How old is Currier and Ives?
1 Answer
Currier and Ives is more than 175 years old. The prominent American printmaking business, headquartered in New York, operated from 1835 to 1907. Nathaniel Currier started his business on his own but later merged with James Merritt Ives, becoming "Currier and Ives" in 1857. They produced and sold hand-colored lithographs, which could be produced relatively quickly and cheaply. Explore a collection of Currier and Ives prints on 1stDibs.
