"Singularitez Curieuses des Royaumes de Maroc et de Fez dans la Barbarie, avec la Description de Quelques Usages et Coutumes des Habitans de ce Pays...", Chatelain, Henry Abraham

Very decorative sheet with illustrated views of the people and customs of the Barbary Coast as well as a small map (6.5 x 4.3") of the region entitled La Barbarie. The text in the center of the sheet describes the Kingdoms of Morocco and Fez and their resident's habits in dress, marriage and burials. The punishment of a criminal is depicted in the top right view.
