Nord und Süd : Wanderungen durch alle Zonen der Erde ; zur bildenden Lectüre für die reifere Jugend ; mit 8 colorirten Kupfern
A German illustrated travel book of 1862 published by August Riese, written by F. Orelli as educational reading for older young people, with eight hand-coloured copper engravings. The pictures show jungle and tropical scenes with elephants, monkeys, a large snake and hunters in landscape settings, drawn in a lively, detailed style. A designer might take from them the dense hatched foliage, bold flat local colour and the lush, adventurous atmosphere of nineteenth-century exotic travel prints.
