The Long 19th Century Digested sheds light on the visual literacy of the Long 19th Century by reviving the fresh curiosity of the epoch through a cross-section of the Zeitgeist as this came down to us in print. A two-volume collection of pamphlets reproduces a diversified range of books originally published between 1789 and 1914 in the style of a Wunderkammer. Curio and culture coalesce in a visual narrative that comprises the tentative and the demonstrated, the near and the far, the familiar and the uncanny, the enjoyable and the challenging, the relatable and the undecipherable.
Individual pamphlet is assorted. Please inquire customer@3standardstoppage.com for details if you'd like to purchase the set. (Unsolicited set orders will not be processed.)
