Antique Print of the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge in Northern Ireland, 1836

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Carrick -a- Rede'. View of the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, a rope bridge near Ballintoy in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Originates from 'Meyers Universum'. Artists and Engravers: Joseph Meyer (May 9, 1796 - June 27, 1856) was a German industrialist and publisher, most noted for his encyclopedia, Meyers Konversations-Lexikon. Meyer operated very successfully as a publisher, employing a system of serial subscription to publications, which was new at that time. To this end he founded a company, Bibliographisches Institut, in Gotha in 1826. It published several editions of the Bible, works of classical literature (""Miniatur-Bibliothek der deutschen Classiker"", ""Groschen-Bibliothek""), atlases, the world in pictures on steel engravings (""Meyers Universum"", 1833–61, 17 volumes in 12 languages with 80,000 subscribers all over Europe), and an encyclopaedia. Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Minor wear, blank verso. Please study image carefully. Date: 1836 Overall size: 26.5 x 18.5 cm. Image size: 13 x 9.5 cm. Antique prints have long been appreciated for both their aesthetic and investment value. They were the product of engraved, etched or lithographed plates. These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space.
