"CIVILIZATION 18" PRINT: GREEK HOUSES – FLOOR PLANS.

Description:
- Engraving corresponding to Plate 18 ('Civilization') from the *Popular Illustrated Encyclopedia of Sciences and Arts* by Federico Gillman; the work was compiled based on the German *Iconographic Encyclopedia* and *Conversations-Lexikon*.
- The engraving displays various plans and depictions of houses—and parts of houses—from ancient times, such as the ancient royal house in Ithaca, restored houses in Moudja, etc.
- The title 'CIVILIZACIÓN' appears in the upper margin, and 'Lam. 18' (Plate 18) is printed in the upper right corner, identifying it as the 18th engraving in a series on civilizations.
- The lower margin contains identifying labels for the various plans of houses, parts of houses, and sections of Greek and Syrian cities, etc.
- Steel-plate etching (intaglio), although another technique may have also been employed.
- Produced in monochrome black; excellent ink application, centered with acceptable margins, and a high-quality impression. - The presence of a distinguishing mark, signature, or hallmark on the print is highly important for identifying details such as the engraver, the artist, the place of printing, and other information.
