notes:
Popocatepetl, whose name means smoking mountain, is the second highest volcano, and one of the most active, in Mexico. William Bullock (1775-1840) was a jeweler and goldsmith from Sheffield, England, who founded a museum in London to display his collection of objects. Bullock traveled to Mexico City in 1823; in 1824 he held an exhibit of ancient Mexican artifacts he had acquired. Plates based on author's drawings. The engraver may be John Clark, an English engraver active from 1775 to 1825. Image placed horizontally on page.
