L'Éthiopie : ses moeurs, ses traditions, le négouss Iohannès, les églises monolithes de Lalibéla : voyage en Abyssinie et chez les Gallas-Raias
A French travel account by Gabriel Simon, published in Paris by Challamel Aîné in 1885, describing a voyage through Abyssinia and among the Galla-Raia, with its monoliths of Lalibela and the reign of Negus Yohannes. The first picture is a large folding map of mountain ranges, river valleys and routes drawn in fine line with hachured relief, useful for topographic texture and cartographic linework. The second is a plate of two numbered figures in pen and crosshatched sketch, showing a bas-relief carving of a figure, useful as a study in engraved hatching and relief drawing.
