Zur Erinnerung an die Reise des Prinzen Waldemar von Preussen nach Indien in den Jahren 1844 - 1846

Mahlmann, Heinrich [Hrsg.], Oriolla, ... von [Hrsg.], Humboldt, Alexander von [Vorr.] · 1853 · 66 pictures

A travelogue published in 1853 in German, edited by Heinrich Mahlmann and Oriolla with a foreword by Alexander von Humboldt, recording Prince Waldemar of Prussia's journey to India in 1844 to 1846 for a German-reading audience. The engraved plates are landscape views drawn in fine tonal line, with broad trees in the foreground, distant hills and mist, and small figures and buildings set into the scene; a designer might take their layered depth and dense foliage texture as a model for atmospheric landscape compositions.
