ENGRAVED BARBARIAN COSTUMES AND ROMAN COSTUMES.

Description:
- Engraving of Barbarian Costumes and Roman Costumes.
- The engraving shows the typical costumes of the period, both Barbarians and Romans.
- All titles and signatures are outside the plate.
- The titles are written in several languages, one of which appears to be Russian.
- In the upper margin is the legend 'ITALIEN - ITALIA'.
- In the lower margin is the legend 'Costume of the Barbarians - Costumes Barbares - Barbarische Trachten' 'Roman Costumes - Costumes Romains - Romische Trachten'.
- The number '1' is printed in the upper right corner, which suggests that the engraving is number 1 of a series.
- Augustin François Lemaître: French engraver, lithographer, designer, publisher and photographer. He depicted many landscapes, monuments, architecture and people, especially during his many travels in Europe.
- Intaglio etching on steel, although a different technique could also have been used.
- It is probably an engraving from a book.
Conservation and damage:
- General condition: Good.
- The ink is very good and the print is well stamped.
- It is in single-colour black, with very good ink.
- The upper side of the paper is parallel to its opposite side, resulting in a regular engraving paper.
- It has good margins, both on the sides and at the top and bottom.
- The engraving has a medium-thickness paper of regular quality, glued at the corners to another paper.
- The engraving is dirty, and the edges are much dirtier, with very small tears, and the tips are slightly deteriorated with slight bends. It has small damp and rust stains.
- If a light washing and bleaching were applied, the result would be very good.
