ABOUT THE ILLUSTRATIONS: During the mid-19th Century, the Tallis publishing family were well-known for their production of steel-engraved maps, which were highly sought after by collectors today. These engravings include detailed vignettes of life plus ornately illustrated frames. Their artisans were without question the most skilled of that age. This creative precision is revealed in the dozens of superbly detailed engravings in 'The Complete Works of Flavius Joseph' depicting Biblical and historic scenes.
