Currier Ives Figurative Prints

American, 1834-1907
Currier and Ives was a prominent American printmaking establishment headquartered in New York operating from 1835 to 1907. Nathaniel Currier (1813-1888) started his business on his own, but later merged with James Merritt Ives (1824-1895), becoming "Currier and Ives" in 1857. They produced and sold hand-colored lithographs which could be produced relatively quickly and cheaply. They called themselves "the Grand Central Depot for Cheap and Popular Prints". The company published around 7,500 lithographs in its 72 years in business.

19th century woodcut engraving print figurative American forest trees scene
By Winslow Homer
Located in Milwaukee, WI
The present woodcut engraving is an original print designed by Winslow Homer, originally published in Harper's Weekly on April 30, 1859. It is an excellent example of the many prints Homer produced of fashionable people engaged in leisurely activities, in this case along a picturesque countryside lane. The sign reading 'Belmont' on the left indicates this is probably near his home in Belmont Massachusetts. The image presents multiple figures, both men and women, riding horseback: Some in the distance gallop away, toward a town marked by a church steeple beyond. Three others in the foreground, including two equestrian women, gather around a group of children who have been gathering flowers and trapping birds...

Questions About Currier Ives Figurative Prints
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024
    Currier and Ives is more than 175 years old. The prominent American printmaking business, headquartered in New York, operated from 1835 to 1907. Nathaniel Currier started his business on his own but later merged with James Merritt Ives, becoming "Currier and Ives" in 1857.

    To tell if it’s an original Currier Ives print, get a magnifying glass and study the image up close. If you notice a regular pattern of dots, the piece is likely a reproduction, as the printing techniques used to make originals usually resulted in irregular, non-symmetrical dashes and dots. Next, look at your piece from the side with the naked eye. If the paper appears perfectly smooth and uniform, the print is unlikely to be an original Currier Ives, which will typically show off variations in luster and texture. When in doubt, have a certified appraiser or knowledgeable art dealer help you with the authentication process. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Currier Ives prints.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 30, 2024

The company published around 7,500 lithographs in its 72 years in business, and some, such as The American National Game of Base Ball, have sold for more than $75,000 in the past. Generally, the historical significance, image quality, age and condition of the publisher's prints will determine their worth. A certified appraiser or experienced art dealer can evaluate any prints you own using these criteria and give you an idea of how much they may be worth. Find an assortment of Currier Ives prints on 1stDibs.
