[Illustrations of the Battle of Navarin. London: Colnaghi & Son, 1828.]

Fine hand-coloured plates after Reinagle's eye-witness drawings of this most important naval battle. Reinagle was aboard HMS Mosquito and saw first-hand the destruction of the allied Turkish-Egyptian fleet, effectively ending Ottoman resistance to Greek independence. This Colnaghi edition was published the same year as the first Italian edition. Bobins III, 1157; cf. Blackmer 1403 (Italian edition); Droulia 1531.



Folio (340 x 500mm). Lithographic plan and 12 hand-coloured lithographic plates showing the dramatic naval battle by Hullmandel after Reinagle, printed leaf of descriptive text and 2pp. page list of subscribers (without the printed wrapper which has the title and imprint). Modern half calf over marbled boards, red morocco gilt label on upper cover, plates and text all uncut; preserved in a modern blue cloth folding box.
