Knötel, R. - Reiterei. (Deutsche Uniformen, Bekleidung und Ausrüstung / German Military Uniforms, Clothing and Equipment). [Meyers Konversations-Lexikon]. [ORIGINAL CHROMOLITHOGRAPH WITH 39 IMAGES OF UNIFORM STUDIES].

Leipzig, Bibliographisches Institut, Ca. 1850. Print. Single-sheet chromolithographic print. With 39 numbered illustrations of military uniforms in 6 groups. Captioned at head on the stone. Plus copied leaf of text with legend to identify each and every image. In fine condition. ~ Extract from Meyers Konversations-Lexikon. Signed by Richard Knötel on the stone. Beautifully illustrated military uniforms of various armies and forces. With dense colours and excellent gloss. An authoritative manual on chromolithography in 1885 (Colour and Colour Printing, by W. D. Richmond) asserts the need for at least 9 separate stones to achieve such richness, but in fact the number of stones used was often more than 20. The print measures 24.5x31 cm overall size and 20x26.5 cm image size and is most suitable for framing. Clamshell .
