Title: French Regional Costumes – Bretons, Parisians and Savoyard, c.1845 This charming mid-19th-century hand-colored lithograph illustrates the regional diversity of traditional French costumes, taken from the rare Parisian publication Le Monde en Estampes: Types et Costumes des Principaux Peuples de l’Univers, issued around 1845–1850. The lithograph was executed by J. Bocquin after drawings by Fossey, printed by Lemercier in Paris, one of the most respected lithographic ateliers of the century. Published by Amédée Bedelet, this series presented detailed portrayals of national and regional dress from across Europe and beyond, accompanied by text by Élisabeth Müller. The composition, labeled “Europe – France,” presents an elegant gathering of figures from various French provinces. In the foreground, a Breton couple walks proudly in their regional attire—he in a broad-brimmed hat and embroidered vest, she in a richly colored dress and traditional lace cap. To their left, a seated woman from Caux wears a tall white headpiece, while another figure represents a Marin Maconnaise from Burgundy. At the center and right, mountaineers from the High Pyrenees converse with Parisians dressed...

The Good Shepherd, c.1900 German Devotional Chromolithograph (Printed in Germany) This early 20th-century German chromolithograph presents one of the most iconic and comforting Christian images: Christ as the Good Shepherd. Produced around 1900 by a major German devotional press, the print exemplifies the luminous colour layering, soft modelling, and serene atmosphere characteristic of high-quality chromolithography from this period. These works were widely distributed throughout Europe and the Americas and became treasured objects in Catholic homes, chapels, and pastoral settings. Christ stands barefoot in a verdant landscape, gently holding a lamb to his chest while a flock gathers around him. The rich red cloak, delicate golden halo, and pastoral backdrop are rendered with exceptional detail and depth, achieved through multiple stone plates typical of fine chromolithographic production. The artwork conveys both theological symbolism and emotional warmth: the shepherd guiding and protecting his flock, the gentle lamb symbolising innocence, and the tranquil landscape offering a sense of peace and reassurance. The lower margin features multilingual titles identifying the subject for international Catholic distribution: “Der Gute Hirt. The Good Shepherd. Le Bon Pasteur. Il Buon Pastore. El Divino Pastor.” This multilingual caption format is typical of German devotional publishers active from the late 19th into the early 20th century. The imprimatur line, “Imprimi permittitur. Ordinariatus episcopalis Limburgensis,” confirms that the image was officially approved for devotional use by the Catholic Church. The imprint “Printed in Germany” situates the work within one of the major German chromolithographic centres, likely Munich or Cologne, renowned for their beautifully saturated and technically refined religious images. This is unquestionably an original chromolithograph, not a modern reproduction. The velvety colour fields, warm matte lithographic paper, subtle stippling, and natural toning all align with authentic early 20th-century stone-based printing. The crisp border text and preserved pigments further confirm its originality. The Good Shepherd was among the most cherished devotional themes of the period, and examples in this level of condition are increasingly rare and desirable among collectors of sacred art. Condition Report: Very good condition. Colours bright and unfaded. Minor age toning and small, expected handling marks at the outer margins. No tears, creases, losses, or repairs. The plate text and imprimatur are sharp and fully legible. Tips for Framing: Ideal for framing in a warm walnut or gilded frame to enhance the halo and red cloak. A cream or ivory mat complements the pastoral greens and highlights the central figure. A clean black frame with a wide mat offers a more contemporary presentation while keeping the devotional character intact.

Adoration of the Magi, c.1900 German Chromolithograph (Printed in Germany) This beautiful early 20th-century German chromolithograph depicts the Adoration of the Magi, one of the most cherished subjects in Christian art. Printed around 1900–1920 by a major German devotional press, the work displays the hallmarks of high-quality chromolithographic craftsmanship: deep, luminous color; soft tonal transitions; richly layered stone-based pigments; and a gentle atmosphere that recalls late 19th-century academic religious painting. The composition presents the Virgin Mary seated with the Christ Child, Joseph beside her, and the Three Kings kneeling in reverence as they present their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. A young attendant appears in the doorway holding another offering. The figures are rendered with delicately modeled expressions, soft haloes, and meticulously detailed robes—particularly the embroidered white garment of the kneeling king and the golden cloak of the standing monarch. These chromatic effects were achieved through multiple lithographic stones, a technique that reached its peak among German devotional publishers during this period. The multilingual caption along the lower margin identifies the print for international Catholic distribution: “Anbetung der Könige. Adoration of the Three Kings. L’adoration des rois mages. L’adorazione dei Magi. La adoración de los Reyes Magos. Pokłon Trzech Króli.” This reflects the broad export networks of German publishers who supplied churches, monasteries, and private devotional homes throughout Europe and the Americas. The note “Printed in Germany” confirms its origin, consistent with presses in Munich, Dresden, Cologne, and Limburg, known for producing richly colored religious chromolithographs from the late 19th to early 20th century. This work is unquestionably an original chromolithograph, not a modern reproduction. The image shows true stone-layered color rather than digital or offset dots, and the paper retains the matte texture, subtle toning, and characteristic stippled pigment structure associated with genuine early 20th-century chromolithography. The presence of the multilingual caption, period typography, and the “Printed in Germany” imprint further authenticate the piece. Condition Report: Very good condition. Colors vivid and unfaded. Minor age toning to outer margins and small handling marks consistent with age. No tears, losses, or repairs observed. The bottom title and imprint text are sharp and fully legible. Tips for Framing: Ideal for framing in a gilded or walnut frame to complement the warm palette and ceremonial richness of the scene. A cream or ivory mat enhances the devotional character and highlights the luminous tones of the garments. A darker frame with a wide mat can also create a refined, museum-style presentation.

Kumi Sugaï, one of the most internationally acclaimed Japanese painters of the twentieth century. Colors may slightly vary due to photographic lighting sources or your monitor settings. KUMI SUGAÏ, JAPAN (1919 - 1996) Kumi Sugaï was a painter, sculptor and print maker born in 1919 in Kobe, Japan. Sugaï first experimented with oil painting at age nine and became a student at the Osaka School of Fine Arts in 1933 when he was fourteen. He met with the Gutai Art Association founder, Jiro Yoshihara which had a huge impact on his further artistic development and experimentalism. He was part of the first generation of 20th-century Japanese artists to become acquainted with Western painting techniques (under the instructions of Yoshihara), but he also explored both typography and Japanese calligraphy, important in his subsequent work. Sugaï left art school prematurely to work in commercial advertising for Hankyu electric rail company from 1937 to 1945. These formative years of practicing Western and traditional Japanese mediums gave a dual foundation to his future work. He dedicated himself to painting and moved to Paris in 1952, enrolling at the Académie de la grand chaumière, being one of the first generation of the post-war Japanese artists to join the international avant-garde art scene. Sugai was immediately noticed in Paris for his delicate touch and use of abstract gestures resembling primitive forms. He had his first solo show at Galerie Craven in 1954. In 1955 he made his first work in edition (Diable Rouge, a lithograph) and decided that from now on print work (lithographs, etchings and later silkscreens) was going to be an important part of his oeuvre. One of the reasons was to make his work more accessible. Between 1955 and 1996 Sugaï produced a little under 400 works in edition. Considered part of the École de Paris (School of Paris) and the Nouveau Réalisme (New Realism) movements, in 1962 he began to move from calligraphic, mainly monochromatic, organic motifs to more hard-edge geometric forms painted with clear colors. This aesthetic was more often than not influenced by speeding the curves of the freeways surrounding Paris in his beloved Porsche. He was possessed with speed and in a lot of his work we find abstracted roads (The S shape) details of roadsigns, parkings and in general an abstract visual language inspired by what he would see through his window moving at great speed. City and rural Landscapes transformed into simple colored compositions. Sugaï found great joy in the act of repetition and some iconic shapes have been appearing in his work throughout his whole career, first loosely and soft in his early etchings, paintings and lithographs, later hard edged and straight in his silkscreens. Sugai died in Kobe in 1996. His artworks were shown in numerous exhibitions around the world and most of his paintings are in the collections of well-known museums (Such as MOMA, the Guggenheim and Centre Pompidou) and important collectors.
