Pictures from Pictureseque Egypt, by George Moritz Ebers (1837 – 1898), translated by Clara Bell, Cassell & Co. Ltd., London, 1878, and measuring approx. 290x370mm (44.5 x 14.5 inches), is a huge two-volume collection of engravings and text. The illustrations that are signed are by Leopold Carl Müller (1834 – 1892). Copies of the plates are often sold on eBay, which is sad because it often means a bookseller has ripped apart a copy of the book.
This is volume one; the next gallery is for volume two.
There is also an entry in the Nuttall Encyclopædia for George Moritz Ebers.
These books are big (about A3, or 11x17") and did not fit on my older scanner. They’re pretty heavy, too!
