Heraklion Crete Candia City View Harbor Scene Naval Combat 1686 Mallet print Russo-Japanese war some toningDie Stadt Candia. (Old Prints, Mallet Prints, Greece, Crete, Heraklion, Candia, Harbor View, City View, Naval Battle). Issued 1686, Paris, for A. M. Mallet. Charming 17th century copper engraved birds eye view print with lovely hand color. The image has a near folk art feel, a style unique to this historical era. Utterly unlike anything produced today and of modern aesthetic appeal for this reason. Mostly clean and well preserved example, the image
