Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson
Jacques Gerard Milbert, 1828
MILBERT, J[acques Gerard] (1766-1840). Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson. Paris: Henri Gaugain, 1828.

Fine hand-colored views of the Hudson River Valley and Northeast. Milbert mainly depicts New York State (New York City, Albany, Niagara Falls, etc.) but the views extend as far as Massachusetts and Virginia. Milbert spent the years 1815-23 preparing the sketches for the present work. "As an artist, Milbert loved to paint American landscapes, particularly those which showed the Hudson, 'King of Rivers,' flowing majestically through the mountains … the pictures of what he saw, as of the time he drew them, constitute a unique and valuable record" (Sherman). Howes M-592; Sabin 48916; See Constance D. Sherman, “A French Artist portrays the Natural Bridge,” The Virginia Magazine, 68 (1960).

Atlas volume (507 x 238). Without the two text volumes. Hand-colored lithographed title page after Georges; 54 hand-colored lithographed views, printed on india paper and mounted (light foxing to mounts, very occasionally crossing to plates, light spotting in pl.39). 19th-century half calf (worn, spine perished).Milbert, Jacques
