About the Item

Antique print titled ‘Lew Chew'. Lithograph of the Ryukyu Islands, from about 1829 until the mid-20th century, the islands' English name was spelled Luchu, Loochoo, or Lewchew. The Ryukyu Islands are a chain of Japanese islands that stretch southwest from Kyushu to Taiwan: the Osumi, Tokara, Amami, Okinawa, and Sakishima Islands (further divided into the Miyako and Yaeyama Islands), with Yonaguni the westernmost. This print originates from 'Narrative of the expedition of an American squadron to the China seas and Japan, performed in the years 1852, 1853, and 1854, under the command of Commodore M.C. Perry (..)' by Francis L. Hawks. Artists and Engravers: Lithographs after W. Heine and E. Brown. Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Minor foxing, please study image carefully. Date: 1856 Overall size: 29 x 22.5 cm. Image size: 23.5 x 16.5 cm. Whilst cartography holds a special place in our collection, we also offer thousands of antique prints covering fields of interest as diverse as architecture, natural history, religion, ethnology and many more.

These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space. We offer a wide range of authentic antique prints for any budget.
