Pub Note:
"First large-size prints of Moscow: deluxe version printed on China paper, with rare subscribers' list, in original printed wrappers. A fine, complete example of Cadolle's first Russian work, limited to only 250 copies, showing dramatic views of the Russian capital during the Golden Age. Published the year of the Decembrist revolt. August Cadolle (1782 1849) spent several years living in Russia, and published the present work on his return to Paris, in 3 issues; the first two contained 3 plates each, while the final issue contained 4 plates. The rare original wrappers of the present copy belong to the last issue, but still boast the enthusiastic and detailed prospectus of the first issue. This same combination, according to Klepikov, can be found in the National Library of Russia (St. Petersburg). Klepikov also claims that the copy in the State Library of Russia (Moscow) is incomplete. The album includes 10 illustrations, lithographed by masters including Deroy, A. Joly, Lemaitre, Fragonard, Renoux, Jacottet and Dupressoir" (Shapero, 2022)
