- A heavy folio set titled Picturesque
A heavy folio set titled Picturesque America. The Land We Live In. A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of The Mountains, Rivers, Lakes, Forests, Water-Falls, Shores, Canons, Valleys, Cities, and Other Picturesque Features of Our Country (New York, 1872, 1874; complete in two volumes), edited by famed 19th century New York editor and poet William Cullen Bryant (1794-1878). Some scuffing and wear but generally in acceptable condition; covers are fully attached.
One online source describes the work this way: "This two-volume set and others of the same genre achieved great popularity in the nineteenth century. Their illustrations provided a tour of nineteenth century America, unspoilt and pastoral, its centres of commerce, ports, architecture and natural treasures. In a modern (2001) treatment of the work, Sue Rainey, who is a historian of American graphic arts and has a particular interest in the artists who drew landscapes and cityscapes for periodical and book illustrations, wrote "As the first publication to celebrate the entire continental nation, it enabled Americans, after the trauma of the Civil War, to construct a national self-image based on reconciliation between North and South and incorporation of the West." The volumes display both steel and wood engravings based on the paintings of some of the best American landscape painters of the nineteenth century..."

- "New York Bay", a Set of Jean Zuber
"New York Bay", a Set of Jean Zuber et Cie., Rixheim, Alsace, Vues d'Amerique du Nord Wallpaper Panels, ca. 1940, overall 85" x 117", mounted on plywood with a narrow giltwood frame. This important set of panels was introduced by Zuber in 1834, designed by Jean-Julien Deltil (1791-1893) from an 1828-1829 series of engravings by Jacques-Gerard Milbert (1766-1840), Itineraire Pittoresque . The panels were quickly embraced in this country as icons of Jacksonian America. Although the capability exists to reproduce the panels today -- Zuber retains the original printing blocks, now considered part of the French National Heritage -- the complicated and costly production of the four panoramic vignettes of five complete scenes, nearly fifty feet in length, involves 32 panels, 1,690 wood blocks, 233 different colors, fifty men and as much as two years production time. The removal of the present series (from a New Orleans Garden District residence) and their subsequent re-mounting was conducted by noted wallpaper conservator Susan Nash. The most famous similar conservation of a set of these panels was unquestionably that of First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, who oversaw the 1961 removal of a set of from an historic Maryland home and their installation in the Diplomatic Reception Room of the White House, where they remain today. Another set, housed in the Carolina Inn, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, was the subject of a recent restoration; other known sets include those in the Greenbriar Resort, White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia; the Mint Museum, Charlotte, North Carolina; and the Governor's Mansions in both Columbia, South Carolina and Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
