"Sailing Ships of the Romantic Era - A 19th Century Album of Water Colours by Antoine Roux by Jean Meissonnier is a stunning tribute to one of France's greatest marine painters. This beautifully produced 1968 first edition from Edita Lausanne showcases the Roux family's artistry through a curated collection of exquisite 19th-century watercolours, capturing the majesty and detail of sailing ships in their golden age. Meissonnier's accompanying text provides historical commentary and insight into Roux's meticulous technique, the evolution of maritime design, and the significance of the vessels depicted — from merchant ships to naval frigates.

Presented as Limited Edition No. 177 of only 3,000 copies, this collector's volume comes housed in its original sleeve, reflecting the publisher's hallmark quality and craftsmanship. With its rich illustrations and scholarly yet elegant commentary, it stands as both an art historical document and a celebration of maritime heritage. This edition will greatly appeal to collectors of nautical art, maritime historians, and enthusiasts of 19th-century seafaring and ship portraiture."
