Art of the Lithograph: Printing Letters, Plate XV

Alois Senefelder

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from an old book with a white background and brown edges. The page is off-white with darker spots and discoloration around the edges. There is a thin string tied along the top edge. The page has three sections of text. The first section is centered at the top and reads "XV" on one line, followed by "Transport. d'une epreuve fraiche." on the next line. The text below is in French and appears to be a poem or passage. The second section is larger and contains Latin text in a decorative font. It appears to be a quotation or passage. The third section is written in French and appears to be a description or explanation of something. The text is written in black ink and is in various fonts and sizes. The page appears to be aged and worn, with visible signs of use and handling.
