A richly detailed and visually opulent work, Die Schatzkammer des Bayerischen Königshauses by Emil Schauss offers a rare window into the grandeur and legacy of the Bavarian monarchy through its most prized possessions. Lavishly illustrated and meticulously described, this work captures the splendor of the royal treasury of the House of Wittelsbach, including sacred relics, crown jewels, regalia, and works of fine craftsmanship that once symbolized power, piety, and prestige. This edition is exceptionally scarce, seldom seen in any holdings. Based on comparison with similar examples, the publication date is estimated to be 1877. It stands as both an art historical document and a cultural artifact, offering insight into courtly aesthetics, European dynastic traditions, and 19th-century antiquarian publishing. This set shows notable wear consistent with age. The covers exhibit visible rubbing and scuffing, and in Volume II, a piece of the spine covering is partially detached, as shown in the accompanying images. Internally, there is consistent foxing throughout, along with other signs of age-related wear, though the plates and illustrations remain compelling and legible. A rare and evocative tribute to one of Europe’s most storied royal houses, this work preserves the legacy of a collection once reserved for kings—and now immortalized on the printed page.
