[QUOTE="McAdder, post: 429840, member: 7942"]Here is a digitized Version of the book in an earlier edition, (1853 was the 7th printing) [URL]https://books.google.at/books?id=Ywg7AAAAcAAJ[/URL] You find the image on page 80 of the second part. I would say its exactly the image. Maybe the woodblocks were made in Paris because they were better or cheaper or whatever. Or there is an earlier french Edition and the blocks were sold and reused. It says it has 5 Steel engravings and 532 images in the text making it a typical example of a picture bible of the time.
