English Archer in Mid-Draw, Costume Di Moyen Age, 1847
Located in Langweer, NL
This original antique print depicts an English archer in the act of drawing his longbow, a weapon for which English soldiers were famous during the medieval period. He's dressed in a red garment with a detailed breastplate, and a sword at his side. The longbow was a key English military advantage during conflicts such as the Hundred Years' War. The archer's pose captures the tension and focus required to use the longbow effectively.
The source for this print is Costume Di Moyen Age, published 1847.
More about the vivid colors of this original hand-colored antique print:
The colors have a nice glow over them. Historically, egg whites, known as glair, and sometimes egg yolk were indeed used in illumination and painting, particularly in manuscripts, to give colors a brighter appearance and to add a sheen or gloss to the work. This technique was quite common during the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance.
Egg whites can be applied as a varnish over pigments to enhance their brightness and to protect the colors. This application could make the colors appear more vivid and also add a slight glossy sheen to the surface of the image.
Egg yolk, on the other hand, was commonly used as a binding agent in paint. It forms the basis of tempera paint, a medium that was widely used before the advent of oil painting...

Bucolic Tranquility: Söderfors in Sweden by Ulrik Thersner, 1825
Located in Langweer, NL
This original antique aquatint is a picturesque depiction of Söderfors, a place likely to be in Sweden, given the naming convention and style of the artwork. Crafted by Ulrik Thersner in 1825, the image portrays a vibrant, pastoral scene set by a rushing waterway, suggesting the presence of a river or stream. The landscape is dotted with buildings that have the architectural hallmarks of early 19th-century Swedish design. A group of figures is depicted in the foreground, which adds a human element and scale to the scene.
Söderfors, if it is the same location known today, has a historical industrial background and is located in Uppsala County, Sweden. The area has been known for its ironworks and manufacturing history dating back to the 17th century. It is a locality situated in Tierp Municipality, Uppsala County, Sweden with 1,572 inhabitants in 2010
If the aquatint represents this area, it may have captured Söderfors at a time when it was transitioning from a more agricultural society to one influenced by industrialization. Today, the region may still have remnants of its historical past, although it would have undoubtedly undergone significant changes since Thersner's time.
More about the maker:
Ulrik Thersner was a multifaceted individual, having an impactful military career alongside his work as a draftsman and topographer. Born on April 2, 1779, in Kyrkslätt parish in Finland, Thersner began his military service early, becoming a ship's boy in the Swedish navy at the tender age of seven. His naval service during Gustav III's Russian War...
