Signed in the plates l.r., titled beneath the images in Latin, French, Italian, and German. Etchings and engravings with hand coloring, sheet sizes 12 5/8 x 17 in., in matching frames.

The set of "vue d'optique" or perspective views, popular in Europe during the last half of the 18th century, were meant to be seen through a device called a zograscope, or optical machine, which used a pair of mirrors and a magnifying glass to give the viewer a 3-D perspective.Condition
