Einzige 4°-Ausgabe. - Ray, 13A: ""The engravings after Turner for Roger's Italy and Poems are seen at their best in the handsome quarto edition of 1838, where the illustrations in the text were replaced with unsold sets of proofs. It will be noticed that the steels were very large, hence the absence of plate marks in the octavo edition."" - Stellenweise leicht gebräunt an den Rändern bzw. braunfleckig.
