About the Item

Antique print of Widows in Florida mourning over their departed husbands assisted by King Hermafrodite and Widows in Florida spreading their hairs on the graves of their husbands.

Moubach, 1727-1738 (French edition 1721-1725). An English edition called 'Ceremonies and religious Rites of the various nations of the known world.', appeared in 1733.
