Le Robinson Suisse, ou, Journal d'un père de famille naufragé avec ses enfants

Wyss, Johann David, Montolieu, Isabelle de · 1814 · Arthus Bertrand · 12 pictures

Le Robinson Suisse is a 1814 Paris French-language adventure novel by Johann David Wyss, adapted by Isabelle de Montolieu and published by Arthus Bertrand for young readers. Its engravings show a shipwrecked family in a tropical island setting, with figures in European dress among palms, trees, and animals. A designer might take from them the ink-and-line engraving style, with dense hatching for foliage and clear figure groupings that suggest narrative sequence.
