Religious Penance Whipping beating Ancient Jews 1789 antique print engraved

Religious Penance Observed by the Ancient Jews

(Religion, Jews, Beatings)

Fascinating and uncommon late 18th century engraved print.

Issued 1789, London

Image is set within an ornate engraved border, the histrorical scene of beatings being conducted within a church setting quite remarkable to modern eyes.

An actual antique/ vintage printed sheet of paper, not a modern copy or reprint of an old print. The sheet could show signs of age difficult to capture digitally, but if we are offering it for sale you can be 100% certain it is entirely worthy of ownership by even the most discerning collector or dealer.

Sheet remains well preserved, keeping in mind it is not modern or new, so minor flaws to paper are sometimes to be expected. Some light age wear or surface spotting/ soiling, all of which is hopefully visible within the image(s).

Paper and image remains overall clean & sound. Old maps & 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.

Attractive and appealing old vintage antique print entirely worthy of hanging for display.

A style and manner of depiction entirely unique to this era.

Sheet measures c.  12 7/8" H x   8 1/2" W.

Printed area measures c. 10 1/2" H x  5 7/8" W
