Crisantemes, 1899
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning and intricately designed book by the renowned Spanish artist Alexandre de Riquer. This antique, bound volume showcases 96 illustrations, including a half title, 9 initials, 17 head pieces, 32 tail pieces, and 36 in-text illustrations. The illustrations are a beautiful depiction of chrysanthemums, a symbol of the autumn season and the imperial family in Japan. The illustrations were created using chromolithography, a technique that involved using multiple lithographic stones, each coated with a different color, to produce a multi-colored image. The result is a vibrant and detailed representation of the chrysanthemums, with each petal and leaf intricately rendered. The cover of the book is embossed with a beautiful design, adding to its aesthetic appeal. The black and white illustrations, while not in color, still convey a sense of elegance and sophistication. The book is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the late 19th century and the art of illustration during that time. The illustrations in "Crisantemes, 1899" are not only visually appealing but also serve as a historical record of the artistic and literary trends of the time. The book would be a valuable addition to any art center, art gallery, or personal collection of antique and historic art. The graphic design and lettering in the book are also noteworthy, reflecting the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the time. Overall, "Crisantemes, 1899" is a beautiful and historic artifact that continues to captivate and inspire viewers to this day.
