Tag: le Magasine Pittoresque

Visions of far away places in far away times done up as engravings for Le Magasin Pittoresque. These from 1857 and 1858 issues. Published in Paris, it looks like a mid 19th century version of the long gone Life Magazine though by then of course the articles came with photographs.
