A Hundred Wonders of the world in nature and art. Described according to the latest authorities and profusely illustrated. Edited by J. Small
A popular Victorian compendium of natural and man-made marvels, edited by John Small and published in Britain in 1876 for general and family readers. Wood engravings mix full-page scenic views—the Fata Morgana mirage over a harbour, the Ganges at Patna with palms and temples—with horizontal ornamental headpieces built from foliage, shells, sailing ships and small landscape vignettes framed around a central medallion, useful as banners, rules and cartouche frames.
