1816 CONDOR - K. Jos. Brodtmann - Imp. folio 42.5 cm 'Incunabula of Lithography'
About the Item
Landmark stone lithograph on fine Ziegler watermarked paper.
Extremely rare.
Antique hand colored stone lithograph by Carl Joseph Brodtmann from his extremely rare series:
Naturhistorische Bilder Gallerie aus dem Thierreiche
Lindau, Brodtmann [1816].
Here in fine original hand colour.
Superb plate from this famed ‘incunabula of lithography’.
Reference Winkler 105.
Brodtmann is considered a pioneer in the art of lithography employing techniques for "texture" that are quite similar to that of an aquatint. He produced his lithographs in the post-Linnaean "'Age of Enlightenment" as books illustrations and sets of natural history prints, as Naturhistorische Bilder Gallerie aus dem Thierreiche, with the more expensive sets being hand coloured. Natural history specimens were depicted and sold in these hand-coloured sets for the use of biologists and the aristocracy, the latter being not only great patrons of the arts and sciences, but including many who were actively interested in fauna and flora.

Folio Portraits of Artists, Puligo, Fiesole, Rossi, Gallo, Cosimo
By Giovanni Battista Falda
Located in Norwich, GB
Fine folio including early and finely executed portraits of Renaissance artists by Joachim von Sandrart.
Included are portraits of:
Mino da Fiesole;
Giuliano da Sangallo;
Domenico Puligo;
Andrea da Fiesole, and
Properzia de' Rossi.
The latter is of particular historical significance in that Properzia de' Rossi (c. 1490 Bologna – 1530 Bologna) was a ground-breaking female Italian Renaissance sculptor, the only woman to receive a biography in Vasari's Lives of the Artists. According to Vasari, she taught herself to carve by working with peach-stones. At the end of her life, she was sought out by the Pope Clement VII, who unfortunately found her dead.
Sometimes referred to as the “German Vasari,” Joachim von Sandrart, born in Frankfurt, trained first as a printmaker, notably in Nuremberg, and in Prague with Aegidius Sadeler. He then studied painting from 1625 on, originally in the studio of Gerrit van Honthorst...
