This engraving depicts the Colossus of Rhodes, a statue of the Greek sun god Helios, and one of the seven ancient wonders of the world. The work was engraved as part of Middleton's Complete System of Geography, an ambitious attempt to bring the entire world's natural and political geography, ethnography, zoology, and more into a single publication. The piece is well presented in an antique silver gilt frame. Unsigned. On laid.
Condition
The condition is typical for a picture of this age including some discolouration and light foxing. Wear and scuffs to the frame.
