Nico Jungman; Beatrix Jungman - Holland - 1904

Beautiful book by A & C Black about Holland — or the Netherlands, as it is often called. A truly beautiful binding with a gilded orange tree full of fruit — and in very good condition — (spine is loose). The chapters divide the country into different regions: Zeeland ~ North Brabant ~ South Holland ~ Utrecht ~ Gelderland ~ Overijssel ~ Drenthe ~ Groningen ~ Friesland ~ North Holland.
The text is from the wife of the illustrator, Beatrix, who has a keen eye for observation, interacts lively with the people around her, and can often be extraordinarily amusing. This book thus provides a truly interesting picture of Holland as it was back then. Not dry history for her!

A sturdy book measuring 16.5 by 23 cm - alongside the 75 watercolors stored with tissue paper, there are 212 pages.
