19th Century English Color Lithograph 'Eminent Men' Gilt Wood Frame

About the Item

19th English Victorian color lithograph print titled 'Eminent Men' with the faces of prominent men crowded together in a large oval, in the original giltwood frame. Unusual and very cool! A new mat was added at some point, not by me. This is truly a very charming work of art, you can make a game of trying to identify all of the famous (or somewhat famous, or no longer famous...) men in the print. This comes with a companion piece, 'Eminent Women', they were printed as a pair but I am willing to break them up if your preference is for one or the other sexes. (The women are in a separate listing, see last photo) William Warman, Artist; oval lithograph by J. W. Giles, London, published 17th August 1856, by Owen Bailey, 22 Newman Street, Oxford Street.
