KRAZEISEN, Karl (1794-1878)
Bildnisse augezeichneter Griechen und Philhellenen. Munich: for the author, 1828-[1831]
The first edition of this fine collection of portraits of the heroes of the Greek War of Independence. 'Krazeisen accompanied [Carl Wilhelm] von Heideck and the Bavarian philhellenes to Greece in 1826 as first lieutenant. He was an amateur artist who made drawings throughout his stay in Greece, which included periods in Nauplion, Poros, Damilas, Zakinthos and Athens. His original drawings are now in possession of the National Gallery, Athens' (Blackmer 926).

7 original parts, large folio (565 x 440mm). Letterpress text leaf in each part, 28 lithographic plates printed on india paper, engraved map of Athens and surrounds printed on inside lower wrapper of part VII (without the printed notice accounting for the delay in the publication of the final part sometimes found loosely inserted in copies, some faint scattered spotting, mostly confined to margins in parts V and VI, one or two extreme edges browned). Original printed pale blue wrappers, uncut (part I upper wrapper lightly spotted with lower edge browned and split to joint just holding at head, part VII upper wrapper heavily stained in places, some soiling and staining to lower wrapper just coming through to affect caption of map printed on inside rear cover, the remainder with extremties lightly rubbed with a few splits to joints and occasional tiny marginal tears).
