AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Circa 1895, 22x16cm.
"Alger, arabes devant un café", a very pretty animated view by Photochrom Zurich.
Very beautiful photolithographic print from the period, free and not mounted (rare).
Very nice preservation of contrasts, colors and levels of detail.
Signed and captioned in gold letters in a cartouche at the bottom of the print.
Small PR conservatoire, to enjoy.
Will be shipped with a neutral pH sleeve and a carton backing (ideal for keeping in good condition).
Founded in Zurich at the end of the 19th century, Photochrom Zürich — which became Photoglob Zürich in 1895 — specialized in distributing color views derived from black-and-white photographic negatives. Several of these prints, especially for the Orient and North Africa, reproduced images by traveling photographers such as Félix Bonfils, whose photographs served as the basis for these compositions between photography and lithography.
