Antique Print of the Canadian Horse by O. Eerelman, 1898

About the Item

The lithograph of the Canadian Horse, part of the esteemed Dutch edition of "Paardenrassen Kunstalbum," is an exquisite representation of this distinguished breed. This album is a collection of 41 lithographed plates based on the paintings by the renowned Dutch artist Otto Eerelman, known for his vibrant and lifelike portrayals of various horse breeds. The Canadian Horse lithograph is printed on premium heavy textured paper that emulates the tactile quality of a painted canvas, allowing the image to resonate with the depth and richness akin to that of the original artwork. Measuring 59 by 44.5 centimeters, the lithograph is a substantial piece intended for display in prominent locations such as libraries and salons of the affluent, serving as a statement piece for enthusiasts of equine art. The "Paardenrassen Kunstalbum" was published by Schillemans & Van Belkum in the city of Zutphen, with the project commencing around 1898 and proceeding in four-print installments, elevating it to a luxury item of its era. The lithographs were crafted by J.L. Goffart, a prominent Belgian lithographer and printer of the time, whose work captured the essence of Eerelman's original paintings and brought them to life in print form. The collaboration between Eerelman's artistic vision and Goffart's technical expertise resulted in a series that is highly regarded for its artistic and historical value. Otto Eerelman received his initial art education in his hometown of Groningen and further honed his skills in Paris and Brussels. By the late 19th century, he was established in The Hague, where his reputation flourished, leading to prestigious commissions including those from the Dutch Royal Family. Notable among his works is the portrait of a young Queen Wilhelmina with her pony, reflecting Eerelman's later focus on animal and particularly equine subjects. The lithographs are accompanied by descriptive texts from E.A.L. Quadekker, a military veterinarian and respected author on equine topics, whose writings lend scholarly insight to the images. The Canadian Horse lithograph, like others in the collection, is considered one of the finest depictions of horse breeds, crafted to captivate and educate the elite of society. Due to its size and the need to preserve its integrity, this lithograph is shipped flat, with potential extra shipping charges based on the destination, ensuring that it arrives in pristine condition for collectors and aficionados alike.
