[Mount Tchatyr Dagh.]

[Lithographed by Day & Son from a painting by Carlo Bossoli.]
[London: Day & Son, 1856.]
Tinted lithograph, mounted on card and hand coloured, as issued in the Subscription edition. Image 185 x 280mm, 7¼ x 11". Fine colour.
From the subscription edition of Bossoli's "Beautiful Scenery and Chief Places of Interest throughout the Crimea", a work with considerable ethnographic and geographic interest, especially in their depictions of Tartar life. Mountainous plateau of Caves and alpine meadows near Alushta. Carlo Bossoli (1815-84) visited the Crimea several times between 1828 and 1843, most extensively from 1840 to 1842. When the Crimean War started Bossoli moved to London to capitalise on the heightened interest in his work, even selling paintings to Queen Victoria.
