Voyages et aventures du capitaine Hatteras : les Anglais au pôle nord -- Le désert de glace

Verne, Jules, 1828-1905, Riou, 1833-1900 · 1867 · Paris : J. Hetzel · 8 pictures

An 1867 Hetzel edition of Jules Verne's Arctic adventure novel Voyages et aventures du capitaine Hatteras, illustrated by Édouard Riou for French readers of the Voyages extraordinaires series. The wood engravings show sailors on deck, men in fur coats and heavy boots, a small sailing boat crossing open swell, and interior scenes of men arguing around a table, useful for maritime figure studies, cold-weather costume, and gestural crowd groupings.
