AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare and important lithographic stone for an antique French-made printing matrix. It is finely engraved with a superb orientalist motif depicting a winged mythical figure before a palace and palm-tree décor, with the stylized initials "BG" at the center, which corresponded to a maker's mark.

The stone bears workshop number 494 and retains on the back its transfer papers.

A fine piece in good condition for a collector. Just a small nick, which confirms its use.
