Smith John Raphael
THE WIDOW OF AN INDIAN CHIEF WATCHING THE ARMS OF HER DECEASED HUSBAND caption title
London: I.R. Smith 1802. Handcolored mezzotint 17 1/2 x 19 inches. Small tear in lower margin slightly affecting image and caption. Minor edge wear and dust soiling. Mounted on heavy card. Fair only. Archivally matted protected with mylar sheet. Later issue after the first of 1789. A striking mezzotint engraved by J.R. Smith after a 1785 painting by Joseph Wright showing an Indian woman looking out over a serene ocean while her deceased husband's tomahawk war club and quiver hang above her on a dead tree. In the background a steaming volcano and thunderclouds complete the pastoral scene. When the painting was first exhibited in 1785 this description accompanied it: <br> <br> "This picture is founded on the custom which prevails among the savage tribes of America where the widow of an eminent warrior is used to sit the whole day during the first moon after his death under a rude kind of trophy formed by a tree lopped and painted; on which the weapons and martial habiliments of the dead are suspended. She remains in this situation without shelter and perseveres in her mournful duty at the hazard of her own life from the inclemencies of the weather." <br> <br> Though Wright never travelled to America he depended heavily on James Adair's HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN INDIANS. 1775 for anthropological information for this painting. The original remains at the Derby Museum and Art Gallery. Quite rare. Not on OCLC. I.R. Smith unknown books

Alvarez JosAA J. and Rafael Duran
ITINERARIOS Y DERROTEROS DE LA REPUBLICA MEXICANA
Mexico City 1856. 4804pp. Several errors in pagination. Small quarto. Contemporary red half sheep and boards spine gilt. Boards and extremities rubbed. Contemporary bookplate on front pastedown. Light toning and minor foxing. Very good. An extremely valuable compilation which gives detailed data including route scenery and other key information about many various parts of Mexico. By piecing together the different itineraries it offers a traveler could basically go anywhere in Mexico and into the U.S. already provided with extremely detailed instructions about the best route and what facilities - such as water grass and shelter - were available every step of the way. A detailed name index listing routes and where they are to be found in the book further enhances the volume's usefulness for travelers be they headed to destinations great or small. Many of the routes described begin in Mexico City; some routes extend into Texas and New Mexico. Among the most interesting are two itineraries concerning California. One describes a journey from La Paz at the far southern end of Baja California to the U.S. border. This is one of the most detailed and expansively described routes in the entire book preserving a wealth of geographic and natural details. Many of the places detailed in this section have either disappeared or been extensively altered. The other journey is along the Sonora Route from Ures to Sonora to the California gold fields. This trip passes through Los Angeles and includes some commentary on the missions in the area.
