no binding. Condition: very good. The print titled "House of John Knox, Edinburgh" is a colored lithograph featured in Old England: A Pictorial Museum of Regal, Ecclesiastical, Municipal, Baronial, and Popular Antiquities (1845), published by James Sangster and Co., under the editorial guidance of Charles Knight. This evocative street scene depicts the historic residence of the Scottish Reformer John Knox, a central figure in the Protestant Reformation, located on Edinburgh's Royal Mile. The building's stepped gables, small-paned windows, and projecting oriel window reflect traditional 16th-century Scottish urban architecture. A sign marked "HOUSE OF JOHN KNOX" designates the landmark, while a nearby hanging placard for "MILK!!" adds authenticity to the domestic setting. The foreground is animated with daily life?women gather water at a public fountain, a street vendor kneels with her goods, and others chat along the stone steps?lending a sense of bustling, working-class routine to this historic locale. The print is signed by the lithographer, identifiable as ?S. Read÷ (Samuel Read), an English illustrator known for historical scenes and architectural subjects. His characteristic style?vivid coloration, precise architectural detail, and anecdotal human presence?imbues this visual document with both historical and folkloric charm, capturing not only the building but also the living context of 19th-century Edinburgh.

As scanned. Blank on the back. Chromolithography is a method for making multi-colour prints. This type of colour printing stemmed from the process of lithography, and includes all types of lithography that are printed in colour. When chromolithography is used to reproduce photographs, the term photochrome is frequently used. Lithographers sought to find a way to print on flat surfaces with the use of chemicals instead of raised relief or recessed intaglio techniques.A chromolithograph is also known as an oleograph. The process was started in the early 1800's.This beautiful print would look great matted and framed. Or an art supply store can provide you with a selection of frames for old art treasures. This is a GENUINE ANTIQUE PRINT. It is NOT a modern reproduction, ie. a laser scan, photocopy etc. It is the original from the antique publication.
