Since Adirondack Retro acquired Darvill's Rare Prints in August of 2022, we have been working tirelessly on our New State-Of-The Art Website. We are excited to announce that it is now up and running and that our massive inventory of Antique Prints and Rare Maps are being transferred over to the new site daily. In addition to the nearly 500,000 prints found on www.DarvillsRarePrints.com, Adirondack Retro offers an eclectic selection of Antique and Vintage Advertisements along with their Limited Edition Giclee Prints.

Architectural Studies in France
by the Rev. John Louis Petit, M.A., F.S.A.

with illustrations from drawings by the author and P.H. de la Motte

London: George Bell, 186, Fleet Street
— 1854 —

Original engravings and anastatics (relief zinc etchings) nearly 170 years old
Sheet size: approximately 7.125 x 10.5 inches (about 18 x 26.5 cm)
NOTE: the engravings are printed on a thinner, lighter weight paper and the anastatic etchings are printed on a thicker, heavier-weight paper.

Due to their age and the type of paper used, there may be some foxing on the plates, especially the thicker paper of the etchings.
