BEATTIE, Elizabeth (compiler) -- A small album containing a collection of approximately 50 mounted pencil drawings and topographical prints, many hand-coloured, including views of Switzerland, circa 1820-30, with related manuscript notes, 8°, contemporary green morocco (very worn).
This album was evidently compiled by Elizabeth Beattie (née Limner), wife of William Beattie (1793-1875) who attended the Duke of Clarence as a medical adviser while the latter was visiting the Continent in the 1820's.
