2530. MAYER Luigi, Views in Egypte from the original gravings in the possession of sir Robert Ainslie. Engraved by and under the direction of Thomas Milton, London 1801, in fol., fig. — Aggiuntovi: Vue en Palestine d’après les desseins originaux de L. Mayer, London 1804. — Vue dans l’Empire Ottoman, principalément dans la Caramanie, London 1803. Queste due ulteriori opere hanno la traduzione francese a fronte del testo inglese; la prima delle tre contiene 48 tavole; la seconda ne contiene 24 e la terza 24. L’edizione di queste opere è del massimo splendore e le tavole colorate sono di una classica bellezza e tale che equivalgono a ben dipinti quadri da gabinetto. Nessuno vinse ancora in questo genere le opere inglesi. La carta che servì a queste magnifiche edizioni può assolutamente equivalere a lamine d’avorio; tanto è compatta, eguale e candida.
