Promenade pittoresque par les lieux les plus intéressants de la Suisse et des pays limitrophes : composée de cinquante vues en miniature
A pocket picture book of fifty small aquatint views of Switzerland and neighbouring lands, published in 1829 in Zurich by the Fussli firm and drawn by the Bodmer brothers and Salomon Corrodi for travellers. The views are tonal sepia prints of Alpine valleys, villages and mountain passes, with shepherds, cattle and goats in the foreground. A designer could take from them the layered tonal depth of aquatint, with pale distant peaks set against dark foreground trees and rocks, and a calm, pastoral landscape composition.
