About the Item

This print originates from volume 9 of 'Historische Beschrijving der Reizen' published by P. de Hondt. Artists and Engravers: Jakob van der Schley (26th July 1715 - 12th February 1779), also known as Jan von Schley or Jacobus van Schley, was a Dutch engraver and draughtsman. An apprentice of the French engraver Bernard Picart, he is best known for his engravings of the majority of plates in the Dutch edition of 'l'Histoire Géneral des Voyages.' Despite producing mainly maps and views for this work, van der Schley was predominantly a portrait artist and literary illustrator. Condition: Good, general age-related toning. Minor wear and soiling, blank verso. Please study image carefully. Date: 1749 Overall size: 19 x 26 cm. Image size: 14 x 20 cm.

These plates were handmade out of wood or metal, which required an incredible level of skill, patience and craftsmanship. Whether you have a house with Victorian furniture or more contemporary decor an old engraving can enhance your living space.
