Botanical Illustration of Blanket Flower: Gaillardia Grandiflora, c.1855
Located in Langweer, NL
Botanical Illustration of Blanket Flower: Gaillardia Grandiflora This vibrant lithograph features the Gaillardia grandiflora, commonly known as the Blanket Flower. This striking plant is celebrated for its large, daisy-like flowers with bold colors ranging from red and orange to yellow, making it a popular choice in gardens for its bright and cheerful appearance. The illustration captures the vivid coloration and form of the flower, with its prominent central disk and ray florets surrounded by lush green foliage. This image is part of the 19th-century botanical series "Flore des Serres et des Jardins de l'Europe," created by the Belgian horticulturist Louis van Houtte. Known for his extensive work in horticulture, van Houtte's illustrations provided detailed and visually appealing representations of various plant species, aiming to document the beauty and diversity of the botanical world. Hand-colored lithography, the method used here, was a favored technique for its ability to accurately depict the vivid hues and intricate details of plants. The print is in good condition, with the colors well-preserved, though it may show minor signs of aging such as light foxing, which is typical for antique botanical...

Hand-Colored Antique Illustrations of Various Rodent-like Animals, circa 1820
Located in Langweer, NL
Original antique print of mouse species / mice and other rodents. This engraved print originates from a very rare unknown Dutch work. The plates are similar to the plates in the famous German work: ‘Bilderbuch fur Kinder' by F.J. Bertuch, published 1790-1830 in Weimar. This could be Dutch edition of this work (no references found), or a work that used the Bertuch plates. Published circa 1820. This engraving described in more detail: The print features six illustrations of various rodent-like animals. They are not all mice; they represent a range of rodent species, which can be inferred from their different physical characteristics: 1. The largest animal at the top left looks like a type of pika or a chinchilla due to its rounded ears and body shape. 2. The second illustration on the top right is a curled-up animal, which might be a dormouse based on its compact body and fur texture. 3. The animal at the center-right with prominent ears and elongated body could be a type of rat or a gerbil. 4. The creature in the middle left with large hind legs and long ears appears to be a jerboa, which is known for its distinctive jumping movement. 5. The bottom left animal resembles a vole...

The engraving shows two caprine animals, commonly known as members of the goat family. They are labeled "Viverr. Dieren VIII" (Dutch 'viervoetige dieren, meaning quadrupeds) and "Quadrup.

Vibrant Handcolored Depictions of Japanese Costumes from 1844
Located in Langweer, NL
Vibrant Depictions of 19th Century Japanese Costumes from Auguste Wahlen’s Masterpiece These prints depict various figures from Japanese society, ranging from a humble fisherman's family to a nobleman, a ceremonial samurai, and infantry musicians. Each figure is intricately dressed in traditional attire, reflecting their status and roles. The prints were created by the artist Auguste Wahlen as part of his celebrated work *"Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde"* (Customs, Manners, and Dress of All the Peoples of the World), published in 1843. The vibrant colors and fine detailing were achieved using lithography, a printmaking technique that involves drawing on a flat surface with a grease-based medium and using a chemical process to transfer the image. The accuracy of the costumes and lively scenes make these lithographs especially appealing. The contrast between the vivid costumes and soft shading adds depth, capturing the essence of Japanese life during this period. Attraction of the Prints: The appeal lies in their historic and ethnographic value, showcasing detailed attire and customs from another era, accompanied by the richness of the lithography technique. The vibrant colors, clean lines, and the representation of both nobility and common folk offer viewers a rich visual experience, portraying a distant culture with authenticity and grace. Keywords: 19th-century prints, Japanese costume lithographs, traditional Japanese attire, Auguste Wahlen prints, "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes," ethnographic art, historic lithographs, ceremonial Japanese dress, Japanese fishermen prints, samurai art...
