Description

This atlas volume was produced to accompany a landmark collaboration between a Peruvian archaeologist and a Swiss naturalist. It includes eye-grabbing views of pre-Columbian mummies, tombs, artifacts, and more. The lithography was done by Leopoldo Müller and the volume was published by the "imperial de la Corte del estado de Viena."
