Art of the Lithograph: Three Engraving Examples, Plate XI

Alois Senefelder

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from an old book with the Roman numeral "XI" at the top center. The page contains three black and white illustrations. The top illustration depicts a group of people, some holding spears or other long objects, standing in front of what appears to be a decorative background. The middle illustration shows four people standing in a line, with two on the left wearing long dresses and head coverings, and two on the right, one in a long dress and one in a shorter jacket and hat. The bottom illustration shows a street scene with buildings on either side and a horse-drawn vehicle in the center. The page is off-white with brown spots and stains, and the edges are worn and discolored. The page appears to be yellowed with age and has a string or cord at the top.
