Lot 4009, Auction  124, Belitski, Ludwig, Glassware

Glassware. Circa 1854. Salted paper print with cut corners, mounted to original board (some foxing, light soiling in edges). 21,5 x 17,3 cm (46,2 x 34,2 cm). With embossed coat of arms on lower margin of image and number stamp in upper right corner of mount.

The Prussian baron Alexander von Minutoli frequently loaned his model collection to schools of applied arts. As the objects were often damaged during handling, he commissioned photographic reproductions for wider circulation. In 1853, Minutoli hired Ludwig Belitski, a photographer from Liegnitz in Silesia (now Legnica, Poland), to create these reproductions on paper. This significant commission earned Belitski international recognition and resulted in seven folio-sized volumes containing 663 plates, which garnered him awards in Brussels and Amsterdam in 1855 and 1856. – Some fading in upper margin, otherwise a strong print in very good condition.
