Capturing Light: Photographic Innovations of the Late 19th Century, 1897
Located in Langweer, NL
This is an original antique print titled 'Photographische Apparate II'. It shows various photo equipment and cameras. This print originates from Volume 5 of Meyers Konversations-Lexikon, published between 1893 and 1897. Meyers Konversations-Lexikon or Meyers Lexikon was a major encyclopedia in the German language that existed in various editions, and by several titles, from 1839 to 1984, when it merged with the Brockhaus Enzyklopädie. Joseph Meyer (1796–1856), who had founded the publishing house Bibliographisches Institut in 1826, intended to issue a universal encyclopaedia meant for a broad public: people having a general knowledge as well as businessmen, technicians and scholars, considering contemporary works like those of Pierer and Brockhaus to be superficial or obsolete. The cameras in more detail described: The print titled "Photographische Apparate II" features a detailed collection of photographic equipment from the late 19th century. This would have been state-of-the-art technology at the time, showcasing the various types of cameras and accessories used in the field of photography. The print originates from Meyers Konversations-Lexikon, which was a major German encyclopedia that was known for its comprehensive and well-illustrated articles. The fact that this print comes from Volume 5 of the encyclopedia, published between 1893 and 1897, places it at the end of the 19th century, a period of rapid advancement in photographic technology. The apparatuses shown include: 1. **Darkroom lamps and safelights** used to provide illumination in darkrooms without affecting light-sensitive materials. 2. **Various camera designs**, including folding cameras, box cameras, and plate cameras, reflecting the technological diversity of the time. 3. **A camera with a plate magazine** allowing for multiple exposures before needing to reload. 4. **A stereo camera...

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.

Find prints ranging from the 18th- and 19th-century bird illustrations by J.C. Sepp to mid-century modern prints, as well as numerous other antique and vintage prints at 1stDibs. Browse the collection today and read about how to arrange wall art in your space.
