Viaggio Pittorico nei Monti de Brianza Corredato di Alguni Cenni Storico-Statistici diviso in Ventiquattro Vedute. Milan: Presso Federico Lose, 1823.

A magnificent illustrated guide to the province of Brianza between Milan and Lake Como in Italy, finely engraved in aquatint and exceptionally coloured and highlighted in gum arabic. It was composed by a husband and wife team of artists, Federico and Carolina (formerly von Schlieben) Lose, who illustrated the dramatic scenery of the Brianza region in the style of the Romantic movement. A beautifully coloured copy of a very rare work. Bobins IV, 1449.

Title with an engraved vignette map, 24 aquatint plates coloured by a contemporary hand and highlighted in gum arabic, bordered with black line rule, each with a leaf of descriptive text, original brown printed paper wrapper (upper cover) bound in (small tear in lower margin of plate 9, occasional marginal soiling). Contemporary half calf over red speckled paper boards, spine gilt ruled in compartments, green endpapers, edges speckled blue (rebacked with original spine remounted).
