This is a phenomenal antique print that is over 160 years old (1840s).  It depicts a grandfather fisherman repairing a net as his beautiful granddaughter watches. Lovely look at family life. Nice gift for a grandfather!

The print is a high quality steel engraving. You can see the plate marks from wehre it was pressed into the quality paper. It is hard to scan a steel engraving wel-- and squiggly lines (moire) are in the scan only. Under a magnifying glass, it has amazing crisp fine etched lines.

The page is in very good condition. The paper is of high quality so it holds the details well. The page measures approx. 8.5 x 10.55 inches, the plate mark is 5.5 x 8.75 inches, and the actual image size (without margins) is approx. 4.25 x 5 inches.
