Copper engraving with hand colouring, 25.2 x 18 cm (plate-mark including caption), spots of browning and the margins rather stained, old folds, in good condition. Fine costume engraving of a Turkish artillery-man, prepared for "Costumes orientaux inédits, dessinés d'après nature en 1796, 1797, 1798, 1802 et 1808.", by the French engraver Georges-Jacques Gatine (c. 1773-1841) after an original drawing by Manzoni.
