Lithograph Prints of French 19th Century Furniture Design Drawings

A pair* of fabulous original lithograph prints from a portfolio of French furniture design. The prints date from the late 19th century and show the design and technical drawings for a Henri II style dresser.

Louis Bertin was a French draftsman and furniture maker producing designs for furniture in various styles from Louis XIII to Louis XVI as well as Renaissance and Empire. The design is beautifully drawn showing all the intricate carved detail of a piece of furniture in the Renaissance style of Henri II. The print is accompanied by the technical drawing sheet showing construction details and they would look great displayed as a pair. Both prints are in very good antique condition with just some yellowing around the edges. One print has some small pencil notations showing calculations, which are original. The prints measure 40cm x 30cm.

These are very rare and desirable prints that would look fabulous mounted and framed. They could be displayed in any setting, providing a fascinating glimpse into historical furniture design. *The price stated is for the pair of prints as shown in the photos.
