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.to

Andrew Wyeth, New Leaves, from The Four Seasons (after)
By Andrew Wyeth
Located in Southampton, NY
This exquisite lithograph after Andrew Wyeth (1917–2009), titled New Leaves, originates from the distinguished 1962 folio The Four Seasons: Paintings and Drawings by Andrew Wyeth. Published and printed by Art in America Company, Inc., New York, the edition exemplifies Wyeth’s quiet observation of nature and the passage of time. New Leaves captures the delicate stir of spring renewal—the subtle emergence of life in the landscape—rendered with Wyeth’s hallmark balance of precision, restraint, and emotional depth.
Executed on velin paper, this lithograph measures 17 x 13 inches (43.2 x 33 cm). As issued, it is unsigned and unnumbered, representing the folio’s authentic format. The Four Seasons series was conceived by the editors of Art in America in collaboration with Andrew and Betsy Wyeth, who selected drawings from the artist’s studio and personal archive to embody the poetic rhythm of the changing seasons. Each composition reveals Wyeth’s mastery of atmosphere, mood, and the quiet intensity of natural experience.
Artwork Details:
Artist: After Andrew Wyeth (1917–2009)
Title: New Leaves, from The Four Seasons, Paintings and Drawings by Andrew Wyeth, 1962
Medium: Lithograph on velin paper
Dimensions: 17 x 13 inches (43.2 x 33 cm)
Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued
Date: 1962
Publisher: Art in America Company, Inc., New York
Printer: Art in America Company, Inc., New York
Condition: Well preserved, consistent with age and medium
Provenance: From the 1962 folio The Four Seasons, Paintings and Drawings by Andrew Wyeth, published and printed by Art in America Company, Inc., New York
Notes:
Excerpted from the 1962 folio:
"In 1962 the editors of Art in America proposed to Wyeth a portfolio of images of his recent dry-brush drawings. The artist and his wife suggested the theme, 'The Four Seasons,' because of the essential role played in his work by the cycle of the seasons. The drawings were selected by Andrew and Betsy Wyeth from works in the house and studio at Chadds Ford, supplemented by some owned by friends. With a few exceptions they had never been exhibited or reproduced. The plates were made directly from the originals. In these drawings Wyeth's loving concentration on the object is fully revealed. But as always in his work, this concern with the tangible is balanced by sensibility to mood, to the emotion arising from the actual. They are pervaded with a sense of the season—the exact time of year, the hour of the day, the quality of the light. To the truth and subtlety with which he captures these intangible factors, these drawings owe their poignant poetry."
About the Artist:
Andrew Wyeth (1917–2009) was an American visual artist and one of the best-known painters of the mid-20th century. Although he considered himself an abstractionist, Wyeth’s work is characterized by a meticulous realism imbued with psychological depth and atmosphere. He often painted the landscapes and people surrounding his homes in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and Cushing, Maine, creating an intimate record of American rural life. The son of the celebrated illustrator N. C. Wyeth, Andrew trained under his father before developing his own deeply personal visual language inspired by Winslow Homer, Henry David Thoreau, and King Vidor. His wife, Betsy Wyeth, was both his muse and career manager, while his son Jamie Wyeth continued the family’s artistic legacy.
Among Wyeth’s best-known works is Christina’s World (1948), housed in the Museum of Modern Art, New York—a quintessential image of 20th-century American art. His other notable series include The Helga Pictures and his window studies, each reflecting a profound meditation on solitude, memory, and perception. Wyeth was the first painter to receive both the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal, and was elected to the French Académie des Beaux-Arts in 1980.
In 2022, Andrew Wyeth's painting Day Dream sold for USD 23.29 million at Christie’s New York, setting a world record for the artist.

Questions About Currier
Ives Figurative Prints
- How old is Currier and Ives?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2024Currier 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. They produced and sold hand-colored lithographs, which could be produced relatively quickly and cheaply. Explore a collection of Currier and Ives prints on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertAugust 29, 2024To 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, 2024Yes, some Currier and Ives pieces are worth something. 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.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024Yes, some Currier and Ives dishes are worth something. Limited edition pieces are most likely to be valuable, and sets often fetch higher prices than individual pieces. Generally, the age, style, type and condition will all play a role in determining the value. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can help you with the valuation process. Find a selection of Currier and Ives art and tableware on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022To tell if your Currier and Ives print is real, make sure that the print has the proper information. A genuine print will show the title and the publisher name as either "N. Currier" or "Currier Ives". You may also find a publication address, a copyright notice and a catalog number on some pieces. You'll find a selection of expertly vetted Currier and Ives print prints on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024How much original Currier Ives prints are worth depends on their age, image quality, overall condition and other factors.
