Seated Spanish Nobleman: The Visage of Authority, 1847
Located in Langweer, NL
Title: "Seated Spanish Nobleman: The Visage of Authority"
Description: This original antique detailed print portrays a Spanish nobleman from the Middle Ages, seated in a commanding position that denotes his high social status and authority. He is depicted in a stately pose, exuding an air of confident repose that reflects his powerful position within the societal hierarchy.
The nobleman is dressed in a long blue tunic, a color often associated with nobility and depth of character. His tunic is complemented by a rose-colored undershirt, a combination that suggests both wealth and taste. Over his attire drapes a heavy, deep blue cloak, a mark of his status, which provides both warmth and an impression of gravitas.
On his head, he wears a broad-brimmed green hat, which is both a stylish and practical accessory, shading his eyes and symbolizing his affinity with the outdoors and perhaps his participation in hunting, a favorite pastime of the nobility.
His footwear consists of red shoes, possibly made of fine leather or velvet, adding a striking contrast to his ensemble. The nobleman's demeanor is one of contemplation, with a hand resting on a money pouch at his belt, indicating his control over wealth and economic affairs.
The chair in which he sits is adorned with simple yet elegant ornamentation, including a valance with floral motifs, signifying a connection to nature and his domain. The setting is minimalistic, focusing the viewer’s attention on the nobleman’s figure and attire.
Through this print, we gain insight into the fashion and symbols of status that were prevalent among the Spanish nobility...

Courtly Splendor: A Nobleman at Emperor Sigismund's Court, 1847
Located in Langweer, NL
The image depicts a man identified as a "Gentilhomme de la cour de Sigismond, empereur d'Allemagne," which translates to "Gentleman of the court of Sigismund, Emperor of Germany."
This individual is portrayed in a profile stance, dressed in attire that is indicative of the high-status courtiers during the time of Emperor Sigismund, who reigned in the early 15th century. He is wearing a turban-like headgear, which reflects the influence of Eastern fashion on European court attire, possibly due to the Ottoman influence or the general exchange of culture during the Crusades and subsequent interactions.
His doublet is richly patterned and he has puffed sleeves in red, which were fashionable among the nobility during the period. The garment is accented with a decorative belt that holds what appears to be a purse or a pouch. He also sports tight blue hose and pointed shoes, which complete the ensemble typical of a nobleman or a high-ranking court official in the Holy Roman Empire.
Egg whites can be applied as a varnish over pigments to enhance their brightness and to protect the colors. This application could make the colors appear more vivid and also add a slight glossy sheen to the surface of the image.
Egg yolk, on the other hand, was commonly used as a binding agent in paint. It forms the basis of tempera paint, a medium that was widely used before the advent of oil painting. Egg yolk helps to create a durable and long-lasting color that adheres well to various surfaces.
In the context of the print from 1847, it's less likely that egg whites or yolks were used directly on the print, as by that time, commercial printing processes would have been more advanced and less reliant on such manual methods. However, if this print is a representation of an earlier style or is meant to mimic the appearance of hand-painted manuscripts...

Copeland Plate, Reticulated, Sublime Flowers by Greatbatch, 1848 (3)
By Copeland
Located in London, GB
This is a beautiful plate made by Copeland in 1848. It is decorated with a sublimely painted flower arrangement by the artist Greatbatch.
We have two sets of 8 of these plates available, as well as a few more separate ones; please see separate listings.
The Copeland factory was the third iteration of the famous Spode factory, after the "Copeland & Garrett" period which transitioned into the "Copeland" period in about 1833. The Spode/Copeland factory was one of the most prominent potteries right from the start of English porcelain production in the late 1700s to the demise of the industry in the 1960s and ultimate closure in the early 21st Century. In fact it was the founder Josiah Spode who was responsible for the recipe for bone china that made English china production so successful in the two centuries to come. Throughout all the changes, their items have always remained of exceptionally high quality and many of the designs have become iconic.
This plate was potted in fine white bone china, the rim meticulously reticulated in the "Gothic" shape. Reticulation was very time consuming and difficult, and just this detail would have made this plate expensive. The sublimely painted flower arrangement painted in the centre were done by Greatbatch, one of the well-known floral artists working for Copeland. Greatbatch was active between 1845 and 1860, and worked together with his brother R. Greatbatch, who was a talented gilder. They exhibited at the Great Exhibition of 1851.
This plate would have belonged to a sublimely expensive dessert service. It is stamped with the small blue Copeland mark with interlocking C's, and painted in red with the pattern number 7913, dating it at the year 1848.
Documentation: A plate of this service is shown on page 80 of Steven Smith's "Spode & Copeland: Over Two Hundred Years of Fine China and...
