This is the joint illustrated diary kept by the composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and his wife Cecile, 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covers both travels in the Rhineland and Black Forest, and Mendelssohn's visit to England later that year, and includes unpublished correspondence, drawings, and watercolours by Mendelssohn. This book is intended for students and scholars of Mendelssohn; general readers interested in musical life and travel in Germany and England in the first half of the 19th century.
