Antique Print of the Palace and Prison of Córdoba by Meyer, 1837

About the Item

Antique print titled 'Cordova, Pallast und Gefaengnisse des Inquisition'. View of the palace and prison of Córdoba, Spain. Originates from 'Meyers Universum'. Artists and Engravers: Joseph Meyer (May 9, 1796 - June 27, 1856) was a German industrialist and publisher, most noted for his encyclopedia, Meyers Konversations-Lexikon. Meyer operated very successfully as a publisher, employing a system of serial subscription to publications, which was new at that time. To this end he founded a company, Bibliographisches Institut, in Gotha in 1826. It published several editions of the Bible, works of classical literature (""Miniatur-Bibliothek der deutschen Classiker"", ""Groschen-Bibliothek""), atlases, the world in pictures on steel engravings (""Meyers Universum"", 1833–61, 17 volumes in 12 languages with 80,000 subscribers all over Europe), and an encyclopaedia. Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Minor wear and foxing. Blank verso, please study image carefully. Date: 1837 Overall size: 24 x 18 cm. Image size: 16 x 10 cm. Whilst cartography holds a special place in our collection, we also offer thousands of antique prints covering fields of interest as diverse as architecture, natural history, religion, ethnology and many more. Antique prints have long been appreciated for both their aesthetic and investment value. They were the product of engraved, etched or lithographed plates. These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space. We offer a wide range of authentic antique prints for any budget.
