antique lithograph from the 19th century
antique and original lithograph from the 1890s (late 19th century circa) published under the supervision of Albert Racinet at Rombaldi. Second edition of these plates, previously published by Firmin Didot. Lithograph by Spiegel. Magnificent colors. The explanatory note titles this lithograph as follows: “FURNITURE – BEDS, COUCHES AND THRONES". Numerous figures representing Egyptian furniture, beds, couches and thrones.
This small lithograph, guaranteed authentic, was part of a gigantic and revolutionary work for the time on the study of historical costume, furniture, fashion, jewelry and architecture throughout history and space. Albert Racinet, an illustrator by trade, gave a unique style to his illustrations by essentially using chromolithography. The lithograph on sale here is therefore an essential piece in the understanding and study of costumes and peoples throughout history. It will delight any good collector interested in the subject in order to study its contents or simply to frame it. Due to its colors, its history, its author and its importance, this lithograph is indeed perfect for perfecting a decoration. This unique style is in fact a precursor to the illustrations of the encyclopedias of the following century.
Dimensions: 19 x 22 cm
