(Band 8)
This is a German-language volume from the Bertuch family's illustrated natural history and travel series, published in Weimar in 1813 by Friedrich Justin and Carl Bertuch for a general readership of armchair travellers and collectors. Its hand-coloured copperplate plates show snakes, a stone building on a rocky shore, a river scene with boats and figures, and a tall weathered rock formation among spruce trees, offering a designer colour-washed naturalistic engravings with strong outlines and earthy palettes.
