The Racing Stallion, Samuel Howitt Equestrian Engraving, England, 1800

Located in Langweer, NL

Title: The Racing Stallion – Original Samuel Howitt Georgian Equestrian Engraving, England, 1800 An elegant and highly decorative original copperplate engraving by renowned British sporting artist Samuel Howitt, depicting a spirited racing stallion being presented by its handler within an idyllic English landscape. Several figures and an additional horse appear in the background, emphasizing the social and aristocratic culture surrounding horse breeding and racing during the Georgian era. The plate is signed in the image "Howitt inv. et f.", indicating that Samuel Howitt both designed and engraved the work himself. The lower right publication line reads "Published March 1, 1800," confirming its original issue at the dawn of the nineteenth century. Samuel Howitt (1756–1822) was among Britain's foremost painters and illustrators of horses, hunting scenes, and rural sporting life. His engravings are celebrated for their remarkable understanding of equine anatomy, movement, and character, making them enduring favorites among collectors of antique sporting art. Today, works such as The Racing Stallion remain highly desirable decorative pieces for country houses, libraries, gentlemen's studies, stables, and contemporary equestrian interiors. Creator: Samuel Howitt (British, 1756–1822) Origin: England Date: Published March 1, 1800 Medium: Original copperplate engraving on laid paper, unframed Image dimensions: 26.5 cm × 21.3 cm Presented unframed.

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.
