Description: Title: Arts in Virginia, Volume 13, Number 3. Author: George Cruger. Publisher: Virginia Museum, Richmond. Publication Date: 1973 Format: softcover. Length: 32 pages Size: approximately 7 7/8" by 12". Illustrations: 17 engravings by Theodore De Bry. Description: “A recent prized addition to the Museum collection is given thorough coverage in this issue of AIV. Editor George Cruger has studied and written on the Museum's copy of the illustrated version of Thomas Hariot's “A briefe and true report of the new found land of Virginia ...,” which was published in 1590 by Flemish engraver Theodore De Bry with illustrations after John White. The book is fascinating material on many levels: history, anthropology, printmaking, bibliophilism, and, even, journalism. It represents, as well, the fascination that ‘Virginia’ held for the people of Europe and Great Britain, and the untempered curiosity that was to drive them to overwhelm that vast new land.” Condition: Good. Some minor bumping and discoloration of the cover.
