Lovely ANTIQUE Engraving of the "CAMEL MARKET".A Sheik in Victorian Egypt!Plate measures 9" X 12", picture area is 7" X 9.5".EXCELLENT CONDITION!!! Very good quality, quite solid and heavy Ivory Colored Paper with Black Print! From the portfolio "PICTURESQUE EGYPT", by Professor G. Ebers, published in 1885. This Marvelous Antique Portfolio came from a Hollywood collection of early Exotic Furnishings, many pieces from hotels or theaters built in the 1920's and 1930's, Originally having Moroccan Spanish Revival Decor, what might be called Mediterranean or even "Hollywood Regency" today. The collection has the Most wonderful Exotic Oriental and Moorish Lamps and Lanterns, some of which are listed this week!
I have additional engravings listed this week, Harem Scenes, Egyptian Temples, Scenes of the Nile, Monuments, Valley of the Kings, and Sahara Desert, and Fabulous Portraits of the various peoples of the land in native dress. Looks wonderful with other exotic furniture and decor! A Fabulous Decorator Piece, with Historic Ambience as well. It would look Gorgeous with Middle Eastern, ART Nouveau, Art Deco, Egyptian Revival Decor also!!! Would make an impressive and thoughtful Gift! $12 |
