Set of Four Antique German Anatomical Copper Engraving Plate Prints - Framed
$ 438.24
Description
About the Item For sale is a set of four original antique anatomical copperplate engravings , offered together as one complete and unified lot. The prints originate from German medical and anatomical folios published circa the mid-18th century and were produced for academic and physician reference during the Baroque period, not as decorative reproductions. Each sheet is an authentic copperplate engraving printed on laid paper , exhibiting strong line work, visible plate impressions , and period ink saturation consistent with 18th-century printing methods. The plates depict cranial, ocular, auditory, skeletal, and thoracic anatomy and include period typography in Latin and German. Engraver credits appear within the plates, including L. A. Fridrich, G. Lichtenegger, and B. Probst , as shown in the photographs. These are period impressions consistent with original publication-era production. The architectural cartouches, scientific notation, and compositional style reflect the scholarly rigor of German anatomical publishing during the Enlightenment era. Individual sheets from comparable folios are often encountered singly; this offering presents a balanced and intentional four print grouping. All four prints are presented in matching frames for a unified and visually striking presentation. Framed later than the pressing, the frames are included for display purposes but are exquisite; the prints have not been examined outside the frames. This set is offered strictly as a group and will not be separated. Overall very good antique condition with age-appropriate toning, light handling marks, and minor imperfections consistent with 18th-century laid paper and copperplate printing. No major tears, losses, or repairs were observed. Frames show light cosmetic wear from prior use and storage, with some paint loss. Item sold as photographed.
