Title: Intricate Sword Hilt Designs – Plate VII from Section VI of G. A. Audsley’s Decorative Art Collection
Description: Plate VII from Section VI of G. A. Audsley’s extraordinary decorative art series showcases an array of intricately detailed sword hilt designs, offering a fascinating glimpse into the artistry and craftsmanship of 19th-century ornamentation. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed by Lemercier & Cie in Paris, this chromolithograph reflects Audsley’s dedication to preserving and celebrating artistic traditions.
The composition features a series of 20 individual sword hilts, each with unique motifs and designs. The hilts depict an impressive range of artistic themes, from floral patterns and animal forms to mythological figures and celestial scenes. Notable elements include coiled dragons, delicate blossoms, cranes in flight, and serene human figures, all rendered with exceptional precision and texture. The designs reflect a rich fusion of Eastern influences, capturing the beauty and symbolism found in traditional Japanese and Chinese sword craftsmanship.
Rendered in monochrome tones, the print emphasizes the intricate details and textures of each hilt, showcasing the technical brilliance of the chromolithographic process and the artistry of the era.
Condition: The print is in very good condition, with sharp details and minimal signs of age. Light foxing along the margins is consistent with the print's age but does not detract from its visual appeal.
Provenance: Published by Sampson Low & Co., printed by Lemercier & Cie, Paris
This rare and captivating piece is ideal for collectors and enthusiasts of decorative arts, antique weaponry, or East Asian-inspired designs. Perfect for framing, it serves as a striking testament to the artistic legacy of 19th-century ornamentation and craftsmanship.
