Pilasters III and IV Order Nr. RAFFAEL252755 Image: 44.5 x 33 cm ( 17.5 x 12.9") Page size: 54 x 41 cm 21.2 x 16.1") The Vatican Loggie The Loggie del Vaticano are part of the three-story papal palace building, planned by Pope Julian II and finished by Pope Leo X. The building is the living quarter of the popes. And it is imaginable how much emphasis and attention it therefore had. Donato Bramante (1444 - 1514) was first commissioned with the architectural plans and with the artistic configurations and their execution for the building. After his death Raffael da Urbino (1483 - 1520 - also known as Raffaelo Santi or Raffaello Sanzio) received the assignment. One of the grand masters during the Renaissance, Raffael not only continued Bramante's plans, but also added his own ideas. He designed every detail of the frescos for which he drew from the limitless mythologigal sources which had been discovered in the antique world of Rome. Using mythology as a basis, Raffael added artistic elements of his time, thus creating a typical Renaissance melange. An assemblage of artists executed Raffael's visions, among them Giulio Romano, Perin del Vagas and Giovanni da Udine. This copper etching is from a series engraved by Francesco Rainaldi (Rome 1770 - 1805 Florence) after the drawings by Carlo Lasinio (Treviso 1759 - 1838 Pisa). Lasinio based his drawings on the imperial folio sized copper etchings by Giovanni Volpato (Bassano 1733 - 1803 Rome) and Giovanni Ottaviani (Rome 1735 - 1808). Instead of printing individual pilaster frescos, Rainaldi put two of them side by side, thereby achieving a breathtaking effect. The copper etchings of the series were printed in Rome in the year 1802. They have brilliant gouache-hand-coloring, attentively executed even in the smallest detail. An exquisite wall decoration for the discriminating classics-minded homeowner! The condition is very good. Normal age-connected flaws, such as general age toning, miniscule spotting, minor wrinkles, minor creases, minor repaired tears in margins if any at all etc. are normal and will not be mentioned.

"Moerswunder und seltzame thier wie die in Mitnaechtigen laendern gefunden werden" Hand-colored woodcut. Published in "Cosmographia" by Sebastian Muenster (1488-1552). This print was published in Basel in 1553. The woodcut was cut by Hans Rudolf Manuel Deutsch, who signed in the lower right corner of the woodcut with his initials: HRMD Muenster used the famous map "Carta Marina" by Olaus Magnus as model for his conglomerate of sea monsters. The "Carta Marina", a magnificent extra large map of Northern Europe was printed in Venice in 1539. Muenster condensed such mostly mythical and quite frightening sea monsters, with a sensational aspect to his "Cosmographia". On the reverse side of the print is an explanation of what we see on the fromt side (in the German language), a description of Greenland and the extended title for the sea monsters, where Muenster states that some of the sea monsters are equal to land animals. Condition: Attractive hand coloring. Next to centerfold another vertical crease. Some spots alongside centerfold. Margins all around show traces of age and use. In the left margin a repaired tear that does not reach into image.Reverse side of print shows reinforcements on centerfold, done probably centuries ago. There are two ink underlinings in the text and a few hand-written ink annotions. Aside from the mentioned conspicuities and considering its age this print is in quite good condition, especially attarctive is the typical hand cooling in the Renaissance style. 25,8 x 34,7 cm (ca. 11.2 x 13.7") Order Nr.

Bird's Eye View of the City of New York. Anonymous chromolithograph showing the Island of Manhattan in its center from an angular aerial position. Manhattan's buildings details are nicely define, not just as a plan but each building showing its architectural specifications, windows, roof tops etc. Same is true of the buildings of Brooklyn, Jersey City and Hoboken. In the foreground we are looking at Governors-Island and a busy News York harbor with plenty of sail ships, paddle steamers and sailboats. To the left we are looking at the Hudson River, to the right we see the East River with spectacular Brooklyn Bridge spanning it. When it opened in 1883 it was the first fixed crossing of the East River and, world-wide, the longest suspension bridge, 1595 feet (486 m) long: An impressive piece of architecture! What makes this view of New York so special is the artist's dedication to detail. Unfortunately the chromo lithograph does not reveal the name of the artist, nor the publisher or the printing date. Since Brooklyn Bridge shows as finished architecture, we may assume that this spectacular view was printed in the mid 1880ies. We may also assume that it was printed in New York, probably as a commissioned piece of art, maybe by a N.Y. galerist. Condition: The chromolithograph is mounted on cardboard, a happy circumstance which helped to keep it unfolded. The lithograph has a transparent glossy surface, which protected it through all these years. Age has slightly darkened the original color. Condition specifics worth mentioning: Lower right margin corner is bent backward, only the extreme corner missing - however not interfering with image. There are minor scratches in the glossy surface and some other minor traces of age and use. All four margins have some rubbing. In general this large spectacular half bird's eye view of New York City is in better than good condition.

"Cortège du Commandant Général des Apothicaires, le prince Lancelot de Tricanule, à son entrée dans la Chambre de Pairs" Cortege of the commander general of Apothecaries, the Prince of Lancelot de Tricanule, as he enters the Chambre de Pairs Ehrengeleit des kommandierenden Generals der Apotheker, des Prinzen von Lancelot de Tricanule, bei seinem Eintritt in die Chambre de Paris Lithograph by Honoré Daumier (1808-1879) Original hand-coloring Published by Aubert, Galérie Véro Dodat. Paris, August 1, 1833 Published sur blanc in "La Caricature" Pl. 299-300 Delteil XX, Nr. 65 The famous satirist Honoré Daumier is well known for his acrimonious sense of humor. The story behind this masterpiece of Daumier's early work: Daumier has Georges Mouton de Lobau (1770-1838), General and Marshall of France, marching in a cortege in a posture and conduct of "Here I come!" His arrival announced by a drummer and followed by subordinates carrying the insignia of the apothecary guild. Mouton was a member of the French Chamber of Deputies since 1828. He played an important role within the liberal opposition. King Louis-Philippe appointed him to be the Commanding General of the National Guard. Mouton became famous for having ordered the fire department of Paris to use their water hoses to disperse the outraged masses protesting the government action on Place Vendôme on May 12, 1831. On June 27, 1833 the King appointed him Marshall and Pair de France in return for this invention to control rebellious subjects. Daumier took this happening and Mouton's "invention" for a good reason to allude to the use of fire hoses by drawing Prince Lancelot de Tricanule with the enema (clyster) syringe being carried in the cortege. Light general age toning. Hardly visible light spots from mounting in the two upper corners. Splendid original hand coloring. Generally: Very good condition. 32 x 50,3 cm (ca. 12.5 x 19.8") Order Nr.

Amor and Psyche Cycle in Villa Farnesina, Rome One of the very large rooms in Villa Farnesina was adorned by Raffael and his workshop artists with a cycle in which the story of Amor and Psyche is told in adorable Renaissance style wall and ceiling frescos.

This work was begun and finished in the year 1518. Giovanni da Udine (1487-1564) executed RafFael's ideas formidably.

Seldom on the market. With decorative cartouche depicting native Americans in various poses. Map is embellished with indigenous animals of North America, Slave punishment, a battle scene of natives in Brazil, rich sail ship traffic on Atlantic and Pacific, a vague coast line idea of Australia. California is depicted as an island. This map is an early witness of J.B. Homann's mastership in map etching, which, in 1723, he had turned into a profitable business as he produced his famous atlas. Both, Sandrart and Homann were at the crest of German map makers as the center of gravity with regard to map making shifted from Amsterdam to Nuremberg and Augsburg.

Very good hand coloring.  Maps like this one, that were NOT bound in an atlas, but published as a single sheet map were not protected as well as if published in an atlas. Keeping a single sheet map over centuries was problematic. Over the life span of several centuries unprotected maps will most likely be damaged in various ways. This is also true for this beautiful map of Italy. There were several damages: The trimming to the edge of map - some tears have been repaired. The map was laid down on thin China paper, thus giving it support in weak places as well as repairing the few tears that had occurred during the centuries (most likely by having kept it stored rolled). There is some browning of the paper, noticeable especially in the portion of the Mediterranean Sea. We are trying to do our best to bring to attention all blemishes. But even with these blemishes this remains a very desirable, rare map. It is highly attractive and very decorative with the four surrounding pictorial border decorations. 46 x 54 cm (ca. 18.1 x 21.3") $ 5800.00 All maps of Italy are reduced by 30% now.

Persian miniature painting. In a Persian harem seven young women, accompanied by an elder chaperone, approach the Persian Shah, who receives them graciously. Persian miniature painting in fabulous metallic colorrs, gold-lined and partially guilded. Reverse side: Book text in hand-written black ink with red underlines. The painting is framed with hand-written text on either side and imbedded into ornamental gulded bordures. Repeatedly we seen the bordure images of peacocks.

Grand folio. 59.7 x 41 cm (ca. 23.5 x 41") Price for the PAIR: $ 5800.00 The following paragraph refers to both prints described above: Since the beaks and tails of the toucans, large as they are, bordered close to the paper edges, extension of margins was needed. In order to match the paper of the print, paper fibrillation was executed. This is an extraordinary technique to produce paper fibers, which are then professionally meshed with the existing print paper to extend it without visible transition. The result is a wider margin of the print. In order to give the widened prints support they were laid down on the thinnest of China paper. Order Nr. BIRDTOUCAN240900

Philographikon-Galerie Rauhut verkauft aus Privatbesitz Eine Portätbüste des Unternehmers Lambertus Hermann Julius Rütgers (1830 Bensberg - Berlin 1903). Lambertus Hermann Julius Rütgers war ein bedeutender deutscher Unternehmer, ein Chemie-Pionier der ersten Stunde. Sein Vater, Martin Rütgers, hatte 1847 in Neuss die erste deutsche Imprägnierfabrik für Eisenbahnschwellen gegründet. Nach französischem Vorbild benutzte er Schwefelbarium und Eisenvitriol oder Kupfervitriol, um die Holzschwellen, für die ein wachsender Bedarf entstanden war, haltbar zu machen. Aber die Revolution von 1848 brachte die gerade in Fahrt kommende Produktion fast zum Stillstand und die Firma in finanzielle Schwierigkeiten, weil der Eisenbahnbau ihres grössten Auftraggebers, der Aachen-Düsseldorfer Eisenbahngesellschaft, ins Stocken kam.   Martin Rütgers Sohn Julius hatte 1846, sechzehnjährig und ohne Abschluss die Schule verlassen und eine Landwirtschaftsausbildung in Schlesien begonnen.Er war so talentiert, dass ihm schon 1848 die Leitung des Landgutes anvertraut wurde. 1849 übernahm Julius Rütgers die Schulden und den Betrieb seines Vaters. Mit dem wieder aufkeimenden und an Rasanz zunehmenden Bahnausbau in Europa standen seine Erfolgschancen gut. Ein Grossauftrag der Cöln-Mindener Eisenbahn brachte die Produktion in Schwung. Rütgers gründete sein erstes Imprägnierwerk in Essen, wo er nach John Bethell's Imprägnierverfahren auf der Basis von Teeröl produzierte. Das war der tatsächliche Ursprung der Rütgerswerke. 1854 verlegte Rütgers die Produktion und seinen Wohnsitz nach Breslau. Von hier aus belieferte er ganz Europa mit imprägnierten Eisenbahnschwellen. 1859 verlegte Rütgers Firmen- und Wohnsitz nach Erkner bei Berlin. Im Laufe der Jahre gründete Rütgers in ganz Europa 77 Imprägnieranstalten, wo für ganz Europa (um 1900 waren 36000 Km Bahnlinien hergestellt) Eisenbahnschwellen imprägniert wurden. Die Firmenzentrale errichtete er in Berlin-Charlottenburg.   Rütgers leitete sein Unternehmen bis zu seinem Tod im Jahr 1903. Sein einziger Sohn und Erbe, Rudolph Rütgers, starb nur sechs Monate nach seinem Vater.   Der Preis der Büste beträgt Euro 18500,00 Die Büste steht in Rottenbuch. Transportkosten trägt der Käufer. Beschreibung der Büste: Die Büste ist ein Einzelstück. Sie besteht aus weissem Carrara-Marmor. Sie ist 62 cm hoch. Die Schulterbreite beträgt 59 cm. Darunter Namensockel aus hochpoliertem Marmor mit eingemeisselten Namen: "Juls Rütgers" (sic). Der Namensockel ist 15 cm hoch und 42 cm breit.   Vom Betrachter aus gesehen rechts im Schulterbereich hat der Künstler, Norbert Pfretzschner, sein Monogramm "NP" eingemeisselt. Die Büste mit Namensockel steht auf einer zugehörigen und für sie angefertigten matt polierten Steinsäule. Sie ist 129 cm hoch und hat 28 cm x 28 cm Kantenbreite. Unten ist sie etwas ausgestellt, unterhalb des Büstenansatzes etwas eingerückt. Die Gesamthöhe der Skulptur mit Namenssockel und Säule beträgt 2,06 m. Der Dargestellte dürfte zum Zeitpunkt der Portraitierung etwa sechzig Jahre alt gewesen sein. Die Büste dürfte also um 1891/95 entstanden sein. Die Büste hat einen minimalen Marmorverlust an der linken vorderen Ecke. Sonst ist sie gänzlich unbeschädigt. Der Namensockel hat einige minimale Beschädigungen. Der weisse Carrara-Marmor ist gereinigt worden, ohne die erworbene Patina einer im Freien stehenden Skulptur vollends zu beseitigen. Provenienz der Büste: Die Büste hat Jahrzehnte lang in Berlin im Freien gestanden vermutlich in der Firmenzentrale Charlottenburg, die Rütgers 1872 gründete. Rütgers einziger leiblicher Erbe, sein Sohn Rudolph, starb nur wenige Monate nach seinem Vater, ebenfalls im Jahr 1903. Durch Erbschaft gelangte die Büste in eine Seitenlinie der Familie Rütgers, wo sie eingelagert wurde. Nach weiteren Erbfällen gelangte die Büste in den Besitz meines Auftraggebers.   Der Künstler: Norbert Pfretzschner (1850 Kufstein - Lana (Südtirol) 1927) war ein österreichischer Bildhauer.

"The Barn Door" Mzzotinto engraving. Printed in color and hand-finished. Engraver: William Ward (1766-1826) Painter: George Morland (1763-1804) Publisher: T. Simpson. London, dated 1792 Rustic scene, typical for George Morland. albeit he goes slightly into erotic happenings. A farm boy catches and embraces the milk maid from behind. Her welcoming smile is suggesting only flimsy objection as he reaches unscrupulously for her bosom, while the stable help is watching the forward approach of his pal with openly displayed envy. From out the open barn door a cow observes the scene with little emotion, while two donkeys couldn't care less and a sow forages the ground contently. The print has been mounted on cardboard. Right margin added. The print had obviously been framed and had decorated a wall space somewhere for some time. By mounting a print on a cardboard it looses some value. Passing time and the fact that this print had been exposed to air and light for long has also diminished its value. Taking this into account we have discounted the value of this print.

We have to offer an exceptional set of excessively decorative and colorful large folio-size African bird prints.: Turocos belonging to the bird family of Musaphaga.

Musaphoga-Turaco birds live in sub-Sahara countries: Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, West Africa, Cameroon, Congo, Angola, Zambia, Tanzania, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana, South Africa. The complete sequence: ãDe Toerako's afgebeeld en beschreven" Publishers: Hermann Schlegel and G.F. Westermann Lithographer: P.W.M. Trap Published: Amsterdam, 1860 Size: ca. 72 x 52 cm (ca. 28 x 20") Here it is, a unique, most decorative set of 17 colorful hand-finished lithographs, hightened with eggwhite . The paradisical birds are shown life-size. They are excessively decorative and make a precious, one of a kind wall decoration in a sophisticated, pretentious African home or any home decorated in African style. What makes these prints unique is their hand-finished color. The series, as printed in Amsterdam was chromo-printed with only scarce habitat around the birds. The artist gave these lithographs the exceedingly beautiful final touch by spreading the habitat all over the grand-folio-size lithograph.

Die gross-folio Vogel-Serie ist in Amsterdam entstanden unter dem Namen "De Toerako's afgebeeld en beschreven". Herausgeber waren Hermann Schlegel (1804-1884) und Georg Friedrich Westermann (1810-1879) Die Chromo-Lithographien wurden von P.W.M. Trapp angefertigt Erscheinungsdatum: Amsterdam, 1860 Abmessungen: Höhe ca. 72 cm. Breite ca. 52 cm Was diese hier von uns angebotene Serie so einmalig macht, ist das Kolorit. Man muss wissen, dass die Chromolithos, wie sie seinerzeit in Amsterdam erschienen, neben den Vögeln kaum ihr Habitat zeigen. Die Vögel sitzen auf einem Ast, ein paar Zweige und Blätter um sie herum. Unsere Serie hat ein Künstler mit Phantasie und Sachverstand verzaubert, indem er mit Aquarellfarben das Habitat der Vögel ergänzt und erweitert hat. Er tat das mit viel Einfühlungsvermögen und schuf 17 Unikate von höchstem dekorativen Wert. Die Lithographien, die Ursprünglich eher blass und leblos wirkten, sind nun reich mit Leben erfüllt. Die Turakos gehören zur Familie der Musophagas. Sie leben in Afrika südlich der Sahel-Zone im Sudan, in Ethiopia, Somalia, Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, West Afrika, Cameroon, Congo, Angola, Zambia, Tanzania, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana und South Africa. Wir stellen uns ein anspruchsvoll afrikanisch eingerichtetes Haus vor, in dem Wandplatz keinen Mangel kennt und darauf diese farbenfrohen grossformatigen Lithographien mit den afrikanischen Vögeln. Was für ein gewaltiger Eindruck da entsteht! Die komplette Serie von 17 Original-Lithographien mit diesem einmaligen Handkolorit können Sie bei uns erwerben.
