Zwitsersche gezigten. / Vues Suisses 1842 - 1856

"Zwitsersche gezigten. / Vues Suisses" (1842-1856) by P.J. Delhuvenne is a charming and informative visual glossary of Swiss objects and scenes. The print, measuring 400 mm by 286 mm, is comprised of a grid of 60 small vignettes, each depicting a distinct item or activity associated with Switzerland. The artist's use of color and detail in depicting these scenes is masterful, providing a glimpse into daily life in Switzerland during the mid-19th century.
