c. 180 x 188 mm; Hand-coloured etching. Slightly stained. c. 1800 (n.d.) Very rare anamorphose depicting an old man with rakes. The anamorphose shows the figures stretched to a semi-circle, with in its centre a small circle. When a metal cylindrical mirror is placed on this central circle, the reflected image will show the figures correctly. The anamorphose has a printed number in a corner (10), so it probably comes from a set of more anamorphoses. // Wir, das Antiquariat Steffen Völkel, kaufen und verkaufen alte Bücher, Handschriften, Zeichnungen, Autographen, Grafiken und Fotografien.

c. 180 x 188 mm; Hand-coloured etching. Slightly stained. c. 1800 (n.d.) Very rare anamorphose depicting two musicians, one playing the violin, the other one playing another instrument with strings, possibly a mandolin. The anamorphose shows the figures stretched to a semi-circle, with in its centre a small circle. When a metal cylindrical mirror is placed on this central circle, the reflected image will show the figures correctly. The anamorphose has a printed number in a corner (7), so it probably comes from a set of more anamorphoses. An almost identical anamorphose of the two musicians was published by Johann Michael Burucker from Nuremberg. (c.f. Füsslin/Hentze p. 65). // Wir, das Antiquariat Steffen Völkel, kaufen und verkaufen alte Bücher, Handschriften, Zeichnungen, Autographen, Grafiken und Fotografien.
