Engravings of Egypt's Sphinx and Hermopolis: Early European Exploration, c.1795

Engravings of Egypt's Sphinx and Hermopolis: Early European Exploration, c.1795

Located in Langweer, NL

The two engravings displayed side by side depict monumental structures from ancient Egypt and are dated to the late 18th century. They are both examples of European interest in documenting and exploring Egyptian antiquities during the period of early exploration and fascination with the ancient world. ### Image 1: Profile View of the Remains of the Sphinx near the Pyramids of Egypt - Subject: The Sphinx, one of Egypt's most iconic monuments, is shown with its body largely buried in sand, as it was during this period before modern excavations. The figures atop and around the Sphinx provide scale and show the magnitude of the monument. The image also captures European explorers and researchers measuring the Sphinx, emphasizing the curiosity and study of ancient civilizations. - Age: This engraving likely dates from the late 18th century, during a time when European expeditions to Egypt were becoming more common, particularly following Napoleon's campaign in the late 1790s, which sparked Egyptomania across Europe. - Maker: The engraving is credited to Denon and Lege, both of whom were active artists and engravers during this time. Dominique Vivant Denon...

John O'Hara, The xxxxxxx Best, 3-Color Serigraph

John O'Hara, The xxxxxxx Best, 3-Color Serigraph

By John O'Hara

Located in SAINT LOUIS, MO

John O'Hara's famous The xxxxxxx Best painting is now a 3-Color Serigraph on recycled Archival Hemp Paper. Hand signed by the artist. This work is unframed. 27.5 x 27.5 inches Forsyth (Saint Louis) is proud to be the exclusive gallery of John O'Hara (American, b. 1963). O'Hara is a self-taught artist from St. Louis and is known for his large-scale abstract decorative pieces. His medium of choice is encaustic—a mixture of pigments and beeswax and he allows the material to dictate color, line and texture. His works often feature natural and organic forms and incorporate both figural and abstract elements. O'Hara began his art career in 2018 and collectors and designers quickly took notice. His work is included in both public and private collections around the world. Michael Kors selected O'Hara's Tar series paintings for his Milan, Paris, and New York showrooms and his flagship store in London. O'Hara's Brands on Yellow is hanging in the lounge of New Orleans luxury boutique hotel, Maison de la Luz...

Antique Print with Hand Coloring of a Siberian Lynx

Located in Langweer, NL

An original hand-coloured antique print featuring a Siberian lynx, which is a subspecies of the Eurasian lynx. This print, titled 'The Lynx of Siberia', would have been part of a work published by G.B. Whittaker and based on an illustration by Charles Hamilton Smith, around 1825. Charles Hamilton Smith was a versatile figure of his time, not just an illustrator and naturalist, but also a scholar with a keen interest in various subjects including ethnology and military science. His depictions of animals were among the early scientific efforts to document wildlife in their natural habitats with an emphasis on both detail and aesthetics. The publisher G.B. Whittaker was known for producing works of natural history, and his collaboration with Charles Hamilton Smith resulted in a number of beautifully illustrated prints that were not only scientifically valuable but also works of art. The Siberian lynx, or Lynx lynx...

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.
