    Description

    First Edition, Illustrated, Leather Binding, Signed Binding

    First edition.

    In full morocco binding. Binder's stamp to front paste down. Bound by F. Westley.

    Illustrated with 21 plates from J. M. W. Turner. Collated, complete.

    Installment in William Turner's "Annual Tour" series, featuring artwork from his travels alongside text by accomplished writers. His "Rivers of France" collection was particularly popular, encompassing similar titles such as Wanderings by the Seine (1834) and Wanderings by the Seine from Rouen to the Source (1835). Like this edition, text was provided by Scottish journalist and novelist Leitch Ritchie. A renowned painter and printmaker, especially revered for his landscapes, Turner's influence remains prevalent today.
