Old prints and engravings showing the Maltese are very scarce, so I was delighted to locate this one. This picture is from a series printed and published in Italy to the very highest of standards as fine art reproduction engravings. They are printed on “antiqued” marbled paper and really do look totally authentic in everything except the price! Information is very scarce on the artist, but I do know that he was born in Lille in 1816 and died in Paris 1899 aged 83. The actual engraver was the French master of the metal plate Pierre Cottin (1823-1886).
Excellent. With no creases, scuffs or bends. I suspect you won't see one in better condition than this one.
Please note that this is NOT a blow up from a postcard, or a reprint, copy, computer-generated print or an inkjet/laser printer copy of the type you may well see offered elsewhere on eBay. It is a guaranteed commercially printed and professionally published fine art print.
