Rare Antique Rhinoceros Engraving, Buffon Hand-Coloured Print Amsterdam 1769 Description: This striking 18th-century engraving of the Indian rhinoceros, titled Le Rhinoceros, comes from the Dutch edition of Buffon’s monumental natural history, published in Amsterdam by J.H. Schneider in 1769. Appearing as Plate VII in Tome XI, this is one of the most dramatic and desirable mammal plates in the entire series. The image was drawn by Jacques de Sève, the principal artist for Buffon’s Histoire Naturelle, and engraved by C.J. Fritsch, whose finely controlled linework captures the heavy folds, armour-like hide, and distinctive single horn of Rhinoceros unicornis with remarkable accuracy. Buffon’s description of the rhinoceros reflected the 18th century’s growing scientific curiosity about exotic species, and this plate reflects that fascination. The animal is shown standing solidly on a grassy bank against a pale sky and rocky cliff, a composition that emphasises both its mass and its rarity. De Sève’s rendering combines scientific observation with something of the romance and wonder that natural history imagery held for Enlightenment audiences. The armour-plated skin is depicted in sculptural relief through subtle cross-hatching, while carefully applied hand colouring enhances the deep greys, browns, and dusty pinks of the hide and landscape. As with all Schneider-edition plates, the colouring is richer, more transparent, and more refined than in many other continental versions of Buffon. This engraving is an excellent example of 18th-century copperplate technique. The plate mark is clearly visible, the impression strong, and the proportions generous, with wide margins characteristic of the Amsterdam edition. The sheet forms a beautiful standalone artwork but also pairs exceptionally well with other large-format Buffon subjects such as the elephant, camel, or buffalo plates...

Bead-Stringing Playtime – “Kralen Rijen” by Chloë Preston, Dutch Print 1925 Charming and vividly colored Art Deco illustration titled 'Kralen Rijen' (“Stringing Beads”), created by celebrated British artist Chloë Preston and published as a holiday supplement to the Haagsche Post Christmas issue on 25 December 1925 (No. 629). This delightful scene features Preston’s signature Golliwog-style and wooden doll characters, collectively known as the “Peek-a-Boos,” engaged in a playful afternoon of crafting and imagination. At the center, a child in a floral bonnet sits surrounded by dolls and toys, carefully stringing colorful wooden beads. The figures wear a variety of patterned and textured outfits, with details rendered in bold, flat tones typical of Preston’s popular style of children’s illustration during the 1920s. Behind the scene is a stylized backdrop of a black stork (or crane) and palm-like leaves in silhouette, adding a touch of exotic fantasy and oriental-inspired design—a common motif in interwar decorative arts. Chloë Preston (1887–1969) was a prolific British illustrator known for her whimsical and vibrant children’s books, postcards, and prints. Her Peek-a-Boo characters became widely popular across Europe and America. With their round faces, toy-like bodies, and playful expressions, they captivated young audiences and were frequently reproduced in nursery decor and holiday-themed prints. This lithograph, printed by L. van Leer & Co., Amsterdam, reflects the high production values of Haagsche Post’s annual Kerstnummer (Christmas Number), which commissioned contemporary European illustrators to create engaging and collectible artwork for a broad audience. Kralen Rijen is a delightful example of interwar children’s illustration and holds special appeal for collectors of vintage nursery prints...
