This is one of two banners from a double-page spread of sketches in the middle of a satirical (i expect) article about Un Anglais En Voyage.

A 1680s book i apparently bought for $60 years ago... about horrid people like atheists, popes, apostates, tyrants, sailors and more. Here, a pope makes a king stand barefoot in the snow for 3 days, along with his wife and son. In the end the pope’s mistress interceded.

Moderne Kunst again.
I translated the caption Moselblümchen as At the Wine Festival to try and capture the spirit of it: seems it can be the wine or the outfit or the flowers maybe round her head. Or all three.
Josef Lieck was known for capturing “feminine beauty” which here seems to be the suggestion of what might follow the drink…

Another from engraving Moderne Kunst magazine (1898)
Mazeppa, the youth on the horse, was a Ukrainian cossack (1639 – 1709). After going a bit too far with the wife of a nobleman of the court, was strapped naked to a wild “Tartar” horse that was then made to gallop across the Steppes. He became very badly injured, but went on to become a hetman, or commander, and a leader in Ukraine.

Engraving of 2 lions, and detail.
This is another engraving from the books with awesome covers, vol 1 this time. Orig. painting by Paul Friedrich Meyerheim (1842 – 1915).

From the book with the fab cover but not an engraving - an early use of a dot screen for fine art work. The largest sizes will print well in black and white, but test carefully for possible moiré patterns.
An article about a book of German poetry which used this drop cap.

One of the plates from the book whose cover i posted yesterday, this Albert von Keller painting shows a witch in a hypnotic trance, supposedly to negate pain. Plate is approx. 9x13 inches.
The artist was criticised for showing a teenager and in the wrong historical costume, but his goal was merely painting the trance (and, originally, a bare-breasted woman).

I fell in love with these huge (A3-size) books in Prague. I’ve seen the cover design described as pretentious (like me) but the full-page engravings are really fabulous.
The book only just fits on the scanner i use, with a few mm (eighth of an inch) to spare.
