Engravings of Egypt s Sphinx and Hermopolis: Early European Exploration, c.1795
Located in Langweer, NL
The two engravings displayed side by side depict monumental structures from ancient Egypt and are dated to the late 18th century. They are both examples of European interest in documenting and exploring Egyptian antiquities during the period of early exploration and fascination with the ancient world. ### Image 1: Profile View of the Remains of the Sphinx near the Pyramids of Egypt - Subject: The Sphinx, one of Egypt's most iconic monuments, is shown with its body largely buried in sand, as it was during this period before modern excavations. The figures atop and around the Sphinx provide scale and show the magnitude of the monument. The image also captures European explorers and researchers measuring the Sphinx, emphasizing the curiosity and study of ancient civilizations. - Age: This engraving likely dates from the late 18th century, during a time when European expeditions to Egypt were becoming more common, particularly following Napoleon's campaign in the late 1790s, which sparked Egyptomania across Europe. - Maker: The engraving is credited to Denon and Lege, both of whom were active artists and engravers during this time.

Powerful 18th-Century Bison Portrait – Hand-Coloured Buffon Print
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique Buffalo Engraving, Buffon Hand-Coloured Print Amsterdam 1769 This handsome hand-coloured 18th-century engraving of the buffalo, titled Le Buffle, comes from the rare Dutch edition of Buffon’s celebrated Histoire Naturelle, published in Amsterdam by J.H. Schneider in 1769. Appearing as Plate XXV in Tome XI, the image was drawn by Jacques de Sève, Buffon’s principal illustrator, and engraved by C.J. Fritsch. The plate is one of the most appealing large mammal portraits in the Buffon series, notable for its expressive character, fine engraving, and warm, atmospheric colouring. The buffalo stands in full profile on a grassy bank beneath a soft blue sky. Its muscular body, thick neck, and distinctive curved horns are rendered with precise cross-hatching, highlighting both strength and powerful form. The shaggy hair around the head and chest is drawn with exceptional sensitivity, giving the animal a lively, alert presence. Behind the buffalo, a distant landscape shows classical buildings, rolling hills, and soft vegetation—an elegant composition typical of de Sève, who often placed his subjects in idealised settings to evoke the exotic nature of these animals for 18th-century European audiences. Hand colouring in the Schneider edition is among the finest of all Buffon printings. The warm browns of the buffalo’s coat...

Copper Engraving of a Sapper of the Swiss Guards at the Vatican, 1779
Located in Langweer, NL
This original print is Johann Georg Wille's copper engraving of a Sappeur of the Swiss Guard from 1779. Wille was a notable artist and engraver known for his portraits and engravings during the 18th century. The piece depicts a half-length portrait of a soldier in the uniform of the Swiss Guard, likely in service in Italy, perhaps even in Rome, given the connection of the Swiss Guard with the Vatican. The soldier is portrayed as a sapper or pioneer, carrying out specialized military tasks. The dimensions of the paper and the technique used (copper engraving on paper) give a sense of the physical aspects of the artwork. The condition report indicates some minor damage but an overall good state, with some restoration work done. It's fascinating how historical artworks like this engraving can provide insights into military attire, cultural connections, and artistic techniques of the time. More details: Johann Georg Wille (1715 Königsberg, Giessen - 1808 Paris): "Sapeur des gardes suisses" Portrait of a man wearing a feather-trimmed fur hat and a sash worn over his uniform, breast piece with profile to the left, 1779. Technique: Copper engraving on Paper Inscription: At the lower part signed in the printing plate: "Dessine et gravé par Wille Graveur du Roi". At the lower part inscribed in the printing plate: "SAPEUR DES GARDES SUISSES ...". Keywords: Soldier; Uniform; Man; Soldier portrait...
