About the Item

Title: Japanese Rooster Drum Stand: Antique Lithograph, 1880s Description: This detailed lithograph from the 1880s features an exquisite depiction of a traditional Japanese drum stand, elegantly topped with a carved rooster figure. Published by Sampson Low & Co. and printed in Paris by the skilled craftsmen at Imp. Lemercier & Cie, this piece was directed by G. A. Audsley, a noted British artist celebrated for his fascination with Japanese decorative arts. The rooster, beautifully rendered in naturalistic tones of red, brown, and gold, perches regally atop a richly ornamented wooden drum. Its meticulously detailed feathers and lifelike stance convey a sense of proud vigilance—a symbol of dawn and new beginnings in Japanese tradition. Beneath the rooster, the drum itself is decorated with delicate vine and grape motifs, meticulously shaded to create a tactile, three-dimensional appearance. The effect is a stunning interplay of naturalism and craftsmanship, hallmarks of Meiji-era design. The entire composition is further enriched by the careful shading and textural details achieved through the lithographic process, capturing both the elegance of the wooden grain and the refined floral patterns. The subdued backdrop in muted green highlights the golden browns and deep reds, creating a harmonious and timeless piece of art. This lithograph is a beautiful testament to the Japonisme movement that swept through Europe in the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the refined artistry and cultural symbolism of Japanese decorative arts. It would make a superb addition to any collection of Japanese art, antique prints, or as a sophisticated centerpiece for those who appreciate the quiet beauty of traditional craft. Condition report: Excellent condition, with minor foxing and light age-related spots at the edges typical for prints of this era. The colors remain vibrant, and the intricate details are superbly preserved. Framing tips: Frame this lithograph in a simple black or dark wood frame to ground the warm natural tones and highlight the rooster’s striking form. A soft cream or warm beige mat will provide an elegant contrast, allowing the rich textures and refined artistry of the piece to shine.

The Majestic Golden Penciled Chicken - A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph

Located in Langweer, NL

The Majestic Golden Penciled Chicken A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This exquisite 19th century chromolithograph features a pair of Golden Penciled chickens, a breed known for its striking feather pattern, refined body shape, and graceful presence. The print, titled Goudpellen, originates from Geïllustreerd Hoenderboek, an Illustrated Poultry Book published in 1888 by Elsevier. Compiled by Julius Volschau and adapted for Dutch readers by Dr. A. C. Oudemans Jzn., this book provided detailed insights into poultry breeding, showcasing both practical and ornamental breeds that were highly valued in the 19th century. The Golden Penciled variety is known for its intricate feather markings, especially in the hens, which display an elegant gold and black penciling pattern across their bodies. The roosters are equally impressive, with a rich golden-red hue, an upright stance, and a gracefully arched tail. This breed was admired not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its active and hardy nature, making it a popular choice among poultry enthusiasts in the 19th century. This lithograph was created using chromolithography, a sophisticated 19th century printing technique that allowed for vibrantly detailed and richly colored illustrations. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Christian Förster, a skilled animal illustrator of the time. Chromolithographs were produced by layering multiple colors, each applied with a separate stone plate, ensuring depth and realism in the final print. The precision in rendering the feather texture and vibrant golden tones in this lithograph highlights the artistry involved in this technique. Condition Summary The print remains in very good condition, with well preserved colors and sharp details. Some minor age related toning and light foxing spots are visible, particularly along the edges, which is common in lithographs of this period. The paper remains stable, with minimal signs of wear, making this an excellent collectible piece for antique poultry print...

Antique Rooster Woodblock Print circa 1910 by Prosper Alphonse Isaac

Located in SANTA FE, NM

Antique Rooster Portrait Prosper Alphonse Isaac (France, 1858-1924) Woodblock Print circa 1910 9 x 7 1/8 (15 1/4 x 17 frame) inches The excellent book "The Great Wave: The Influence of Japanese Woodcuts on French Prints" which was an exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1974, recounts the phenomenal "cult of Japan" in late nineteenth-century France and reveals through direct comparisons its particular impact on the graphic work of Manet, Degas, Cassatt, Bonnard, Vuillard, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Gauguin. This print directly relates to the discovery of Japanese art most notably through the woodblock prints which found their way to the West oftentimes as stuffing or packing materials from consumer goods that were being imported to the West at the end of the 19th century. Prosper-Alphonse Isaac was born in a well-to-do family. This gave him the means not only of leaving his native Calais to pursue a career as an artist in Paris, but also the means to acquire art. Isaac was particularly drawn to Japanese arts, which he collected avidly. Many of the objects he bought were eventually given to museums. As a printmaker Isaac started drawing seascapes in dry point, but eventually moved on to become one of only a handful of artists versed in color woodcut techniques in France. His compositions, generally small in scale, are heavily influenced by the arts of Japan. He printed small editions of these works. Aside from this artistic activity, Isaac was also an active textile decorator. "This mark, which he borrows from Hokusaï and Totoya Hokkeï...
