Fort-de-France, Martinique

For a variant of this view by Cazabon, see Christie's London, 23 Sept. 2004, lot 105. Cazabon travelled in 1859, supplying views for Hartmann's now rare Album of Demerara and Album Martiniquais, both published in 1860. Dominique Cazabon, thought to be the artist's grandfather, was an administrator resident at Fort-de-France in the 1780s.
