Prosper Mérimée : ses portraits ses dessins sa bibliothéque

Tourneux, Maurice, 1849-1917 · 1879 · Paris : Charavay Fréres éditeurs · 18 pictures

A French study of the writer Prosper Mérimée, compiled by Maurice Tourneux and published in Paris by Charavay Frères in 1879, covering his portraits, drawings and library. The pictures are line drawings of townscapes and landscapes: a rotated Asian-style temple roof complex, a flat field with a distant treeline, a tree-lined lane with stone walls, and a grand classical building on a street corner, useful to a designer for pen-and-ink architectural sketching and streetscape composition.

Mérimée, Prosper, 1803-1870
