FUESLI, Henri.
Vue Remarquables de la Suisse par rapport a l'Histoire.
BEAUTIFUL HAND-COLOURED VIEWS OF SWITZERLAND. Füssli spent much of his career teaching painting in England, where he was known as Henry Fuseli, and counted William Blake and John Constable among his pupils. A German edition of this work was produced at roughly the same time.
