Paris Beautiful Seine River Cityscape ca. 1850 antique color lithograph print

Paris

(Exquisite Cityscape, moving Goods Across the Seine River, Barges, House Boats, Beautiful Church Domes)

Issued ca. 1850-65 (?)- likely Europe

Fine and uncommon antique color lithographed print.

Curious historic artifact, print has long ago had paper mounted all around it to the blank margins. Print itself displays wrinkles in 4 corners, slight soft fold down middle, various other mostly very small or minor age-related issues. Offered as found, no apologies for condition, simply an old print someone fixed up in a skilful but slightly amateur way which shows they had some idea of what they were doing but were not a conservation lab. Priced accordingly.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The photos are a major part of the item description. Please examine them closely, as what you see is what we will send you. [note: we grade conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws.].

Print remains overall clean & sound. Old prints often display small minor repairs on the back, could have uneven blank margins, might have extraneous fold-lines or other small minor age flaws which do not detract from the visual appeal or value. Condition is carefully considered in arriving at our price.

Great print entirely worthy of hanging for display.

A depiction captured in a manner entirely unique to this era.
