This elegant framed horse print depicts “George Frederick,” a finely rendered equine portrait originally issued as Plate 18 in a 19th-century sporting or stud reference series. The composition showcases a richly colored chestnut horse in classical side profile, posed with lifted foreleg in the traditional stance favored for documenting prized bloodstock and conformation. The print is executed in warm brown and russet tones with subtle shading, emphasizing musculature, coat sheen, and anatomical precision. The artist’s approach reflects the golden age of British sporting art, where horses were treated with the same reverence as aristocratic portrait subjects. The work is presented in a decorative, patterned gilt frame with a repeating textile-like motif in gold and deep brown tones, likely a later 20th-century custom framing that complements the warmth of the image beautifully. A neutral mat with white inner liner provides balance and visual depth. The backing bears a label from Pirates Alley Picture Frames, Oklahoma City, indicating professional framing. This horse print is ideal for collectors of equestrian art, English sporting décor, or traditional library and study interiors. George Frederick This print references the horse George Frederick rather than the artist’s name, which is typical of 19th-century equestrian plates...

Original Antique Print of Roman Naval Battles and Warships by Bertuch, c. 1800 Original antique hand-colored copper engraving illustrating ancient Roman naval spectacles and warships, published in Friedrich Justin Bertuch’s celebrated “Bilderbuch für Kinder” around 1800. The plate is titled “Alterthümer XIII / Antiquités XIII” and illustrates the extraordinary Roman practice of staging mock naval battles, known as naumachiae. Fig. 1 depicts a large purpose-built naumachia: an oval amphitheater surrounding a flooded arena in which several vessels engage in a simulated naval battle. Additional ships are shown approaching through the monumental entrance and waterway below. Such elaborate spectacles were among the most ambitious forms of public entertainment in ancient Rome. Figs. 2 and 3 show detailed side views of ancient oared warships, illustrating their construction, banks of oars, raised sterns and military equipment. The combination of classical architecture, naval history and finely drawn ancient vessels makes this an especially interesting plate from Bertuch’s series. The engraving is signed “J. H. Schmuzer” at lower right. Friedrich Justin Bertuch (1747–1822) was a German publisher, writer and patron of the arts. His monumental “Bilderbuch für Kinder” (Picture Book for Children) was one of the great illustrated educational encyclopedias of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Published in Weimar from 1790 onward, it contained hundreds of engraved and hand-colored plates covering natural history, geography, science, technology, mythology, antiquity and costumes. An unusual and decorative early print combining ancient Roman history, architecture and maritime subjects. Creator: Friedrich Justin Bertuch (1747–1822) Engraver: J. H.
