PICTURESQUE PALESTINE The prints are all from the monumental work "Picturesque Palestine, Sinai, and Egypt': published by D. Appleton & Co in New York in 1881. The set of 4 volumes contained 35+ steel engravings, of which these prints are, and hundreds of wood cuts, almost all of which can be framed The books from which these prints were taken, had their spines completely destroyed, and could not be repaired. (Google the title to learn more.) As indicated these prints are all steel engravings, over 135 years old and in absolutely pristine condition. They original paintings from which these steel engravings were made were by the very famous artists of the times, Harry Fenn or J.D. Woodward, whose names are noted on the bottom right below each print. The lot has about 35 prints of the Ottoman Period Palestine (includes, what was to become Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt and Syria). 2 frontispieces and 2 maps.
