Audsley’s ability to fuse Eastern and Western artistic traditions, resulting in a striking piece that transcends cultural boundaries. Ideal for collectors of antique prints or those intrigued by the interplay of Japanese aesthetics and Western chromolithographic techniques, this work offers a glimpse into the global artistic dialogues of its era. Provenance: Published by Sampson Low & Co., printed by Lemercier & Cie, Paris A rare and visually captivating work, this chromolithograph is a perfect addition to any collection focused on 19th-century art or Japanese-inspired decorative masterpieces.
