‎Première édition anglaise. Un bel album d’estampes sur l’Oberland. Très rare et très recherché. (cf. Perret sous Weibel). Perret mentionne sous Lory, n° 2696: ‘Souvenirs de la Suisse...pour faire suite au Voyage Pittoresque dans l’Oberland Bernois’, sans pour autant mentionner ‘le Voyage Pittoresque’, lui-même de 1822 (éd. de Paris), et il confond, selon moi, 2 éditions différentes .First English edition in a beautiful publisher’s binding. Seventeen hand-coloured aquatint views without signatures. The work is considered to be an English version of the work by Phil. Alb. Stapfer «Voyage pittoresque de l'Oberland ou Description ...» published in Paris, in- folio,1812, with 1 frontispice by Duncker and 14 coloured plates after G. Lory by S. Weibel which was also published in 1822 in Paris and Strasbourg. In this edition 11 views are by J.S. Weibel & 6 by F. Schmid, F. Schutz, M. Wocher & G. Lory. But ‘Some of the plates in Ackermann’s book, judging by the titles, do not correspond with any in the Voyage Pittoresque done in Paris. (Abbey Travel). These fine coloured views of Swiss lakes, mountains, glaciers & towns, all in typical warm, summerly English colours, are showing: 1 - ‘Bern’, 2 - ‘View near Thun’, 3 - ‘View of Thun’, 4 - ‘View of the Lake of Thun. From upper Island’, 5 - The environs of Thun’, 6 - ‘View of the Castle of Spiez’, 7 - ‘View of the Cavern of St. Beat, near the Lake of Thun’, 8 - ‘View of Unterseen’, 9 - ‘View of Interlaken’,10 - ‘Fall of the Staubbach’, 11 - ‘A View of the Jungfrau’, 12 - ‘View of the Glaciers of Grindelwald’, 13 - ‘View of the Glaciers of Roselouvi’, 14 - ‘Meyringen’, 15 - ‘The Fall of Olstenbach & the Bridge of Wyler, 16 - ‘View of the village of Brienz’, 17 - ‘View of the Castle of Rinkenberg’. The map of the ‘Glaciers of the canton of Berne’ is bound at the beginning as a frontispice. Waber, BSL III/135, cf. III/133; Abbey, Travel 57; vgl. Mandach, Les Lory, p. 137; Perret 4534.
