EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Presse lithographique à étoile, an engraving machine from the 19th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and was created by the French School during this period of great innovation and progress. The Presse lithographique à étoile, depicted in intricate detail, was used for printing illustrations for Les Inventions Merveilleuses (The Wonderful Inventions) by Charles Brandon. This particular illustration comes from Otto Spamer's publication around 1875. The image transports us back to the early 19th century, offering a glimpse into the fascinating world of print shops and their bustling print rooms. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of technology and invention. As we admire this historic engraving, it is impossible not to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in its creation. The attention to detail is remarkable, showcasing the skill of both the engraver and illustrator. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece of history through their Fine Art Finder collection. Their dedication to capturing historical moments allows us to delve into our past while appreciating how these inventions shaped our present-day society. This print invites us to reflect on our own advancements while paying homage to those who paved the way for modern printing techniques.
