Product code: Buying Framed 1843 Lithograph Depicting French Court Life, Versailles, Eugene Lami, Fine Art Salvage

Eugene Lami (1800 -1890) was a wonderful French lithographer and watercolor painter whose work centered on French court life. Educated at the Ecole de Beaux Arts, he began his lithography career around 1824 and quickly rose to prominence and in 1832 he was appointed Court Painter to Louis Philippe at Versailles. In 1839 he was awarded the rank of Chevalier of Legion of Honor. In the 1830s and into the 1840s, Eugene had an intimate and extremely close view of French court life, and depicted those scenes in many lithographs and later watercolors. He followed Louis into exile to England in the 1848-1852 period. It appears that this piece was probably made in England during one of Lami's visits and before his move to England. This piece depicts the arrival at a palace, and was published on October 1, 1843. The people, horses, and carriages in the foreground are visiting a grand chateau or palace, perhaps Versailles, shown peeking through the trees in the background. Beautifully and gently colored. This lithograph is in quite good condition, apparently framed in this archival fine art frame in 1991. Matted and under glass, this is wired and ready to hang. The frame measures 12 1/4" high and 14" wide and the frame is 1" deep.

This is one of 4 Eugene Lami lithographs in similar frames that I will be listing, and each is available individually. Please see my listings for the others: "Boulevard des Italiens", "Courses a Chantilly", and "Grande Fete au Chateau de Versailles".
