According to Brunet, only 200 copies were printed of this rare work by the architect and archaeologist Chenevard (1787-1883), describing the journey that he undertook with painter Etienne Rey to Greece between 1833 and 1834. The plates include views of Athens, Delphi, and Ithaca, and display the author's particular interest in ancient architecture.
The number of plates can vary. The current collates as called for in the list of plates: a map, a plan, plates numbered 1–75 and 3 bis plates (28, 56, 57). Contominas calls for 48 bis, not present here; Atabey has a total of 79 plates.
