From Hong-Kong to the
Himalayas; or, Three thousand miles through India By Edward Warren Clark, published by the American tract society, New York, 1880 |
||||||||||
|
A travelogue, Clark recounts
his journey and observations across a vast expanse, from Hong Kong
through India and into the soaring heights of the Himalayan region.
The cover is bound with crimson cloth, bearing gleaming gold-stamped
temple spires and intricate ornamental borders, blending the
elaborate illustrative style of the Late Victorian Aesthetic
Movement with the tiered roofs, carved pillars, and ornate motifs
characteristic of Hindu temple architecture. |
