Alpes et glaciers de la Suisse
A Swiss Alpine picture book of steel-engraved views, published by Chr. Krüsi with text by Eduard Osenbrüggen and Charles François Girard, probably for travellers and armchair readers of the mid-nineteenth century. The plates show mountain valleys, cliffs, glaciers and small buildings on ledges, all printed sideways on the page, with fine hatched shading that suits landscape studies, map-style relief, and engraved tonal work.
