Genève historique & archéologique ... avec dessins & fac-simile de Hermann Hammann. [With a supplement
A local antiquarian history of Geneva written by John Barthélemy Gaïfre Galiffe and published in 1869, with drawings and facsimiles by Hermann Hammann for readers of Swiss municipal and architectural history. The illustrations are fine-line pen drawings of old town buildings — shuttered stone facades, arcaded gateways, corner turrets, cobbled lanes and rooftop panoramas — plus ribbon-scroll captions, giving designers clean uncoloured outline architecture and ready-made banner headings.
