AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Illustrated World - 1882

The two volumes are bound into a single large volume, so the year is complete.

The Illustrated World offers a detailed panorama of political, cultural, and international news under the Third Republic. A reference illustrated journal, it is distinguished by the richness of its iconography, its reports, its portraits, and its chronicles on social, political, and artistic life.

The year 1882 is marked by major events: the Jules Ferry law making primary education compulsory, the Triple Alliance between Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy, the bombardment of Alexandria by the British fleet in Egypt, the death of the Italian revolutionary Giuseppe Garibaldi, and the foundation of the Standard Oil Trust in the United States.

The work contains numerous illustrations, some in double-page spreads, caricatures, as well as fold-out panoramas (up to 1 meter long).

1882, 28 x 38 cm, 410 + 410 pages. Leatherette olive binding, smooth spine with title and year in gold. Binding worn. Foxing. Longitudinal crease on the first page.
