Four original steel-engravings after Lieutenant Allen from the work entitled “The shores and islands of the Mediterranean” written by the Reverend George Newenham Wright, published in London by Fisher Son & Co. about 1839 or 1840.
Beautiful exemplars with plein margins, with a mild browning to the borders but in general very good condition.
