Seller's Description
Original 21 1/2 inch x 29 1/2 inch Engraving titled HOME AT NAZARETH.
From a picture by William Holyoake (1834 - 1894). English painter of genre and historical subjects. He was a member of the Royal Society of British Artists, where he exhibited 53 paintings.
Printed by Leighton Brothers
The Leighton Brothers firm was established in 1849 by George Cargill Leighton (1826-1895), his brothers, Steven Leighton (1834-1920) and Charles Blair Leighton (1823-1855). Their firm specialized in early engravings printed in color. Experiments in printing wood engravings in colors began about 1850. The two great innovators in this field were Edmund Evans (The printer behind Kate Greenaway and Walter Crane) and George Leighton, who, after forming Leighton Brothers Company produced some of the largest color engravings of the Victorian era. In 1855, the Leighton Brothers printed the first color engraving to be issued in a 'Christmas Supplement' for 'The Illustrated London News'.
From The Illustrated London News December 15th, 1875
The engraving is in very good condition with one vertical fold, one horizontal fold and a stain in the lower left corner.
