This handcoloured lithograph titled "Jeune fille indoue de la haute classe" depicts a young high-class Indian woman adorned in traditional attire. The print is part of Auguste Wahlen's "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde," published in 1844. This lithograph utilizes handcolouring techniques to enhance the vividness and detail of the traditional Indian saree, which is characterized by its bright pink and green hues and intricate draping style. The saree, a timeless symbol of Indian femininity, is elegantly wrapped, showcasing the elaborate textile craftsmanship of India. The woman's jewelry, including bangles and necklaces, reflects the cultural importance of adornments in Indian society, often indicating social status and personal wealth. This print is captivating due to its rich depiction of cultural attire and the graceful demeanor of the woman, which together illustrate the refined aesthetic and social codes of India's upper class during the 19th century. The lithograph not only serves as a beautiful piece of art but also as an important cultural document that provides insights into the traditional attire and societal norms of historical India.

Napoleonic Imperial Guard Grenadiers, Officer and Soldier – French Prints Description: This fine pair of hand-colored 19th-century prints depicts members of Napoleon Bonaparte’s elite Imperial Guard Grenadiers, one of the most prestigious and recognizable units of the Napoleonic army. On the left, an officer and a soldier of the Guard are shown standing and conversing, their uniforms rendered with careful attention to rank, posture, and insignia. On the right, a fusilier grenadier of the Imperial Guard is depicted in full dress (grande tenue), standing alone in a composed, almost ceremonial stance. The Grenadiers of the Imperial Guard were the embodiment of Napoleonic military prestige. Selected for their experience, discipline, and physical stature, they served both as an elite fighting force and as a visual symbol of imperial authority. These prints emphasize uniform details such as the bearskin-style headgear with plumes, cross-belts, muskets, gaiters, and the distinctive color palette of the Guard, making them valuable visual documents for historians, collectors, and military uniform specialists. The prints originate from *Histoire de l’Empereur Napoléon* by P.-M. Laurent de l’Ardèche, published in Paris in 1843, with illustrations after designs by Horace Vernet. Vernet was the foremost visual chronicler of Napoleonic France, and his imagery played a key role in shaping the 19th-century perception of Napoleon’s army, balancing historical accuracy with heroic idealization. These works were intended not only as book illustrations but also as standalone images suitable for framing, which explains their refined execution and enduring decorative appeal. Offered together, this pair forms a coherent and highly attractive set, ideal for collectors of Napoleonic history, French military art...

Title: Hand-Coloured Lithograph of Armoured Knight and Horse in Tournament Dress Description: This exquisite hand-coloured lithograph presents a fully armoured knight mounted on a similarly armoured horse, highlighting the grandeur of medieval tournament culture. Drawn from *Der Rittersaal: Eine Geschichte des Ritterthums* (1842) by Friedrich Martin von Reibisch and Dr. Franz Kottenkamp, the plate exemplifies the craftsmanship of tournament armor and equestrian regalia. The knight is clad in articulated plate armor, intricately engraved and polished to perfection, reflecting the martial prowess and status of a noble warrior. He holds a ceremonial poleaxe, often seen in jousts or tournaments as both a practical weapon and a symbol of chivalry. His plumed helmet, adorned with vibrant red and yellow feathers, adds an element of spectacle befitting a medieval tournament. The horse is draped in a richly patterned caparison, a cloth covering adorned with intricate geometric designs, likely symbolizing the knight's heraldic identity. The ornate horse armor...
