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.

I’m not sure whether the frame here was part of Dobson’s painting, but i love it. Dobson’s paintings were known for the “innocence of the young”, a popular theme in England in the 2nd half of the 18th century.

There’s also a version with just the frame.

The scaled-down images in Mastdon look much better in Firefox than Chrome here.

A chromolithograph, done with maybe a dozen different impressions each with its own solid colour to build up an image.

Penrhyn Castle was rebuilt c. 1830 using profits from slave labour, so it’s controversial today. Its also an unusual Neo-Norman castle.

This could be either Jesus or John, but probably Jesus.

This figure was floating in the left-hand side of a full-page border used in Darboy’s 1855 edition of the Imitation of Christ; there are full-page borders on every page, but they repeat.

This line-drawing of an owl looks startlingly modern, with eyes wide as if in surprise, body twisted, wings spread for takeoff. It was in the bottom-left corner of a full-page border from Darboy’s 1855 edition of the Imitation of Christ.

https://www.fromoldbooks.org/Darboy-ImitationOfChrist/pages/310-full-page-christian-border-detail-angel-with-incense/

This is a detail from the full-page border engraving i posted recently.

The censer, or thurible , burns incense, with the smoke representing prayers going up to heaven. Which is where the angels are when they are not in Ethiopia. So maybe this is a fallen angel?

Angels gained wings in the 4th century or so; Biblical angels don’t have them.

'Bat and double happiness' matchbox label (Japanese export for the Chinese market). Woodblock print on paper, c. 1910

A scene from the Pied Piper by Julius Wolff.

I love the dark alleyway on our right, with the façades of houses dimly visible in the shadows. Great work for an engraving!

Art by Paul Thumann (1834 – 1908).

A large book, maybe 14 or 16 inches high, with a bright cover. The book is a retelling of the Pied Piper of Hamelin, or a novel based on it, i’m not sure.

Usually i don’t post the covers here, but this one is quite fun.
