Elegant 1844 Lithograph of a Persian Woman in Traditional Attire
Located in Langweer, NL
This handcoloured lithograph titled "Femme Persane" vividly captures the traditional attire of a Persian woman, showcasing the rich cultural heritage and detailed craftsmanship of 19th-century Persia.
The print is part of Auguste Wahlen's "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde," published in 1844 in Paris.
The image stands out for its intricate detailing, especially the veil and robe, which are adorned with elaborate patterns and vibrant colors typical of Persian fashion.
The woman's attire includes a veil that covers the face partially, known as a "ruband," which was commonly worn in public by women in some regions of Persia as a sign of modesty and status. Her robe, layered and colorful, reflects the sophisticated textile techniques of the time, including embroidery and fabric dyeing, which were highly regarded skills in Persian society.
The attractiveness of such prints lies in their ability to convey the elegance and intricacy of Persian women's fashion, providing a window into the everyday life and social customs of the time.
The use of handcoloured lithography, a popular printing technique of the era, allows for vivid coloration and detailed representation, making these prints highly desirable for collectors and enthusiasts of historical fashion and cultural heritage.

Vibrant Handcolored Depictions of Japanese Costumes from 1844
Located in Langweer, NL
Vibrant Depictions of 19th Century Japanese Costumes from Auguste Wahlen’s Masterpiece
These prints depict various figures from Japanese society, ranging from a humble fisherman's family to a nobleman, a ceremonial samurai, and infantry musicians.
Each figure is intricately dressed in traditional attire, reflecting their status and roles.
The prints were created by the artist Auguste Wahlen as part of his celebrated work *"Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde"* (Customs, Manners, and Dress of All the Peoples of the World), published in 1843.
The vibrant colors and fine detailing were achieved using lithography, a printmaking technique that involves drawing on a flat surface with a grease-based medium and using a chemical process to transfer the image. The accuracy of the costumes and lively scenes make these lithographs especially appealing. The contrast between the vivid costumes and soft shading adds depth, capturing the essence of Japanese life during this period.
Attraction of the Prints:
The appeal lies in their historic and ethnographic value, showcasing detailed attire and customs from another era, accompanied by the richness of the lithography technique. The vibrant colors, clean lines, and the representation of both nobility and common folk offer viewers a rich visual experience, portraying a distant culture with authenticity and grace.

19th Century Lepidoptera: An Illustrated Compendium of Moths and Butterflies
Located in Langweer, NL
An antique hand-colored engraving. This particular illustration focuses on various moth and butterfly species, showcasing their wing patterns and body shapes in vibrant colors and with a high level of detail.
The different specimens are numbered and named at the bottom, likely corresponding to their scientific names, which are partially legible and written in French. These include various types of moths and butterflies with distinct markings, such as eye-like spots on their wings, which are often used in nature as a form of mimicry or to ward off predators.
The artistic style is consistent with scientific illustrations of the 19th century, aimed at providing an accurate representation of the insects for study and reference. The paper shows signs of aging, indicating the historical value of the print. This type of illustration would have been a vital educational tool at the time, combining scientific interest with an appreciation for the beauty of these creatures. The illustrator has captured both the structural and aesthetic qualities of the insects, which would have been important for both scientific taxonomy and for those with a general interest in natural history.
The image appears to be a caption section from an antique hand-colored engraving, listing the names of various moth and butterfly species. The names are in French and are likely to correspond to the illustrations of the specimens on the main engraving. Here's the list of the species with a description based on the names provided:
1. **SÉSIE freloniforme**: This is likely a species of clearwing moth, which mimics the appearance of a hornet or wasp (hence "freloniforme", resembling a hornet). Clearwing moths are known for their transparent wings and mimicry for defense against predators.
2. **PROCRIS du Statice**: This could refer to a species of moth or butterfly associated with sea-lavender plants...
