Description

1895 Antique Print Stray printer's plate ink specks; Some light age & handling wear This very ornate image is 125+ years old. This is from "The American Dictionary and Cyclopedia" (1895). This is an original print not a reproduction. This nice image measures approximately 6" x 8" on stock paper measuring approximate 8" x 10". The picture does not capture all of the detail in the print and may exaggerate the antique paper coloring. Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1496–1497) was an Italian sculptor, painter, architect, and poet during the High Renaissance. His work was inspired by classical antiquity and had a lasting impact on Western art. Michelangelo is known for his Sistine Chapel ceiling paintings, which depict Old Testament scenes and draw millions of visitors to Rome each year. He also created the marble sculpture Bacchus, which depicts the Roman god of wine in a drunken pose. Note: Some of the shading in the image (the corners) is a result of the photo. I have over 200 famous people, scientists, politicians, writers, artists, presidents, kings, queens, religious leaders, philosophers, actors, etc., in this same style of print. What a great piece of history. Item #AD0718-0859 Authenticity : This is an original historical item, meaning it was taken directly from the book, periodical, newspaper, etc., in which it was published. Condition : It is in very good condition but may have naturally occurring printing faults in the image area (e.g., printer's ink specks...all visible (if any) in picture. Very minor age toning is to be expected.

  1. This seller offered great service and communication despite my own lack of attention to my messages on this platform. When I had purchased an item that had been accidentally listed as a different print, the seller reached out, and then sent BOTH items to make sure I had what I intended to buy. I have purchased from this seller and the past and look forward to continuing to patronize him in the future.

  2. This little print is just lovely, above my exceptions. It's a gift for a friend, we were in Portugal together in April, I will have it framed and this will be a one of a kind reminder of the fun we had. Shipping was fast, item was packed extremely well, seller provided lots of communication and shipment was timely.

  3. Good packaging, accurate description. Took longer than I expected due to a shipping mixup (that wasn’t the sellers fault) and they submitted an inquiry to find the package once it was made known it never arrived. Good communication.
