The Mendelssohns on Honeymoon

This is the first publication of the joint illustrated diary kept by the composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and his wife Cécile, during their honeymoon and the early months of their marriage in 1837. It covers both travels in the Rhineland and Black Forest, and Mendelssohn's visit to England later that year, and includes unpublished correspondence, drawings, and watercolours by Mendelssohn.
