| This lithograph is one of three recently acquired in Puerto Rico--It is painted by German artist Eduard Hilderbrandt 1818-1869- it is signed on the lower right and on the lower left hand side JAPAN NAGASAKI is painted into the litho-14.5 inches by 9.5 inches-add 1/2 inch for gold leaf frame--there is minor foxing over the mountains and the photos are so annotated-otherwise condition is excellent.artist spent most of his life traveling and his paintings are made at the site--this litho came from Germany via Venezuela and finally to Puerto Rico-like the artist the work is well traveled-any distortions or reflections are the result of photographing thru glass in less than studio conditions--this not only beautiful -it is a historical record of Nagasaki ,Japan at about 150 years ago--if the Japanese are not broke, they should by it and put in the Nagasaki historical museum--it is most certainly cheaper than Rockerfeller Center was and much better buy--Artist has serious sales record and listed extensively-found in musuems in France and Germany | |||||||||
