their wares. They obviously had the phrase "lavishly illustrated" in mind when they chose Barbier to provide scenes from the history of perfume making and use around the world, and this is certainly what he delivered."
