We offer an original chromolithograph by Clay, Cosack and Company of an
elaborate porcelain wine cooler manufactured by the Royal Porcelain Works of
Berlin. The image is 9 ½” x 13 ½” on a sheet of heavy paper measuring: 14” x 19
½”. The print is titled across the lower margin “Wine Cooler, Porcelain. Clay,
Cosack & Co, Cromo-Lith. Buffalo, N. Y.”
This was printed for
“Treasures of Art, Industry and Manufacture Represented in the American
Centennial Exhibition at Philadelphia 1876” edited by C. B. Norton and published
by Cosack & Company, Buffalo, NY, 1877. This series of images were some of
the finest chromolithographic works made in America at the time. The rich color,
crisp details, and exacting proportions are still quite pleasing to modern
sensibilities.
Condition: The image is clean and crisp with good color.
The margins are full and free from any adhesive, though soiled with short edge
tears.
