12, Paris Jacomme & Cie. R. de Lancry

This 19th-century Paris publisher’s album delivers crisp, hand-colored engravings of Swiss mountain scenery. It includes the 1851 plate “Forêt de Sierre en Valais,” a tightly framed view of pine-clad slopes around the Rhône valley. The prints sit in the heavy paper folios typical of the period, when publishers like Jacomme turned travelers’ sketches into keepsakes. Flip from the Sierre forest to the next numbered plate to see how the valley’s pines change with the light.
