Hamburgische Trachten. - Costumes de Hambourg, [Hamburg:] 1822.

Third edition of a popular work portraying the costumes and activities of the city of Hamburg and its surroundings. It includes strawberry sellers, sugar bakers, fish wives, brewers, Helgolaender, and charming scenes of a boat trip on the Alster and a sleigh ride on the Elbe. Suhr, a native of Hamburg, taught at the Royal Academy in Berlin. Most bibliographies cite editions of 1808 and 1812 only, apparently identical but for the date on the title; only the 1822 edition has the plate list in English/French in addition to German/French. Bobins III, 1073; Colas 2832 (1808 & 1812 eds); Lipperheide Dfl 1 (1808 ed.); Vinet 2161.



Folio (356 x 224mm). Title in German and French, 2 leaves of plate list, one in German/French, the other in English/French, 36 plates coloured by a contemporary hand, plates embossed with “C Suhr” in lower margin (lower corner of title repaired). Contemporary green embossed paper boards, original title label mounted on spine (rebacked and -cornered in green morocco, lightly rubbed). Provenance: Sammlung Hamburgensien-Meyer (stamp on back pastedown).
