Collection of 12 photographs of China Indonesia the Hawaiian Islands California and Egypt.Late 19th century. With 12 albumen prints ranging in size from ca. 16.5 x 23 cm to 21 x 28 cm.
Collection of 12 vintage photographs from the late 19th century showing China Indonesia the Hawaiian Islands California and Egypt. Of the 4 photographs of China 2 show Hong Kong including one possibly by the famous Chinese photographer Lai Fong ca. 1839-1890 showing Queen's Road Central. The two rarest photographs show several of the 7500 imperial examination cubicles in Canton Guangzhou while a photograph by A Chan Ya Zhen shows the famous five-story pagoda on Kun Yam Hill in 1870. The Indonesian island Java can be seen on 3 photographs including one of lake Telaga Warna by the British firm Woodbury & Page based in Batavia Jakarta. Taken further to the west were 3 photographs of Hawaii probably all taken in or near Honolulu. A rare undated photograph of the statue of King Kamehameha was taken probably right after the unveiling ceremony in 1883 as it shows a small wooden fence around the statue which can be seen in an illustration in The Graphic 28 April 1883 but is absent from all later images. Of the 2 final images one by Isaiah West Taber 1830-1912 shows Midway Point in Monterey California and the other by Hippolyte Arnoux fl. 1860-1890 a group of Arabs and camels waiting for the ferry near El Qantara in Egypt. Most of the photographs are worn at the edges with small tears and folds and a few have small holes; one of the images of Hawaii with a waterstain at the lower margin. unknown

[Scherzer, Karl von]
Reise der Oesterreichischen Fregatte Novara um die Erde in den Jahren 1857, 1858, 1859, unter den Befehlen des Commodore Bernhard von Wüllerstorf-Urbair. Beschreibender Theil. Mit einem Frontispiz, 39 meist getönten Ansichten und Tafeln, 31 (davon 11 gefalteten) farbig lithographierten Karten, einer großen, mehrfach gefalteten farbig lithographierten Curskarte sowie 14 teils gefalteten Beilagen und zahlreichen Textholzschnitten. Erster bis dritter Band in 3 Bänden..
Wien, Karl Gerold's Sohn in Commission 1861-1863, 1861. X, 368, 37; VI, 454, 20; VI, 436, 8, 8 S. Etwas größere Orig.-Leinenbände. Die Fregatte Novara umfuhr als letztes Segelschiff die Erde; sie dokumentierte u. a. das Überstehen eines Taifuns und die überaus reichen naturwissenschaftlichen und ethnologischen Sammlungen ihrer Expedition bereichern bis heute die großen Museen Wiens. Die Curskarte im hinteren Deckel von Band 1 in einer Kartenlasche. Mit einem faksimilierten Brief Alexander von Humboldts sowie seinen "Physikalischen und geognostischen Erinnerungen" im Anhang zu Band 1. Unsere Kollationierung der Abbildungen und Tafeln, der Karten und Beilagen weicht von der anderer Kollegen ab, da in den Bänden selbst mißverständlicherweise auch die im Anhang separat paginerten Texte jeweils als "Beilagen" bezeichnet werden; wir halten uns demgegenüber an die bibliographische Usance, als Beilage nur zu bezeichnen, was tatsächlich abweichend vom Textdruck hergestellt wurde (also Lithographien und Holzschnitte sowie Notendrucke). Band 1 mit kleinem Besitzvermerk von 1861. Bei Band 3 ist der Buchblock gelockert und nach dem letzten Blatt angebrochen, wodurch ca. 6 Tafeln, Karten und Beilagen lose beiliegen. Die Einbände sind gering berieben, insgesamt handelt es sich trotz der Gebrauchsspuren um ein ordentliches, vollständiges und noch gut erhaltenes Exemplar des klassischen Reiseberichts mit sämtlichen Illustrationen.
