London: Longman, Rees, Orme, Brown, Green & Longman, 1835. 2nd Edition . Hardcover. Poor / Fair. Second edition. Hardback bound in full black pebbled leather, simple gilt titling to spine. All edges gilt. 22 × 14cm, 258pp. This is Scottish novelist Leitch Ritchie's wanderings along the Seine from the Valley of Andeli and Chateau Gaillard, through Saint Germain and Paris, to Fountainebleau, Champagne and Troyes. The book is illustrated with twenty engravings by J M W Turner (vignette to engraved title and 19 plates). All plates are present as per the plate index, but with some small differences in pagination. Condition: Poor. The binding is rubbed to the spine ends, and the binding is split open at the engraved title page (the rear hinge is secure). The text is readable but the plates all suffer from foxing, but that's not to say they don't have considerable charm.

Lower joint with a two inch crack, the occasional minor spot in the text. Corners bumped else a very good clean copy. One of three works generally referred to as Turner's Annual Tours, and this apparently a large paper copy (or at least an untrimmed copy), with plenty of margin for the connoisseur. It was first published in the previous year as India paper proofs before titles. Edward Hodnett, goes so far as to say that the engravers who worked on Turner's landscapes turned his watercolors into "steel engravings of unsurpassed brilliance" (Five Centuries of English Book Illustration, page 141) Gordon Ray says that Turner "achieved his best landscapes on steel in the series" (The Illustrator and the Book in England From 1790-1914, page 18).
