Zustand: Very Good. in-folio grande (560 x 362mm), pp. (2), 8, (42, di testo descrittivo); legatura in mezza pelle coeva su piatti in tela editoriale con titolo impresso in oro (estremità graffiate, un po' lisa). Con un titolo litografico e 21 magnifiche e grandiose tavole a colori a piena pagina di J.H. Lowes, tratte dagli acquarelli di Walton,  ciascuna montata come sempre con una didascalia stampata e il testo descrittivo a seguire. Le luminose cromolitografie con colori pastello traducono perfettamente gli acquerelli a soggetto alpino, dipinte dall'artista inglese (1832-1880) con occhio sognante e quasi mistico per l'amata montagna, tra le vedute più significative quelle delle Alpi Occidentali, tra cui il Cervino, il Monte Bianco, il Monviso,  Val Tournanche, la Valle d'Aosta, la Dent Du Midi e la Grivola.  L'introduzione ed il testo di commento alle immagini sono del reverendo Bonney (1833-1923), studioso, geologo ed amico di Walton, studioso amico dell'artista nonché presidente dell'Alpine Club, insieme a William Mathews. Poco nota, seppur citata dal Perret, è questa tiratura, "reissue", dell'anno successivo alla prima (1867); entrambe sono rare. Bell'esemplare, lievi tracce di polvere e sporadiche fioriture, più marcate ai margini, un po' di offset derivato dai contorni delle tavole.Affascinante monumentale galleria di paesaggi alpini: ''The opening of the Val de Tignes'', ''Monte Viso, from the Col de la Croix'', ''Monte Viso, from the South'', ''Winter'', ''The Grand Paradis, from near Cogne'', ''The Grivola, from near the Col d'Arbole'', ''Near Courmayeur - Cloud Streamers'', ''A torrent - Val Tournanche'', ''The Velan, from near Aosta'', ''In the Valley of Aosta'', ''Mont Blanc, from the Col d'Anterne'', ''The Dent du Midi, from the Valley of the Rhone'', ''The Dent du Midi, from near Champery'', ''The Cascade de Roget and the Point de Salle'', ''The Pont de Tenneverges'', ''The Gorner glacier'', ''The Matterhorn'', ''The Weisshorn, from near St. Niklaus'', ''The Aiguilles verte and du Dru'', ''Crevasses on the mer de glace'' e ''The Glaciers de Trient''.

Elijah Walton's fine colour plate views of the Western Alps, including the Matterhorn, Mont Blanc, Monte Viso, Aosta Valley, Dent Du Midi, and The Grivola. The present edition is the reissue of the original subscribers' edition first published in 1867. In 1862 William Matthews, the founder of the Alpine Club, first commissioned the landscape artist Elijah Walton to travel to the Alps, and for the next five years he journeyed to various parts of the region to paint. The text for Peaks and Valleys is by the geologist T.G. Bonney who, having himself made nine visits to the Alps, testifies to the Ruskinian authenticity of Walton's views, praising them favourably to 'photographs of mountains [which] are rarely satisfactory, and generally make them appear lower and far less impressive than they really are.' (Introduction). Folio (55.9 x 36 cm). 8pp, additional tinted lithographed title, 21 chromolithographs by J.H. Lowes after Elijah Walton, each mounted as issued with printed caption in margin, tissue guards, each plate with descriptive text, inner hinges a little cracked, some light spotting to endpapers, previous owner's signature on front pastedown; publisher's original brown half morocco, spine professionally restored, cloth boards with title gilt lettered to upper cover, all edges gilt, a very good copy.
