In the late 1800s many publications were produces depicting
scenes of the United States
and the world along with glimpses of art from the famous museums
of the world..
The majority of the population did not travel and relied upon these
publications
to see what the rest of America and the world really looked like.
They became familiar with
the famous paintings in Europe’s museums from the pictures they
saw in these publications.
Photography was developed in the mid 19th century and still in
its infancy,
printing processes were developed to reproduce these original photographs
in publication for the world to see what people, places and the
great art masterpieces
really looked like. Some of this wonderful historical record has
survived for us to study and enjoy today.
We are offering a collection of Gravures which appeared in one
of these publication, in 1892.
This is your opportunity
to own and preserve a piece of history
This gravure is over 100 years old, it is not a modern reproduction.
Under the image, is a short story about the scene depicted.This
one reads in part;
“To one who visits the Old World with a keen appreciation of its History,
Biography and Art, perhaps no European city proves more attractive than
that which greets us here, in beauty, where –“On the bright enchanting
plain, Fair Florence ‘neath the sunshine lies, And towering high o’er roof
and fane, Her Duomo soars into the skies!” “What a priceless debt of gratitude
we owe to this fair Tuscan Athens! A debt so vast that we are quite unable
to express its magnitude. After the appalling gloom of the Dark Ages, which,
on the downfall of Imperial Rome, folded entire Europe in its shroud, the
first pale streaks of light, announcing the approaching dawn of a new age,
appeared above these walls of Florence!….”
