The Human Race, ... illustrated by ... engravings on wood, and ... chromolithographs
A popular ethnography by the French science writer Louis Figuier, issued in English in 1872 with wood engravings and chromolithographs for general readers curious about the peoples of the world. The numbered plates are grouped figure studies — Greeks with water jars, Persian noblemen in tall caps, seated village families — drawn for costume, hairstyle, vessel and posture detail against light backgrounds.
