1880s European Lifesize Stone Lithography Poster with an Officer

About the Item

Awesome stone lithography poster with an officer having a liquor. This life-size poster is so eye-catching! It has spectacular colors and Size . +/- 64,56 inch Heigh , +/- 164 cm Heigh ! It dates from the 1880s from the Alsatian region of France, from Wissembourg, a place along the French Border with Germany. These posters were created during a time that the Alsace Region belonged to Germany and the town was called Weissenburg. It was the site of the first battle of the Franco-Prussian War, which helps to understand its fluctuation between France, Germany and back again. This poster has traces of use, but for the age of almost 150 years not that bad as it is paper and not yet linen backed. It has been folded and has crinkles. Mostly around the borders where they needed to be glued to become one large poster. 3 parts did become 1 poster. Imagine this one being framed, and your wall has eye-catching wall decoration. Even if you don't have anything with war related things, they have something attractive due the sparkling red color and the caricature in it.
