Castles of France and the waterfront of Marseille sit beside the Caucasus, the Amur and the American Southwest in the drawings of Dieudonné Auguste Lancelot. Lancelot (1822–1894) was a French draughtsman and illustrator who supplied images for travel and geographical publications. The prints after his drawings include Roman streets and buildings, views associated with Jerusalem and central Asia, and river and mountain scenes in China and Nicaragua, with passes, glaciers and everyday life alongside city architecture. French architectural studies around Marseille, Lyon and Nantes form a substantial group, and a view of Santa Fe credits Lancelot with the drawing and Armand Kohl with the engraving.
