Pirates assaulting Grand Tourists among the ancient ruins at Selinus, Sicily. It is plate 6 of 'Ansichten der am meisten erhaltenen Monumente Siziliens' by Friedrich von Gartner (1792-1847), of which it is thought that only 300 copies were printed. Gartner, an architect from Munich, spent several years in Rome and Naples and visited Sicily in 1816. In London afterwards he met Charles Joseph Hullmandel, who stoked Gartner's interest in lithography, then in its infancy.
