Summary

Description
English: Print from steel engraving titled Voute sous la Chute du Niagara - Niagara Falls - from 1st edition of Jean-Baptiste-Gaspard Roux de Rochelle's Etats-Unis d'Amérique. Paris: Firmin Didot Freres, [1837], approx. page size 14 x 22 cm, approx. image size 9 x 14 cm. Hand coloring, drawn by Jacques-Hippolyte van der Burch, engraved by Chollet.

From a set of illustrations for Roux de Rochelle's work on the United States. Roux de Rochelle, the French Minister to the U.S., included this volume in a large series entitled L'Univers. The American volume included 96 images of the United States and it was first issued in 1837. Beginning in 1839 the plates were reissued in several French editions, as well as editions in Italian, Spanish and German.

This impression was perhaps from 1841 Barcelona edition Historio de los Estados-Unidos de America.
