1784 View of the Habit of a Tahitian Woman Dancing by Alex Hogg

9.5" x 15" copper engraved image on period papers, published by Alex Hogg , famed promoter of Cook's voyages . This from the Hogg edition , octavo folio of Cook's 3rd voyage from which he did not return. Condition is fine with typical oxidation at edges, trimmed tight at bottom, corner chipped, hidden when framed. Papers are thin , hand laid and stable, typical of Hogg's later and more cost effective publications. Nice image
