Nuevo Viajero Universal, enciclopedia de viajes modernos, recopilacion de las obras mas notables sobre descubrimientos, exploraciones y aventuras, publicada por los mas célebres viajeros del siglo XIX. ... adornada con profusion de mapas, láminas sueltas y grabados, etc
A Spanish-language encyclopedia of modern travel compiled by Nemesio Fernández Cuesta in 1859, gathering accounts of nineteenth-century exploration for general readers at home. The plates are full-page wood engravings printed sideways, showing harbours and coastal towns, palm-lined river gorges, mosques with minarets, and mountain valleys, with soft grey tonal skies and small figures for scale that suit pale-toned landscape backgrounds and vignette framing.
