Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene – Antique German Chromolithograph, c. 1895
Located in Langweer, NL
Jesus Appears to Mary Magdalene – Antique German Chromolithograph, c. 1895 This striking late 19th-century German chromolithograph depicts the moving biblical moment in which the risen Christ appears to Mary Magdalene following the Resurrection. Christ is shown standing in quiet majesty, halo radiant with divine light, His right hand placed gently over His heart in a gesture of compassion and reassurance. Mary Magdalene kneels before Him with deep devotion, her long flowing hair and rich garments emphasizing both humility and reverence. The composition is set within a tranquil garden landscape, traditionally associated with the Resurrection narrative, reinforcing the spiritual symbolism of rebirth, forgiveness, and divine mercy. Christ’s red tunic and deep blue mantle radiate warmth and solemnity, while the soft golden halo creates a luminous focal point that draws the eye immediately to His face. This scene, known in Christian tradition as *Noli Me Tangere* (“Touch Me Not”), represents one of the most emotionally powerful moments of the Gospel story. It became a highly favored subject in Catholic devotional art of the late 19th century, commonly displayed in prayer corners, chapels, religious schools, and family interiors. Produced using high-quality chromolithography, this print achieves exceptional painterly depth, with delicate shading in the flesh tones, refined folds in the drapery, and beautifully layered landscape colors. The gold highlights of the halos and the saturated reds and blues are especially well preserved, reflecting the superior production standards of German devotional publishers during this period. This is a visually commanding and spiritually meaningful artwork, highly desirable for Catholic collectors, sacred art interiors, and serious devotional art collections. CONDITION REPORT Good antique condition overall. Light, even age toning to the paper consistent with late 19th-century chromolithographs. Minor edge wear and very gentle corner softening visible upon close inspection. No major stains, no tears, and no restoration observed. Colors remain strong and vivid. FRAMING TIPS This print will display beautifully in a classic gilt or softly antiqued gold wooden frame to echo the sacred halo tones. For a more restrained interior, a dark walnut or black lacquer frame with a wide ivory mat and museum glass will create a dramatic devotional presentation.

Swans on a Quiet Lake – Graceful Antique Bird Chromolithograph c.1880
Located in Langweer, NL
Swans on a Quiet Lake – Graceful Antique Bird Chromolithograph c.1880 This serene late 19th-century ornithological chromolithograph depicts a peaceful lakeside scene with swans in different stages of maturity, presented within a broad, open landscape of calm water, grassy banks, and distant trees. In the foreground, an adult white swan glides across the water with its neck elegantly curved, while nearby a grey-brown juvenile swan and an older, darker bird stand at the water’s edge. The composition gently illustrates growth and variation within the species, a common and instructive theme in natural history illustration of the period. The swan, long regarded as a symbol of grace, purity, and tranquility, was a favored subject in 19th-century European ornithological works. The contrast between the bright white plumage of the adult bird and the softer grey tones of the younger swans is rendered with great sensitivity, emphasizing differences in age and development. The surrounding landscape is deliberately understated, allowing the birds to remain the focal point while conveying a convincing natural habitat. Produced using chromolithography, this print displays soft, harmonious coloration and smooth tonal transitions. Pale blues and greens dominate the water and sky, complemented by gentle earth tones along the shoreline. Fine feather detailing and subtle reflections in the water demonstrate the technical quality of late 19th-century chromolithographic printing, which sought to combine scientific accuracy with decorative appeal. This print is ideal for collectors of antique bird prints, waterfowl imagery, and pastoral wildlife scenes. It also works beautifully in interior settings such as living rooms, bedrooms, nurseries, country houses, or calm contemporary spaces, where its balanced composition and soothing palette add a sense of elegance and quiet refinement. Condition report Good antique condition. Light foxing and mild age-related toning visible, mainly in the margins, consistent with chromolithographs of this period. The image area remains clean and well preserved, with no major tears or losses observed. Framing tips Frame with a wide off-white or soft beige mat and a natural wood, walnut, or simple black frame. This enhances the gentle color palette and gives the print a timeless, museum-style presentation. Keywords antique bird print, swan illustration, swans on a lake, waterfowl art...

Antique and Vintage Prints for Wall Decor

Prints are works of art produced in multiple editions. Though several copies of a specific artwork can exist, collectors consider antique and vintage prints originals when they have been manually created by the artist or are “impressions” that are part of the artist’s intent for the work.

Modern artists use a range of printmaking techniques to produce different types of prints such as relief, intaglio and planographic. Relief prints are created by cutting away a printing surface to leave only a design. Ink or paint is applied to the raised parts of the surface, and it is used to stamp or press the design onto paper or another surface. Relief prints include woodcuts, linocuts and engravings.

Intaglio prints are the opposite of relief prints in that they are incised into the printing surface. The artist cuts the design into a block, plate or other material and then coats it with ink before wiping off the surface and transferring the design to paper through tremendous pressure. Intaglio prints have plate marks showing the impression of the original block or plate as it was pressed onto the paper.

Artists create planographic prints by drawing a design on a stone or metal plate using a grease crayon. The plate is washed with water, then ink is spread over the plate and it adheres to the grease markings. The image is then stamped on paper to make prints.

All of these printmaking methods have an intricate process, although each can usually transfer only one color of ink. Artists use separate plates or blocks for multiple colors, and together these create one finished work of art.
