About This Piece

Published August 30, 1856 / By George Baxter / Proprietor or Patentee / London

George Baxter

1804 Lewes - 1867 London

George Baxter, "The Lover's Mailbox" (1860),

with Baxter's stamp in the lower left corner.

Lithograph 27.2 x 37.8 cm, mounted on cardboard with overall dimensions of 46.7 x 35 cm.

George Baxter's patented printing process was developed by him and patented in 1835.

This made color prints more accessible, as they no longer needed to be hand-painted. However, his process remained quite complex: lithographs were printed from a steel plate, and then oil paint was added using individual woodblocks, one for each color.

Therefore, prints like these required the individual application of five or six woodblocks to complete.

Sold unframed.
