Set of Four 19th Century Amercian Lithographs

1900 - 1920
Description

Set of 4 Turn of the Century American Lithographic Framed Prints

Controversial and illustrated in the typical turn of the Century American fashion. A set of four vibrantly coloured lithographic prints, framed in unusual gothic pine frames. With brass hooks still attached, the reverse clearly show that these images have never been removed or replaced since they would have been framed in the 1900s. Depicting life’s process of the Afro American, from courting to creating a family. We have never seen the like and in this collection/condition, you are unlikely to see the same ever again.

Dimensions in inches: H 14.5 x D 11.5 x W 1

Origin: America

Circa: 1900 - 1920

Condition: Aged

Completely solid in structure and form, aged surface as shown with a deep natural patina across all areas. No breaks but the frames and prints are discoloured and faded as you would come to expect of item of this material and age.

The House of Antiques sells authentic antique decorative objects, we do not refurbish or repair items unless stated or unless completely necessary to the item’s stability or longevity. These objects are old so please expect wear and tear.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Colour lithography, or chromolithography, gained widespread popularity in the 19th century as a technique for reproducing multi-coloured images using stone or zinc plates. These prints frequently depicted narrative scenes, portraiture, and regional life for decorative display in homes.

Cross-corner frames, often associated with Oxford or folk art framing traditions, were constructed with extended corner joints featuring carved projections. Typically crafted from pine or walnut, they were assembled using simple joinery and stained or varnished to highlight the wood grain.

Authentic period lithographs display subtle stipple or ink patterns visible under magnification rather than the uniform dot matrices found in modern digital reproductions. The paper commonly displays natural age toning, minor foxing, and evidence of historical mounting.

Arrange the four frames in a symmetrical two-by-two grid to form a structured focal point on a wall. The dark timber frames pair well with dark wood furniture, neutral backgrounds, or traditional wall panelling.

Display paper prints away from direct sunlight and areas of high humidity to prevent fading and discoloration. Wipe the wooden frames gently with a dry microfibre cloth, taking care not to introduce moisture to the paper or glass.
