        Est: $400 - $800

        This scarce, hand-colored lithograph is an early view of American life or locations is from Henry Lewis's Das illustrirte Mississippithal, dargestellt in 80 nach der Natur aufgenommenen Ansichten von Wasserfalle zu St. Anthony an bis zum Golf von Mexico. The work was published in Dusseldorf by C. H. Muller in Aachen for Arnz & Co. between 1854 and 1858. It is the best series displaying western American city views published prior to the Civil War and a great source of life along the Mississippi in the mid-19th century. The work was issued in parts making the complete set very hard to find. The last record for the complete work being sold was by Bonhams in 2010 where it sold for $61,000. "The excessive rarity of Das illustrirte Mississippithal and the beauty of the colored lithographs... have combined to make it a collector's prize eagerly searched for." (Heilbron) This work has also been referred to as "the great early color plate book of the Mississippi region." (Streeter) "One of the half-dozen great and rare illustrated books relating to North America." (Graff) Lewis depicted several views along the Mississippi including St. Louis, St. Paul, Dubuque, Nauvoo, Natchez, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans. His work also depicted scenes of Native American life. "This book is famous for its colored plates of places and scenes along the Mississippi in the second quarter of the nineteenth century. These include views of such well-known cities as St. Louis, St. Paul, Dubuque, Burlington, Keokuk, Memphis, Vicksburg, Natchez, and Baton Rouge. At the end is a magnificent folding plate of New Orleans." (Streeter) Henry Lewis (c1819-1904) was born in England, but emigrated to America at the age of 10. He produced a monumental, 1,000-foot panorama of the Mississippi River which helped him receive acclaim from President Zachary Taylor. He performed a number of sketching trips of the Mississippi between 1846 and 1848 which he used to create his historic work, Das illustrirte Mississippithal... The publisher, Arnz & Co., and Lewis believed the work would be of particular interest to the immigrants coming to America at the time. He retired to Dusseldorf in the 1850s and served as U.S. consular agent.
