Seller's Description
Original 1952 Reprint 13 1/2 inch x 8 1/2 inch Colour Print of the 1847 Lithograph titled ADAM NAMING THE CREATURES
Originally produced in 1869 by Currier and Ives. The New York firm of Currier & Ives grew from a printing business established by Nathaniel Currier (1813–1888) in 1835. Expansion led, in 1857, to a partnership with brother-in-law James Merritt Ives (1824–1895). The firm operated until 1907, lithographing over 4,000 subjects for distribution across America and Europe with popular categories including landscape, marines, natural history, genre, caricatures, portraits, history and foreign views. Until the 1880s, images were printed in monochrome, then hand-colored by women who worked for the company at home.
Inscription under the image: “Entered according to Act of Congress in the Year 1847, by N. Currier, in the Clerks Office of the District Court of the Southern District of New York // REPRINTED FROM LITH. BY N. CURRIER.”
