Album Mexicano
Michaud y Thomas, c.1850
Album Mexicano. Retratos de los personages ilustres de la primera y segunda epoca de la Independecia Mexicana. Mexico City [but Paris]: Michaud y Thomas, [c.1850].
Portraits of figures related to Mexican Independence. While the wrapper bears the names of important Mexico City printers Michaud and Thomas, the individual plates have the imprint of the Parisian lithography house Thierry frères. Interestingly, Stevens lists a very similar sounding item in his Bibliotheca Americana, with the same title but the 1843 imprint of C.L. Prudhomme, with whom Michaud is known to have worked. According to Stevens that publication had only 21 plates, with a title and advertisement; the present work has 22 plates. See Stevens 1491.
Folio (336 x 245mm). 22 lithographic plates, each with four hand-colored portraits (very light toning, some small repairs at bottom edge occasionally in printed area). Modern calf-backed boards with printed wrapper laid down to upper cover (worn, some areas of loss or repair on wrapper, touched up in ink). Provenance: Rubén J. Dussaut (bookplate).
