Lot Description:Chevalier, Nicholas, and others. Victoria Illustrated. Second Series
Oblong quarto, engraved title-page, 42 steel engravings, each with a leaf of letterpress description, publisher’s brown morocco, extra gilt, all edges gilt, imitating the elaborate cloth binding of the ordinary issue. Melbourne and Sydney, Sands and Kenny, 1862. -
Notes:The second series is very much scarcer than the first. It was designed as a companion to the original work but, with Gill then in Sydney, the volume included the work of a number of other artists, including most notably Nicholas Chevalier. Bowden, p. 126; Ferguson, 9924b and 15448; Wantrup, 261a.
