Art of the Lithograph: Transfer of a Wood Engraving, Plate VI

Alois Senefelder

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from a book. The page is off-white and has a drawing of a man in the center. The man is wearing a hat and a long-sleeved shirt that is rolled up to the elbow, and shorts. He is standing on a rocky outcropping, with his right arm extended. Behind him is a tree to the left and a large rocky cliff face with foliage on the right. In the background, there are more trees and what appears to be a church or other building. Above the drawing is a Roman numeral "VI". Below the drawing is a line of text in French. The page is old and worn, with some discoloration and staining.
