Condition: Ex library - Good for age. Boards crudely repaired but effectively. Usual library stickers and stamps. minor foxing. Regretfully the library had decided to stamp each plate at edge of image. Still a dramatic and rare work of old age lithograph artistic craftsmanship. Very unlikely to be able to replicate in this age.

The picture does no justice to the true brilliance of these prints and will make a treasured edition to any library of worth.

Here is a definition from Wikipedia of the complicated process of making chromolithography prints:Chromolithography was the first method for making true multi-color prints. (Before the chromolithograph, prints were colored in by hand.) First commercialized in the 1830s by Godefrey Engleman of France, it was based on lithography which used flat stone slabs on which an image is drawn on the surface, but used separate stones for separate colors or impressions.Some chromolithograph prints demonstrated remarkable technical proficiency for the accuracy in the appearance of the image, its photorealistic accuracy.The overlapping layers of separately printed patterns of color (a completed chromolithograph consists of the summation of serial layers of ink on the page), when digitally magnified, now provide the data, for new forms of color media.Every chromolithograph is printed one color at a time.
