About the Item
Title: Elegant Cranes on Ornamental Base – Plate XIV from Section VI of G. A. Audsley’s Decorative Art Series
Description: Plate XIV from Section VI of G. A. Audsley’s renowned decorative art collection showcases an elegant sculpture of two cranes, meticulously rendered in this monochromatic chromolithograph. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed by Lemercier & Cie in Paris, this piece highlights Audsley’s ability to capture the beauty and refinement of natural and decorative elements.
The composition features two intricately detailed cranes, one standing tall with its head gracefully bowed, and the other resting with its beak poised near its chest. The figures are perched atop an ornamental rocky base adorned with delicate details, including dragonflies and foliage, evoking a serene natural environment. The textured feathers and flowing lines of the cranes’ forms demonstrate masterful craftsmanship and artistic sensitivity.
The print’s monochrome palette emphasizes the sculptural quality and intricate details of the composition, highlighting the harmony and elegance of these symbolic birds often associated with longevity and peace in East Asian culture.
Condition: The print is in very good condition, with sharp details and minimal signs of age. Minor foxing in the margins is present but does not detract from the overall beauty.
Provenance: Published by Sampson Low & Co., printed by Lemercier & Cie, Paris
