An Italian edition of Auguste Wahlen's illustrated survey of the manners, customs and dress of the world's peoples, issued in Turin in 1844 for general readers and compiled from travel accounts. Hand-coloured lithographed plates show single standing figures in ethnographic costume against bare ground, useful for isolated full-length silhouettes, ornament patterns, weapons and headdress details.
