Werner, Carl (Friedrich Heinrich).
Carl Werner: Nile-Sketches Painted from Nature During his Travels through Egypt.
Royal quarto. Pp. 71, plus 24 chromolithograph plates, mounted on card and protected with tissue-guards. Plus frontispiece map. With 2 text figures. Hardcover, bound in original publisher's full cloth extra, richly decorated. A fine copy with just few minor blemishes. ~ First English edition. Karl Friedrich Heinrich Werner (1808-1894). Born and trained in Germany, Werner traveled extensively in Egypt and Palestine and produced there many splendid watercolours. The plates in this book are pantographic copies from the original watercolours, traced by mechanical means from the original. This method, however, could not reproduce the fine colouring which was done separately. The plates are accompanied by descriptive texts written mostly by Alfred Brehm (1829-1884) and Johannes Dümichen (1833-1894); both also wrote the preface.

Davies, Nina de Garis, Alan H. Gardiner (Editor).
Ancient Egyptian Painting, Selected, Copied, and Described, I-III. [THREE VOLUMES].
Three volumes. I. Text: Quarto. Pp. xlviii, 209; II-III. Plates: Two Imperial folios with a total of colour 104 plates, 52 in each volume. Hardcover, uniformly bound in the original publisher's cloth, bit rubbed in places. In a very good condition. ~ First edition. An outstanding production. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms. Coloured collotypes the size of the plates in this set are very rare in book production, so much so in such superb quality. Reproduced extensively ever since the publication of the book, the grandeur of the original collotypes is breathtaking. Beinlich-Seeber 6273.
