Scandinavia - ACERBI (Giuseppe). Journey to the North Cape, through Sweden, Finland, and Lapland. Collection of plates. Paris, Buisson, Year XII - 1804. In-4, half-light calf, ribbed spine (modern binding). Atlas only, without the text volumes. Complete with all 28 inset plates, including the 12 engraved music pages and the large fold-out map at the end. A collection of plates illustrating the famous journey of Giuseppe Acerbi (1773–1846) to the North Cape, undertaken at the end of the 18th century through Sweden, Finland, and Lapland.
