Briefe über Sicilien und Maltha: als ein Supplement zu der Reisbeschreibung von H. Brydone ; mit Charten vom Etna, ...

Borch, Michal J., Werthes, Friedrich August Clemens [Übers.] · 1783 · 4 pictures

A German translation from 1783 by Friedrich August Clemens Werthes of Michał Borch's letters on Sicily and Malta, issued as a supplement to Brydone's travel account and aimed at readers of travelogues and archaeology. The pictures are black-and-white copperplate engravings: a papyrus plant and its root with the sprouting stem, a gnarled tree with a stone building beneath it, and a Maltese woman in formal dress, drawn in fine parallel hatching that a designer could borrow for botanical or period-costume motifs.
