19th Century Impressionistic Oil Painting by Pierre Georges Jeanniot
By Pierre Georges Jeanniot
Located in Casteren, Noord-Brabant
Impressionist painting by the Swiss painter Jeanniot. It is oil on a mahogany panel, the painting is signed in the lower left and dated 1884. On the back is a label, presumably stuck on it by a previous owner, with information about the painter. The painting has an Art Nouveau frame, woodwork with stucco, gilded and decorated with typical Art Nouveau flowers. Top left and top right are minor damages to the frame. See pictures. Jeanniot is a fairly well-known Swiss painter who was friends with the famous French painter Edgar degas. Below you will find more information about the painter Jeanniot. Pierre-Georges Jeanniot Switzerland, 1848-1934 The artistic education of Pierre Georges Jeanniot began with his father, Pierre-alexander Jeanniot (1826–1892), a longtime director of l’École des Beaux-arts of Dijon, France. Nevertheless, Pierre-Georges Jeanniot started out pursuing a military career, as an infantry officer (1866–1881), but he never ceased drawing. He was known for the first time in 1872 at the art exhibition salon de Paris, where he presented a watercolor painting called 'intérieur de forêt'. The next year he presented the painting 'Le Vernan à nass- sous-Sainte-anne'. From then on he was a regular contributor to the salon de Paris, where he presented new works with views of Toulouse, Paris, Troyes, the edges of the seine, and some portraits. In 1881, after the army offered him the rank of commandant, he resigned to devote himself exclusively to painting. He took up residence in Paris. His works from this period represent mainly scenes of military life that allowed him to forge a reputation. Jeanniot established himself permanently in 1882 and obtained his first award the following year (medal third class of the Salon de Paris). From then on, he started to show a certain artistic independence. He then mostly portrayed Parisian women during the “Belle Époque”, women in bathing suits...

The Elegant Silver Bantam Game Fowl - A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph
Located in Langweer, NL
The Elegant Silver Bantam Game Fowl - A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This beautiful 19th century chromolithograph showcases a group of Silver Bantam Game Fowl, a small but agile breed known for its sharp, refined features and striking plumage. The print, titled Zilverlaken Vechtkrielen, 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 utility and ornamental breeds that were highly valued in the 19th century. Silver Bantam Game Fowl are direct descendants of traditional game birds but selectively bred into a smaller, more compact form while retaining their strength and alert nature. These birds were historically admired for their agility and resilience. The rooster in this lithograph stands proudly atop a small hill, displaying its elegant silver, black, and white plumage. The hens, with their refined body shape and soft silver laced feathering, are actively foraging, adding movement and a sense of realism to the composition. This lithograph was produced using chromolithography, a meticulous 19th century printing process that allowed for vibrant and finely detailed illustrations. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Christian Förster, a renowned animal illustrator of the time. Chromolithographs were made by layering multiple colors, each applied with a separate stone plate, ensuring depth and realism in the final print. The delicate feather detailing and striking contrast in this print highlight the artistry involved in this technique. Condition Summary The print remains in very good condition, with well preserved colors and fine 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...

The Elegant Golden Spangled Hamburg Chicken - A 19th Century Poultry Lithograph
Located in Langweer, NL
The Elegant Golden Spangled Hamburg Chicken A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This exquisite 19th century chromolithograph features a pair of Golden Spangled Hamburg chickens, an elegant and highly regarded breed known for its striking plumage, graceful build, and excellent egg laying capabilities. The print, titled Goudlaken Hamburgers, 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 a comprehensive guide to poultry breeding, highlighting both practical and ornamental breeds that were highly valued in the 19th century. Hamburg chickens are one of the oldest known domesticated poultry breeds, with records tracing them back to at least the 14th century. They were particularly popular in the Netherlands, Germany, and England due to their striking feather patterns and exceptional egg laying abilities. The Golden Spangled Hamburg, as depicted in this lithograph, is a particularly eye catching variety, featuring a rich golden brown base color accented with bold black spangling. The rooster stands tall with its flowing tail feathers and proud posture, while the hen, slightly smaller, displays the same intricate feather pattern in a more compact form. This lithograph was created using chromolithography, a meticulous 19th century printing technique that allowed for vibrant and finely detailed 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 detailed feather patterning and the warm golden hues in this print highlight the craftsmanship involved in this artistic technique. Condition Summary The print remains in good condition, with well preserved colors and sharp details. Some minor age related toning and visible foxing spots are present along the edges, which is common in lithographs of this period. The paper remains stable, with slight signs of wear, making this an excellent collectible piece for antique poultry print...

Located in Langweer, NL
The Elegant Silver Penciled Chicken - A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This exquisite 19th century chromolithograph features a pair of Silver Penciled chickens, a breed celebrated for its striking contrast of black and white feather patterns and refined body shape. The print, titled Zilverpellen, 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. Silver Penciled chickens were known for their intricate feather markings, particularly in the hens, which displayed an elegant silver and black penciling pattern across their bodies. The roosters, as depicted in this lithograph, feature a bright white body contrasted with a sharp black tail and wings, making them highly distinctive. This breed was admired not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its energetic nature and steady egg laying capabilities. This lithograph was created using chromolithography, a sophisticated 19th century printing process 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 silver toned contrast 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.

Located in Langweer, NL
The Majestic Dark Brahma A Rare 19th Century Poultry Lithograph This remarkable 19th century chromolithograph showcases a pair of Dark Brahma chickens, a striking and noble breed renowned for its strength, elegance, and feathered legs. The print, titled Donkere Brahma Poutra’s, originates from Geïllustreerd Hoenderboek, an Illustrated Poultry Book published in 1888 by Elsevier. Authored by Julius Volschau and adapted for Dutch readers by Dr. A. C. Oudemans Jzn., this book provided valuable knowledge on poultry breeding and care, reflecting the popularity of ornamental and productive breeds in the late 19th century. The Brahma chicken is believed to have originated from birds imported from China and further developed in the United States in the mid 19th century. The Dark Brahma variety, characterized by its intricate feather pattern, was highly prized among poultry enthusiasts. The rooster features a striking contrast of bold black and silvery white plumage, while the hen exhibits a sophisticated laced pattern in deep gray and black. These birds were favored for their impressive size, calm demeanor, and hardiness, making them both an attractive and practical addition to farms and estates. This lithograph was created using chromolithography, a highly detailed and richly colored printing technique popular in the 19th century. The artwork is based on an original drawing by Christian Förster, an esteemed animal illustrator of the period. The chromolithographic process involved applying each color separately using multiple stone plates, creating a vibrant and realistic depiction of the birds’ intricate feather patterns and elegant postures. Condition Summary The print is in good condition, with rich colors and detailed imagery still well preserved. Some signs of age related toning and foxing spots are visible, particularly along the edges, which is typical for a print of this age.
