General Note:
Translation, by Helen Maria Williams, of: Vues des Cordillères et monumens des peuples indigènes de l'Amérique. Paris, 1810-1813 (representing Partie I, section 2: of Voyage aux régions équinoxiales du Nouveau Continent, fait en 1799-1804 / Alexander von Humboldt); Engraved title pages, each with a vignette illustration designated as Plate 10 (v. 1) and Plate 6 (v. 2) and signed: W. Jeffreys. sc. Fetter La.; Colophon v. 1: J.G. Barnard, Skinner Street, London; colophon v. 2: Bernard and Farley, Skinner Street, London.; Direction lines v. 1 marked: Vol. XIII., and direction lines v. 2 marked: Vol. XIV. Also, notes, indexes and lists of plates (all in v. 2) refer to volume XIII. or XIV. respectively (rather than to v. 1 or 2). Apparently, these volume numbers were assigned to a series of translations of various works by Humboldt, issued (or, in part, planned to be issued) by the London firm of Longman, Hurst, Reed, Orme & Brown.; Signatures: v. 1: [A]² B-2C⁸ 2D⁴ chi² ([A]1 verso, D1 verso, chi2 verso blank); v. 2: [A]² (-[A]2) B-X⁸ Y² ([A]1 verso, P6 verso blank); Volume 2: p. 233 misnumb.: "333"; v. 2: p. 310 misnumb.: "103"; Plates (20, on 19 leaves) numbered: Pl. 1. [-20.]. Plates 1 and 2 printed on one leaf. Text describes the 69 plates of the original French edition, giving their numbers as: Plates I. and II. [-Plate LXIX.]. The plate numbers assigned to the two vignettes on the title pages refer to the numeration of the plates in the French edition; however, Plate "6" on the title page of v. 2 is an error for Plate "8" (text in v. 1: p. 105 is marked correctly as: Plate VIII.). Consequently, the present work contains 22 of the original 69 illustrations. Many plates have the imprint: Pub.d by Longman, Hurst, Reed, Orme & Brown, August [or: Aug.t] 1814.; Contains: "Letter from Mr. Visconti, member of the National Institute of France, to M. de Humboldt, on certain monuments of the American nations." (v. 2: p. 210-219), signed: E. Q. Visconti and dated Paris, the 12th of December, 1812.
