About the Item
Lithograph in colors on card stock (as issued), 15 x 10 5/8 inches (380 x 268 mm), full margins. In good condition with some minor toning and some extremely minor and unobtrusive edge wear at the left sheet edge, well outside of the image area. A very fine image from Boys' Picturesque Architecture in Paris, Ghent, Antwerp, Rouen etc,. Printed by Charles Hullmandel, deluxe edition.
This image, which was produced entirely by means of lithography, was printed in oil color, and appears exactly as it was pulled from the press. It represents part of the first real challenge to the supremacy in England of the hand colored aquatint as a media, which is an older technique in which the hand coloring is applied after the image is pulled from the press. An impression of this work may be found in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
