我找到了
"Battle of Waterloo. June 18th. 1815."N. Currier, 1838-56. Small folio. 8 1/2 x 12 1/4.
只卖250美金。无语。。。。。。
"Battle of Waterloo. June 18th. 1815." New York: N. Currier, 1838-56. Small folio. 8 1/2 x 12 1/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. A few stains at edge of left margin. Else, very good condition. C:437.
A nice exmaple of the output of the leading American printmaking firm. This print was issued early in the career of Nathaniel Currier, before he took his bookkeeper, James Ives, as a partner to create Curier & Ives. Currier issued prints of any subject he thought would sell, and the existence of this print indicates the interest in Napoleon on this side of the Atlantic.
另外一个版本:
Napoleon At Waterloo. Chicago: Kurz & Allison, ca. 1890. Ca. 11x 17. Lithograph. Very good condition.
The Chicago firm of Kurz & Allison is well known for its production of commemorative prints of historical scenes. Founded in 1885, the firm’s avowed purpose was to design “for large scale establishments of all kinds, and in originating and placing on the market artistic and fancy prints of the most elaborate workmanship.” Elaborate they certainly were- the majority of their prints being bright and dramatic, with action throughout the image. Drawn in a broad, graphic style that developed from Kurz’s background as a muralist, these prints would have graced the homes of many nineteenth century American. $275
那个Kurz是个比较有名气的画家,我的《南北战争》画集里好多彩色的就是他画的。
