"Machine pour tirer l'eau, afin d'arroser les terres."
This is an original 1757 copper plate engraving of a drawing by Frederick Lewis Norden of an 18th century Egyptian water wheel. Note the man in the bottom right corner playing a lute -type instrument.
Period Paper has acquired a large collection of original 1757 copper plate engravings of Egypt and Nubia (now northern Sudan), including maps, archeological references, and architectural details. These rare original items are from the first and only translated folio edition. Miniatures of these were also created in 1757, about one-eighth of this size, but they hold a fraction of the value of this collection. This collection is in exceptional condition with only the minor aging and light foxing which is expected considering the age of these items.
Frederick Lewis (or Frederic Louis) Norden (1708 - 1742) was a Danish naval captain and explorer. On the request of King Christian VI of Denmark, Norden made a voyage through Egypt to Nubia (northern Sudan) in 1737Ð1738, The remarkable notes, observations, and drawings that Norden made of Egypt, and what was then called Nubia, were published in the posthumous Voyage d'Egypte et de Nubie. ...Read more

HISTORY OF THE OLD AMERICANA PHOTOS
This image comes from the George Grantham Bain Collection which represents one of America's earliest news picture agencies. The collection richly documents sports events, theater, celebrities, crime, strikes, disasters, political activities including the woman suffrage campaign, conventions and public celebrations. The photographs Bain produced and gathered for distribution through his news service were worldwide in their coverage, but there was a special emphasis on life in New York City. The bulk of the collection dates from the 1900s to the mid-1920s, but scattered images can be found as early as the 1860s and as late as the 1930s. (Library of Congress) ...Read more
