Franz Hogenberg - View Of Blanmont - Etching - Late 16th Century

Chairish

$429

This map of Blanmont is an original etching realized by George Braun and Franz Hogenberg as part of the famous Series ''Civitates Orbis Terrarum''. The “Civitates Orbis Terrarum” (Atlas of Cities of the World) was the second oldest printed atlas in the history of world cartography and the first atlas totally dedicated to topographical views. The first volume of this collection was published in Cologne in 1572; the following others in 1575, 1581, 1588, and 1598. The sixth and final volume appeared in 1617. The state of preservation of the artwork is aged with diffused foxings and the middle lne on the folding had been cut and is partially repaired and a cut a way on the up-right anglr. Sheet dimension :40.5 x 53.5 Interesting B/W etching on coeval paper, this artwork represents skilfully a detailed view of the city of Blanmont through confident strokes. ''Blanmont'' is printed at the top. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no official proof of authenticity, however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
