Minerals & Crystals Print: Quartz, Calcite, Ore Rocks, Crystal Shapes – Antique 1867 This detailed antique print depicts a variety of minerals, rocks, ores, and crystal shapes rendered in fine hand-coloured engravings. It originates from the Atlas der Natuurlijke Geschiedenis voor scholen en huisgezinnen, adapted into Dutch by T.C. Winkler after Traugott Bromme, and published in Amsterdam by J.C. Loman in 1867. Created for educational use, this plate introduced 19th-century students to mineralogy and crystallography, showing both rock specimens and geometric crystal models. The labelled figures include: 1–6. Crystal forms and geometric models (various prism, pyramid, and rhombohedron shapes used in mineralogy) 7\. Anthracite coal 8\. Bituminous coal 8a. Jet 8b. Lignite 9\. Sulphur ore 10\. Iron pyrite (fool’s gold) 10a. Iron ore with gangue 10b. Hematite ore 11\. Quartz crystal cluster 12\. Feldspar crystal 13\. Mica 14\. Calcite crystal 15\. Galena (lead ore) 16\. Malachite (copper carbonate) 17\. Rock crystal (quartz group) 18\. Siderite crystal 19\. Red jasper 20\. Petrified wood 21\. Baryte (heavy spar) 22\. Serpentine 23\. Garnet cluster 24–26. Further geometric crystal models showing mineral habit Produced using copper engraving with meticulous hand colouring, the print shows precise linear details and realistic mineral colours, capturing each sample’s luster, cleavage, and fracture for geological identification. These plates served as essential educational references before photographic mineral guides were widely available. Condition summary: Good condition for its age, with slight overall toning and minor scattered foxing mainly in the margins. The paper remains strong with no tears or repairs, and the hand colouring is vivid and well-preserved. Framing tips: Frame this mineralogy print in a black, dark wood, or walnut frame with a cream or off-white mount to enhance its fine engraved details and earthy mineral tones. For traditional settings, a gold frame adds antique warmth and museum-like sophistication. UV-protective glass is recommended to preserve colours and prevent further toning. This antique natural history print will enrich any geology, mineral art...

"1844 Lithograph of a Bukharan Uzbek: Traditional Attire and Craft" Description: This 1844 lithograph captures a traditional Bukharan Uzbek man, from the renowned series "Moeurs, Usages et Costumes de tous les Peuples de Monde" by Auguste Wahlen. Published in Paris using the technique of handcoloured lithography, enhanced with Arabic gum on vellin paper, this print vividly portrays the rich cultural attire unique to Bukhara, Uzbekistan. The man's elaborate robe and distinctive headwear highlight the regional fashion and craftsmanship. The print’s appeal lies in its detailed depiction of historical dress and accessories, offering a window into the cultural diversity of Central Asia. Such prints are treasured for their historical value and intricate artistry, making them highly desirable to collectors and enthusiasts of ethnographic art. The lithograph depicting a man from Bukhara, Uzbekistan, offers several intriguing cultural and historical insights: 1. Traditional Attire: The attire of the Bukharan man, particularly the elaborate robe and turban, is a rich display of Uzbek textile craftsmanship. Traditional robes, often made from silk and cotton, are adorned with intricate ikat patterns—a dyeing technique where threads are dyed before weaving. This style is emblematic of Uzbekistan's well-known textile industry. 2. Turban Significance: The turban, known locally as a "doppa" or "tubeteika," is more than just practical headwear; it serves as a cultural symbol of status and identity. The style, color, and way it is worn can convey information about the wearer's social status, region, and even his clan affiliations. 3. Historical Context: Bukhara was a pivotal Silk Road city, making it a melting pot of cultures, languages, and religions. The diverse influences are reflected in the traditional clothing, which blends Persian, Turkic, and nomadic styles. 4. Artistic Technique: The use of handcoloured lithography in the 19th century allowed for high-quality, detailed prints that were more accessible to the European public. This technique involved drawing on limestone with a greasy medium, then using water and oil-based ink to print vibrant images, which were then painted by hand. 5. Cultural Preservation: Prints like this serve not only as artwork but also as historical documents that preserve and share the cultural heritage of regions less known to the Western world at the time. They played a crucial role in educating and influencing perceptions about distant cultures during the 19th century. This print, therefore, is not just a beautiful piece of art but a deep well of cultural history and craftsmanship, reflecting the rich tapestry of life in Central Asia during the 19th century.
