TRAVEL NOTEBOOK IN INDIA. 1845. Album in-4... - Lot 184 - Giquello
TRAVEL NOTEBOOK IN INDIA. 1845. Album in-4 oblong, green percaline, cold framed, gilt title on the spine (Binding of the time). Album of 52 original drawings from nature, most of them watercolours, made during a trip to India, representing plants, fruits and animals (35), as well as characters from the Coromandel coast and Bengal (17). The drawings depicting fruit are particularly noteworthy. On the first leaf, a portrait of an artist wearing striped trousers and a fitted jacket, topped with a cap: perhaps this is a self-portrait of the artist? At the bottom, a handwritten indication in pencil: Carnet de voyages dans l'Inde. 1845. Plates from life.
