Algeria

Antique Views of Algeria

Original engravings of Algiers and Algeria spanning almost a century and a half, from Bastiaen Stoopendael's 1687 view of De Ruyter's fleet before the city to Skelton's coloured plate of the 1830 naval attack, alongside Alain Manesson Mallet's map-view of the port and Charles Théodore Frère's marabout of Bouzaréah.

A strong choice for collectors of Barbary Coast views and North African history, from Ottoman-era Algiers to the eve of French colonisation. Each engraving is an original of its period, with a technical sheet giving technique and exact measurements.
