Pilatus

Alpine panorama of the Pilates chain from Eigenthal.

Drawn and engraved in stone by G. Hoffmann, 1836.

Published by N. Hosch in Basel.

Overall size: 396 x 697 mm

Reference: Lithographie in der Schweiz, pictured on pages 86/87

Only one example listed on OCLC.

Due to its intrinsic nature, stone lithography was rare used for panoramas, not least due to the tendency for the soft limestone to break. This particular work is as such exceedingly rare and only listed in one library catalogue worldwide (University of Basel Library, Switzerland).

Evidence of earlier mounting to verso. Minor edge wear (restored). Central fold a little off center.
