Seller's Description:
None. Fine. A highly detailed anthology, full of the complete works by John White First edition. With coloured facsimiles of all of White's work, with original dimensions. John White was an English artist, and an early pioneer of English efforts to settle the New World. He was among those who sailed with Richard Grenville to North Carolina in 1585, acting as artist and mapmaker to the expedition. During his time at Roanoke Island he made a number of watercolour sketches of the surrounding landscape and the native Algonkin peoples. These works are significant as they are the most informative illustrations of a Native American society of the Eastern seaboard; the surviving original paintings are now stored in the print room of the British Museum. In original cloth binding with gilt lettering to the spine. Externally, smart, with very light marks to the rear board. Internally, firmly bound and very bright and clean. Fine.
