'Very rare. The only English set of coloured prints dealing exclusively with this subject. The plates, mostly depicting night scenes, are very beautiful' (Schwerdt). We have not been able to trace any set selling at auction, although RBH does record Sotheby Parke Bernet selling a lot containing 8 copies of a 1981 facsimile edition on 17 June 1982, lot 274. Bobins III, 1178; Schwerdt II, 72b.

Oblong folio (422 x 547mm). 8 engraved plates coloured by a contemporary hand and printed on J. Whatman Turkey Mill watermarked paper, small quarto single sheet prospectus mounted on first leaf (lacking title, prospectus creased and with small marginal repaired tears, plates 1 and 7 with short marginal repairs just into image but without loss, evidence of mounting tape on versoes, some occasional faint browning and staining confined to margins, a few tiny insignificant chips to corners and edges on a couple of plates). Modern burgundy half crushed morocco.
注意事項
No VAT is payable on the hammer price or the buyer's premium for this lot. Please see the VAT Symbols and Explanation section of the Conditions of Sale for further information
