Scenes in IgloolikG.F. Lyon, 1824[LYON, George Francis (1795-1832).] Igloolik Eskimos. Northwestern Hudson's Bay 1821-1823 (cover title). [London: John Murray,] c.1824. Very rare suite of deluxe prints from William Parry's Second Arctic Voyage, the longest of Parry's three voyages in search of the Northwest Passage. G.F. Lyon was the artist who accompanied Parry. These large-format prints are not in the standard Arctic bibliographies. Presumably, Parry or Lyon had a limited print run made to satisfy public or personal interest in the Inuit. They are published by Murray, who also published the first edition of the Journal of the Second Voyage (1824).Folio (434 x 300 mm). Comprising 26 plates engraved by Edmund Finden after drawings by G.F. Lyon, each printed on India-proof paper, approx. 270 x 220 mm., and mounted (scattered foxing to mounts), tissue guards. Modern linen binding with morocco gilt cover and spine labels.
