Collection of 61 Dueling Prints
|
|
A gathering of antique prints, various sources, publishers, and dates, relating to dueling, by swords or pistols through history and fictionalized in plays and novels. A handful also include intervention by women in duels. Examples include Shakespeare's Falstaff, and Fielding's Tom Jones. Most are professionally uniformly mounted on 12 x 9.5 inch sheets. It can be posited that they were formerly part of a collecting of dueling prints, or were preparatory work for part of a unique manuscript book about dueling.
Condition: Condition varies, most good to very good with the usual overall toning, wear, soiling, soft creases. Some with scattered foxing, minor short tears, chipped edges. Sold as a collection of prints, as is. |
