Included in this lot is the 1889 lithograph print of "The Little Falconer" originally a sketch by Felix Stone Mosheles (1833-1917), an English painter, writer, peace activist and advocate of Esperanto. He frequently painted genre scenes and portraits. Engraved for printing by Paul Naumann for The Illustrated News of London June 22, 1889. Naumann (1851-1897) born in Leipzig, was a reproductive wood-engraver, printmaker and worked for the News from 1888-1896. His name is listed in the 1985 Dictionary of Victorian Wood Engravers by R.K.Engen. This page from the Illustrated London News has local news stories at the bottom of the page, including a brief update of the armed conflict in colonial "Upper Burmah". The Illustrated London News appeared first on Saturday 14 May 1842, as the world's first illustrated weekly news magazine. Photographic and printing techniques were advancing in the later years of the 19th century, and The Illustrated London News began to introduce photos and artwork into its depictions of weekly events. From about 1890, The Illustrated London News made increasing use of photography. The tradition of graphic illustrations continued, however, until the end of World War I. The hand coloured sketch engraving print exhibits wonderful details consistent with similar art from the Victorian era of Great Britain. The whole page exhibits humidity caused warping, age tanning is also noted. Measures 11.25"W x 16"L
