Count Andrasy was a Hungarian nobleman who fled Budapest when it was overtaken in 1849 by the Austrians. He traveled to the east; his work first appeared in Hungarian in 1853. The majority of the plates are big game hunting/sporting in nature, but there are also topographical plates as well. Text in German, captions in French and Hungarian.
