Joseph-Barthélemy-François Carrère - Voyage en Portugal...

[CARRÈRE (Joseph-Barthélemy-François)]. Voyage to Portugal, and particularly to Lisbon, or Moral, Civil, Political, Physical and Religious Tableau of this capital. Paris, Deterville, year VI (1798). 442 pages and a non-numbered leaf in the edition collations; about 14.5 × 22.5 cm. Published without an author's name on the title, this tableau of Lisbon is attributed to Carrère. It moves from streets, squares and fountains to institutions, commerce and religious practices. The narrative is followed by letters on the state of the kingdom and a historical portrait of the Marquis of Pombal, which ends the text on page 438 before the table. The Deterville edition is distinguished from the Voyage of the ci-devant Duke of Châtelet, published in the same year by Buisson. Half-binding in Havana brown with corners, boards of marbled paper in vivid colors; armorial ex-libris on the counterplate. Condition: rubbing and opening at the inner hinge at the beginning of the volume.
