Hi Anne, Thanks for linking Endymion so quickly.

Checking all the links, I find that:
[*]both links under the cover thumbnail take me to a red Windows warning webpage that the IA page link is unsafe.
This has happened once before on another project of mine which took a long time to resolve itself.
[*]The online text link should point to Endymion here: https://archive.org/details/voicesofnightoth00long/page/48
instead of to The Village Blacksmith on 46

I'm off to bed now. Nitey nite.

I've changed the text link as your MC is busy. the image links work for me, Anne

Thanks. Don't know what's going on with the warning. I'll look around and see what I find.

Cover picture by Gustavo Strafforello (born: 1820, died: 1903) - La patria, geografia dell’Italia. Provincia di Roma. Unione Tipografico-Editrice, Torino, 1894. depicted are works by Raffaello (Sanzio da Urbino; born: 1483, died: 1520) . the Loggia di Amore e Psiche in Villa Farnesina

(actually, i couldnt verify this. on archive is a 1902 version of this book and this picture seems to be missing?)

thank you and cheers,

caught - and linked.
I'm fairly confident about the age of the drawing, you don't seem to see any of this detail done once photography was available and as for it being produced after 1923, that is hard to believe. covers are often missing on scanned books , they are either not scanned , have been damaged or removed wueh the book was recovered

Finish line is already visible so I want to pre-claim the cover for '1001 Nacht - Band 4' as you can see it in the first post of the thread viewtopic.php?f=12&t=70448
