Description: |
Hand-colored aquatint of the Parish or St. Marylebone, from Charles Malo's series on the capitals of Europe. Fine condition, due to presence of a tissue guard, which seems to have been lately removed.
Charles Malo (1790-1871) produced a series of books on the capital cities of Europe, including Berlin, Constantinople, Londres, Madrid, Paris, Rome, St. Petersbourg, and Vienne.
The volumes, in French, record details of daily life in the cities, historical information, and architectural details of churches and significant public buildings. |
