Description

10 prints : etching, engraving, lithograph, color or b&w; 29 x 29 cm. or smaller.

Summary

Collection culled from various illustrated books or series of plates. Some items have been trimmed of their captions and/or publication data, making identification of their sources difficult. Items apparently from the same source have been grouped together. Countries or geographical regions represented include: Algeria, Arabia [?], Borneo, Caroline Islands, Georgia, India, Mozambique, New Guinea, Persia, Tahiti (Otaheite) and other Pacific islands. Some of the images may have been intended as ethnographic documentation; others may be costume plates.
