Insects
This 1891 collection features work by expert wood engraver, Edward Whymper. These wood engravings depict the various insects found while traveling in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador. Whymper was, coincidentally, the first person to summit the Matterhorn of Switzerland in 1865, and is undoubtedly the most talented wood engraver we have ever seen. Wonderful pieces to have in your study or sun room.

1936 Olympics
Leni Riefenstahl photographed these immaculate photogravures of the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Although she changed the face of cinematography indefinitely, and was a dedicated and fiercely gifted photographer, Riefenstahl’s name has forever been seared due to her affiliation with the Third Reich propaganda filmed under her direction.
