A New Voyage to Italy: With Curious Observations On several other Countries, as Germany, Switzerland, Savoy, Geneva, Flanders, and Holland. Together, With Useful Instructions for those who shall Travel thither. Done out of French. In Two Volumes
A New Voyage to Italy is a 1699 travel guide compiled by François Maximilien Misson, translated from French and adapted by English editors for English-speaking travellers heading to Italy and nearby countries. The pictures here are small engravings showing classical statues, medallions and street scenes, and a designer might take from them the crisp hatched line of period copperplate and the way figures are arranged within narrow framed panels.
