Reinhardt's fine series of Swiss regional costume subjects set against fully coloured landscape backgrounds. Colas preferred this undated issue to the first of 1822 because it was printed on better paper and the colouring was 'plus beau'.
Small 4to, title pages in French and English, 30 fine hand-coloured paltes after Reinhardt, each plate captioned on a wash background below image, occasional light marginal spotting or soiling but generally clean, English text leaf to plate XIV torn but no loss, original half red straight-grain morocco, paper label to upper cover, uncut, rubbed, rebacked preserving old spine, corners repaired,
Bobins 496; Colas 2531; Cf. Lipperheide Ga31.
