Genuine antique copper plate engraving from 1910-1917, approximately 100 years old. Absolutely beautiful! Produced in Europe by Gurlitt.

Actual print has ample margins, larger than shown. Actual print paper is not as yellow as my scan


TYPE of print: genuine copper plate engraving, produced one-side only on quality paper. Genuine antique print, not a modern reproduction. Produced by FUR SCHWEDEN, C E FRITZES IN STOCKHOLM and BERLIN. This is from a wonderful series of engravings, the originals issued in the 1700s and then again in this version of 1910s. Very pretty. Tafeln in Kupferdruck (engraved in copper).

Condition : fine condition with no creases or flaws.

Size: about 12 x 9" including margins all around. Deep plate impression, comes with original letterpress sheet in German.

ART and CRAFT idea: A genuine steel plate engraving print produced in the 1700s-1800s was produced using a largely cotton based paper and was originally
printed ‘wet' (this applies to any intaglio: steel or copper plate engravings, genuine etchings, genuine lithographs, steel plate photogravures). This means you can take a steel plate engraving print and tint it yourself with simple watercolor washes and watercolor pencils. If like the artwork or a steel plate engraving print and wish it was in full color, you can do that. Lay down very light washes
first and build up the color slowly. When you're done, just iron the paper (medium setting on a rigid surface) to remove any buckling and press overnight to make it completely flat. And if you're ambitious and looking to add new-vintage items to your store, pick up some engravings… tint them in whatever creative style you want … and you now have value-added inventory. Want to discuss tinting ideas? Please feel free to contact me or bring up the topic on Etsy's great discussion boards.

ABOUT ANTIQUE and VINTAGE PRINTS: I have an 11 page ‘primer' about all the basic types of antique prints -- you can view and print out here:
www.rrparks.com/Wolverton/antiqueprintprimer.pdf .... And if you have any questions please ask me. Always enjoy talking ‘antique prints'.



SHIPPING: I certainly do combine on postage costs -- if you are purchasing more than one saving vintage print from me please let me know and I'll adjust the invoice if necessary so you pay postage for only ONE item in the package.
